Looks like 魔弾 and not 千剣 is the series that's going to end up late, according to the author's proclamation in some other author's blog. Hopefully it still comes out this December!

Madan, Aria, Kenshin and Asobi... not a bad update IMO....

dragon1412 · 2013-10-28, 12:29

Wrong, this update is really bad for my wallet.

Merry Christmas to me

Damn, so there's no Naga in December huh.
Though there's Madan so thats sweet.

Hemisphere · 2013-10-29, 03:51

Well, Maisaka-sensei did say that Naga 5 would come out either 2013 or 2014. Maybe he's too busy writing 夜姫と亡国の六姫士 3 and ロムニア帝国興亡記 2?

I realized that Naga is his only ongoing work that is getting really high reviews. I hope that he concentrates on Naga over the other two....
And the new LN Youta illustrates for was pretty good(the one published by Fujimi Shobo).

YagimotoKazuhiro · 2013-10-29, 04:16

At first when Hidan was licensed I was like, "Meh".

Then I read UMD, Haganai, ZnT, HenNeko and IS. "Not bad".

Later on IS was taken off. "Sigh".

After that, Mahou Sensou and No Game No Life. "Hmm".

Not before Shurabara came. "Finally has something that lives up to its name".

Actually if you ask me, most of the LNs that I read are from MF J. I actually prefer MF J over Dengeki. Famitsu and Fantasia are not bad themselves.

And the part about MF J having loads of ecchi elements is true. Shurabara, Hidan, Soukyuu no Lapis Lazuli, ZnT, HenNeko... More and more

Mmmm, I would say that's more because Naga is easily accessible and has a more 安定 feel to its story than the other two, which are more divisive because:
- 夜姫と亡国の六姫士 follows a primarily all-female main cast, much like ガブリエラ戦記 and its predecessors, and it also

Spoiler:

- ロムニア帝国興亡記 throws the reader right in the middle of the action, leaving buildup and background to the following volumes which can be totally jarring for new readers unused to the author's style

So compared to the other two, Naga is more like Kou Maisaka's 戦記 with MF Bunko J's distinct harem/fanservice approach, hence why it's probably more approachable and more popular to more readers; at least, that's my take on the matter.

Well, that and it's Nobunaga! Familiar ground definitely helps.

JoksPacifist · 2013-11-02, 19:32

Is there anything from the current (translated) MFJ lineup would you guys reccomend ?
Can be any kind of harem. Having the MC not a dense wuss and main heroine overly violent loli tsudere are preferable. Use of science is a plus.

I'm learning towards Gakusen Toshi Asterisk but I'm afraid to have a Ichika like MC.

asterisk is a good read pretty much opposite of IS

Please. The only similarity between the two is the art and the harem. The MC is actually pretty strong.

n0m@n · 2013-11-02, 20:16

Yeah, the MC is pretty likeable.
Since its from MF, it shares the similarity of having lots of strong women over strong men. But the MC proves and demonstrates that he isn't Ichika since he doesn't get wiped on the floor by girls. Though the MC(Ayato) has a dense side, it doesnt irritate you at all.
Luckily this post I made more than years ago became true. It surpassed IS plot-wise and character wise(their personality) and certainly is one of the good LN that's currently being published by MF. Its also fun to read battle-wise as well.

cloud04 · 2013-11-02, 20:18

esp vol 2

n0m@n · 2013-11-02, 20:29

Yes. Very true. It wont be weird for them to announce the anime for it next year seeing how the LN is selling very well.

there was a signing event for it..it already has a site..which is cool btw..really sci-fi like..had a LN PV as well..probably soon along w/ kenshin..kenshin's sefi sang the song as well

n0m@n · 2013-11-02, 20:34

Seriously? Nice.
Kenshin's also good(Esp v5 last duel.....I actually cried). Though the Japanese readers are giving negative review by calling the author "anti-Japanese" or something. Sometimes those Japanese readers acts more childish than the English LN readers.

sasuke706 · 2013-11-02, 20:38

Speaking of MF's preference for girls over men, has anyone checked out the Cray and Fin (クレイとフィンと夢見た手紙) novel? The art and summary comes off as shoujo-esque to me, not to mention the cover actually has only the two titular male characters on it. It does still have plenty of girls though judging by the preview spread and short descriptions of them on the blog.

I haven't checked it out since, ah...it has yet to be available via my usual methods, but from what I know its presentation gives me the impression of it being somewhat episodic and a heavy fantasy-adventure thing, kind of like Kino. But I don't have a clue if there's battles, mysteries, romance (straight or otherwise) or whatnot.

n0m@n · 2013-11-02, 20:44

I havent read it yet.

Though the reviews in the link above has mostly positive comments for being not MF-ish LN.

JoksPacifist · 2013-11-02, 20:50

I thought of IS beacuse in the illustrations, MC usually shows that "What? Heh? face with his indicative finger on his cheek.

So, what else stands in the "good" part of the current lineup ?

Also, I really don't get why MFJ is publishing this:
