What a "rokujouma" is, is explained in the first 20 pages after all, so hopefully the japanese in the title won't turn people off.
I don't think "Invaders of the 6 tatami room" would fare much better.

Any help for someone who want to subscribe but don't have credit card?

Try getting a rechargeable debit card. Those work as long as they're visa or mastercard...

I'm sorry I'm a noob when it comes to this kind of topics. So J-Novel is a kind of spotify/netflix in whitch you pay monthly to read their content? Or how does it work? Do I need to buy volumes individuallu? Sorry if this is offtopic but I'm really interested, I totally love the idea of supporting Takehaya by officially paying his product.

Ken Sanders · 2017-05-04, 00:38

Does this means that we cannot read the new translation in Baka-Tsuki anymore?

You can either pay for membership and get access to read everything before it's completely finalised as pre-pubs (there's also premium membership which gets you a credit for a premium ebook (high res illustrations and bonus content) each month, and you get ~full access to the forums, so you can ask the translators, editors etc things)

Yes, volumes 1-22 will be free to read on j-novel club, 23 onwards will require membership to read the pre-pub parts (there's a 1 week free trial atm) and after each ebook is published, you'll have to buy it on whichever digital distribution that you both use. (Amazon, Kobo, Bookwalker, Premium direct from them, they're also negotiating to get on to google play)

Now that I think about it, there are already 25 volumes of this series, how close do you think think the story is to ending?.

MPT · 2017-05-04, 01:58

About one more arc for the main story, so 3-4 volumes, plus however much of Hercules is published in the main series.

NeoAnkara · 2017-05-04, 03:22

Reminder that the total of volume translated is 25 since there are vol 7.5, 8.5. & Shunkashuutou which are translated by MPT.

Also the status of translation in BT is still active and not changed to licenced yet.

So far they do the same what they did with Arifureta. They just deleted that one volumes, which are published by J-novel atm.
But this is a good chance to give some money to the author and ppl that work on this project, so why not support them by buying a epub ?
I know that a lot of ppl think that free is good, but still, people like author or translators need to live from something too.

For me it's not that I don't want to but more along the line I can't even if I really want to. Why did every transaction online need credit card anyway? I've searching for several alternative method for paying but I don't understand any of it at all.

Just first sentence has been for you, the rest of my post has been in general meaning, sorry if it looks that all is directed at you.

The only problem I have is I am concern about the prices are in dollars and I live in the UK which uses pounds so I don't know if can pay.

Well, I live in Slovakia and we use Euro. I can pay it without problem, because bank uses conversion when you pay it. Well, at least my bank never had a problem, even when I pay Dollars, Yen or whatever. (I think that every bank does it like this)

Thanks for answering. I already made an account and read the free part of Volume 23 (which was enjoyable). The real problem now is regular membership or premium membership?

Well, I go for premium cuz of 1 free credit monthly, that you can use to buy their books.

Yeah, got that done paying less than £10 each month for light novels e-books seems pretty nice but I always enjoyed having physical copies that being said I have 10 physical copies on backlog to read.

Well, Seven Seas is printing Grimgar and Occultic nine for them, so I guess it is just matter of time till they will print Rokujouma.

NeoAnkara · 2017-05-04, 10:21

Oh yeah this is the conversation that we have roughly 7 month ago about the possibility of license and such.
