Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon - Light Novel Discussion
Author: Kawakami Minoru
Illustration: Satoyasu LN official? site Quote:
Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon (Horizon on the Middle of Nowhere) is a series that has three volumes: Spoiler:
Volume 1: 1300 pages Volume 2: 2100 pages Volume 3: 2400 pages It would be the equivalent to 19~20 volumes of normal light novels. And it looks like the "prologue" finally ended after the third volume |

Well, that's quite a mountain of words for a prologue. Unfortunately, the chances of having the light novels translated by Baka-tsuki is quite small as of the moment.

"Thinking what a long prologue for volume 1" "See this post" "Go ape" Seriously,what,that's more like telling history of a non-existence world than an "opening" to the fictional universe. |

Azuma is a guy.
Also volume 4 goes on sale October, and it seems like it'll be split into 3 parts again, with the second part coming soon (probably a month after like the previous volume), and maybe 2 months after for the last part? Pretty cool chara design, whoever this is. Last edited by Kunagisa; 2011-09-10 at 14:18. |

instead of waiting for Baka-Tsuki to translate this and that, I think it's faster to study Japanese intensively. about 30 hours a week for a year, you should be able to tackle most LNs and even normal bunkos without a dictionary. half that, and it will take you 2 years, which is still faster than waiting for BT to translate the tons of light novels you want to read. if you can live with using a dictionary or if you already know Chinese, you will need less time. it'll be best if you can go to good classes for at least the first 500 hours of study to build a strong grammar foundation, which is very essential for Japanese.
BOT, I'll decide whether I want to read this after the anime ends and comments from the readers on the disparities. |

Finally finished reading the third volume and wow, I really hope that the anime will have a third season now, because this volume was just too awesome to not be animated. And more than that the “prologue” is over, is more like the “Part 1” (of 3?) is over.
We already have a lot of awesome candidates to be the “last boss”, some flags of new relationships and some important hints about the true part of the plot. I am very eager for the next volume =3 And I tried to do a simple summary (but it didn't turn out like I planned lol) for the first volume. Rough translations and there may be some mistakes, but if you still want to know something there it is Spoiler for Basic knowledge (History):

Clue for the Mortal Sin Armaments [Loizmoi(?) Oplo]: they are all Ancient Greek.
Spoiler for Meanings:
Translating from Katakana to Greek is a pain in the ass. As for the Testamenta Arma... Spoiler for More Meanings:

The first volume (1 cour) is going to be something like a general introduction, so I think it'll have enough time to show (almost?) everything. Just don't forget that in the summary there is just the serious scenes, Horizon definitely isn't just this
So it was really something like that. Thanks for translating these names. Later I'll edit the names on the previous post. |
