that's surprising, considering both have same ecchi vibe inside. especialy ectas has robot mc, right?i mean doing ecchi sfuff with robot is more likable for japanese then.

but sadly, no one translate ectas so i can't see the differences between those two.

He is not a robot, it's just an armor and he can take it if he want. The guy who translates Isekai Maou is translating Ecstas, translation is at chapter 2 of volume one, he is redoing everything since the other translators before him heavily used MTL, he also said that he plans to release 1 chapter per month, there's also the manga adaptation which has 13 chapters translated.

Being honest, Ecstas is not as lewd as Hybrid x Heart(well...for now) and although I really like HxH, Ecstas is more fun in my opinion. I also have to say that the illustrations are great too, even though it's not Hisasi, this illustrator is as good as him.

I don't remember it that well too, but here are all the comments he made about Ecstas in the afterwords of the HxH volumes:

''And then not only the anime of Masou, there is new news!

That is!

The opening of a new series!

Of all thing at the same time parallel with Masou, I begin to write a new work! Doing absurd thing like this……feels like I will be told that but, if it’s me that has overcome Masou’s first volume’s ordeal then surely I can do it! …..maybe.

The new work has no direct connection with Masou, it really is a new series! It seems similar with other works but it’s completely different, it’s typical of Kuji Masamune, with a little peculiar hair color, and then expect that it will become an eros work!''

''And then what is important, is [Ecstas Online] that was released at the same time with this ninth volume! Please treat me well with this series too. In regards with the characters and the story they are more interesting than Masou!? Is what I’m thinking so please, I think you can enjoy it together with [Masou Gakuen HxH]!''

''Also, this isn’t a topic about Masou, but 『Ecstas Online』 volume 3 is launched at the same time with this volume 11! This time is the climax for the opening arc, so there are consecutive developments that are really fired up!

Demon king Helshaft whose castle, subordinates and country were stolen and became alone. Even so the lone demon king fought the challenge in order to protect his important person! In the end will a miracle occur!?

I think if it’s Masou’s readers, then there will be a lot of them that are reading Ecstas, but those who haven’t please try to read it by all means! Its content has become unconventional when compared to other works. It’s also different from VRMMO of internet light novel, and I think it’s turning into an interesting story that cannot be found anywhere else, so please kindly take care of it by all means!''

''Ecstas Online is already in the middle of progress, but I will work hard on this too! Last month the newest volume 4 also just got released. Those who haven’t read can easily catch up you know!?

Although it has eros scene, but as expected this work has a different charm from Masou. Even those who first read it for the eros will give a high evaluation in the points other than eros saying the story is interesting! Intense! That’s this series trait.

By the way Ecstas Online is also in the middle of comic serialization by Oniyasu Kakashi-san at the monthly Dragon Age.''

No problem, I wish you an enjoyable time reading both the novel and the manga adaptation of Ecstas.

I found out that there's another special side story. It explains that there's a chance the main cast can open an Entrance between worlds again.

[Skyterror3381]

Baka translated a few side stories last week or the week before - are you referring to those? Or an entirely different one?

If you’re talking about a magic weapon reappeared, it was a misunderstanding. Spoiler alert: It was actually an old weapon got reactivated by a core from a dead pilot (or something like that). As of now, the way to AU remains shut, to my awareness.

Yeah, those are the ones I'm talking about. But still, it hints the possibly.

[ThorPL123]

I have hope that 14th volume will be focused on opening entrance(and reuniting) beetwen Lemuria and Vatlantis and/or focus on Kizuna and harem relationship(more romantic and sweet moments). As for new antagonists, i think that currently our heroes are so strong that there is no enemy that can face them fairly(and not be defeated instantly, unless our heroes start to "job" or be effected by The Worf Effect), and we don't need "Sorting Algorithm of Evil" to create stronger foes than gods.

[Sakamaki Izayoi]

Kuji mentioned in his twitter that writing volume 14 is almost being like a hobby, which is always nice since it shows that he is enjoying himself and the process, and I don't know if any of you knew this but he wrote the script of episode 6 of the Ore no imouto suki nano wa anime. Changing the topic a little, I made a Ecstas Online thread so there's no need to talk about it here, just letting you all know.

[Sakamaki Izayoi]

Taekan made a poll to decide which series he will translate next, Ecstas Online is one of the options so I'll leave the link here if anyone wants to vote, if it wins then it's one more Kuji lewd series for us to read xD

[Mazryonh]

So no chance of this ever getting a second season for its anime adaptation? If they switched to releasing episodes as OVAs they might not have to use so much censorship.

Erm, did you mean to post that here?

[Sakamaki Izayoi]

Ok guys, Ecstas made it to the last poll, lets all vote so that way we can all enjoy another wild and lewd ride.

[Sparteh]

Could someone explain of what happened in the end? Someone on discord said that this ended in single heroine end. Considering all boderline hentai that happened, how is that even possible? Tags combo here of "true harem" and "non harem end" looks really paradoxical in nature. How can something be true harem if it is non harem?

[bakapervert]

In the end it was made clear that he loved Aine the most. But because of the nature of the hybrid gear, he kept having sex with other girls too even then. And the other girls also haven't given up on him. So its true harem.

Spoiler:

It was true harem ending, don't know why that guy told you it was a single heroine end, maybe he confused HxH with another series.

I never went beyond first few volumes so I don't know. It is just that when I heard this, I was quite surprised that some JP novel had guts to pull that off.
