Tokyo Ravens [Light Novel]

[Ougon]

Just proofread chapter 1 and 5...... Few things here and there.... Are off..

But, it can't be helped, since its suffering from the grinding process of being translated a second time (first from Japanese to Chinese, and then from Chinese to English).

My lord, this is some impressive speed. Props to the Translator. -pours a cup of coffee-
While I'm still semi-conscious, how doe Suzuka develop as a character over the series?
She's my favorite character.
I have some ideas but confirmation is always nice.
Edit: Met my expectations so far so that's a good sign.

[Iron Maw]

You know... I wouldn't be surprised if this caught up to manga scanlataions in a week or two if lygophile still continues at the same pace. Heck he'll he pass the manga RAWs in 3 weeks.

Not surprised.

Even more reason why he needs more editors.

[Iron Maw]

Heads up for anyone interested, but it looks like vol 2 has been started with first chapter out. Also WTF @ the panel alignment.


Edit: Nevermind.

[Athena]

Ugh...new project page layout.

Just looking at the history page makes me wow alot, and tbh translation is as fast as reading alone

thanks again for the translation Lyg

[Iron Maw]

So next weeks episode titles:

13話 Black shaman ASSAULT 法師
14話 Black shaman ASSAULT 術比
15話 _DARKNESS_EMERGE_ 邂逅
16話 _DARKNESS_EMERGE_ 神扇

Looks like a 8bit is doing the one volume two episodes schtick again with vol 6.

But I heard that half episode 12 was part vol 6, if so then this isn't too bad. Can any LN readers confirm? and would mind translating the titles too?

I also think the vol 7 will most likely be 4 episodes since it's longest page wise.

EDIT: Thanks for heads up about Ch 2.

[versionf]

Nah, episode 12 was just vol 5, with half the contents removed. The 4 episodes should be vol 9 because there's too much going on in that volume, but we shouldn't underestimate 8bit.

13 - priest
14 - duel
15 - encounter
16 - divine fan

Well, vol 6 is more or less around the same length Vol 2 & 3. Going by how they adapted vol 2 (eps 4-5) we can probably expect ep 13 to cover the first half of the novel while 14 will be the other. 8bit will likely mix part of aftermath/epilogue with vol 7 I guess.

13 - priest
14 - duel
15 - encounter
16 - divine fan

Thanks.

[versionf]

At least half episode (I was expecting one episode but meh) is needed for chapter 5, so episode 13 will be chapter 1-3 and I can see they will cut most of chapter 4 into first few minutes in episode 14.

[chancs]

The translations were/are going nearly by a chapter per day. Superrrr Speed!!

[JTeague]

So a lot of people have already asked what Harutora's become like since volume 10.

What I'm really curious about is Kakugyouki's personality.
What's he like now that we get to spend some time with him? Is he basically a different version of Toji?
Either way I'm curious. He seems like a fun guy.

[Used Can]

I suppose the first half of the next episode will involve Harutora pondering about the possibility of Natsume being Hokuto's user.

I wonder if Tenma will receive any focus.

Really? I think baka-tora is too dense for that.

He's a cool guy, even Kagami agrees. He likes to live freely and watch interesting events, it's not like he cares and wants to help Harutora or anything.

No that's pretty much what he does. I have no idea why people keep thinking we are dealing with Ichika here. Harutora doesn't conveniently forget about what he's learned, that's why people hide things from him to begin with.

Heck if you look at RAW for the Ch 43, he can't get it out of his mind!

He's suppose to, but the pacing will be pretty fast that it won't be much. Well there is still vol 9 for him.

EDIT: Same with Miyo.

[Used Can]

Yeah, I assumed that much, considering the anime's pacing.

Anyhow,

Spoiler for Volume 5 anime adapation:

I was a bit sad they skipped Natsume's "stay by my side" line to Harutora when they were lying on their futon during training camp.
I think that's one of the things that adds to how sad her death is - and I suppose lines like those one made it even more obvious for Harutora to realise she's Hokuto's user.

[Iron Maw]

Chapter 21 of the manga is out.

I'm a little confused about something though. What did Natsume mean about by " we both don't owe each anything now"?

Spoiler for vol 5 bed scene:

Yeah the romantic tension in that scene was even stronger in the manga and LN than the anime. So much that Kon had to show up and cockblock the hell of Natsume.
