Great summaries larethian, thank you very much, it's much appreciated as I can't read Japanese and this newfound series (novel and manga adaptation) entirely preoccupied my thoughts today. For your efforts, I salute you sir.
Illustrations contained in the 6th volume indicate that some interesting, even dramatic developments will take place, so I hope that in the near future someone will shed some light on them for us ;-) Edit: Furthermore, volume 7 is on the horizon: http://dengekibunko.dengeki.com/newr...4-04-869336-3/ Spoiler for cover:

I'm reserving a place in this thread to read the spoilers from Light Novel
the manga translation is going slow while the Light Novel already sailed too far Ikta is an interesting MC which might be good at back-line while Yatori would lead the front-line but I guess it won't be going that smooth yet About the pairing, Ikta-Yatori is perfect but no development so far in manga |

Already finished v6 long time ago. But went on family trip and didnt make a summary
well maybe ill do with v7 if in good mood like previously Not sure when ill get to read v7. Ebook has some lag. I got rokka 5 only 1.5 mths later (though not read yet) Maybe i might go back to haedcopy just for this if i cant wait anyway torway got great development in v6 and his brothers were not really that much of assholes as thought previously. V6 ended at an annoying cliffhangar when Ikta just started talking to the PM. New Illustrator seems to be improving. |

EDIT: Yes, the difference between the covers of volume 6 & 7 is like the difference between heaven and earth. I hope that the illustrations inside will follow. Last edited by Sejuro; 2015-02-15 at 19:47. Reason: additional commentary |

First of all, thank you for the elaborate reply! Even if not all of my pesky questions were answered, I’m really glad that you sparred some of your time and satisfied my curiosity.
Spoiler:
Yes, I agree, although if you cut yourself short on flexibility it could easily bring you and others to a downfall. To forsake your dear friends and loved ones for some "higher purpose", I really despise such dogmatism and fanaticism. BTW: Chapter 3 of volume 1 is up on Baka-Tsuki, thanks Veracitea! |

When I see that picture. I don't have a reaction. I just past through it. its just meat.
I started reading the manga and its good. Thanks for the summary lare. I will read it later after I read what's been translated in BT. The manga is good and this type of story is my favorite. No stupid fan service and just plain old war. Reminds me of another good work that I don't remember of the title anymore because I don't remember seeing it being translated but the manga is translated. If someone know. Please reply and let me know. that story is about the prince who defend his country with his bluff alone against the undefeated princess and he even goes his way to meet the 2nd princess of the enemy empire. I don't remember much from the manga but that's what I remember. Sorry for the lack of clues. But I like the prince who uses his wits to win. His a snake and his father is a cobra. Family of snakes. This story reminds me of that or other stories that has brilliant tacticians. I really like it if it doesn't involve useless fan service and just focus on plot, politics and war.
