thanks for the summary Lare. if the novel isn't being translated anymore then ... well I will wait. Its a normal thing anyway maybe I should read some summaries (if there are any) because I'm not familiar with the other character. I only read the translation from bt and the manga. (Maybe I should look into the thread if there are any summary)

I loved toradora and picked up the LN series. Right now I am waiting for the 6th volume to arrive (should be here by friday). I am anxious to see how the plot develops from before. Hopefully more people would be intrested in series now that some chapers have been released in manga.
I can understand about 95% of what's written in the novel despite only studying for half a year. I don't feel too comfortable trying to fully translate the LN just yet. I could try writing summaries instead if people are intrested. IIRC there are no summaries out apart from the short one of volume 4 and more extensive one of volume 5 written in here. |

To be honest, I rather not have an anime. With the amount of love comedies getting adapted, this will flunk sales targets for sure.
And volume 6 has some unnecessary pandering by adding another potential love interest (Nee-san archetype) and making Akari more brocon than ever. I rather the dynamics be kept between Naoki and the trio: Momo, Midori and Azuki. However, the development was still very entertaining. Next volume, we will have Naoki playing snow white in school festival and Midori playing prince Despite having Toradora vibes, this a very mediocre LN, but its entertainment value is no doubt high if you are very into the Otaku culture. I don't feel like doing summaries because I'm already translating the manga. |

Spoiler for TLDR: nope, I don’t think it’s bland, not in the slightest:

Azuki pretty much fell for Naoki after volume 2. She took the initiative and asked him out for a date, which he left in the middle to save Momo. This led her to believe that Naoki was interested in Momo and she began avoiding him. Thereafter, the 'misunderstanding' was cleared up and she went back to taking the initiative again. For Midori, the first 'major' interaction was in v1, after the karaoke, when Naoki thanked her for coming. In v2 (IIRC), she was left out during pairing in art class, and Naoki paired up with her, where they are supposed to draw portraits of each other. This was the second interaction. Following that, we had the fireworks viewing at summer festival, though I can't remember whether it was Naoki who invited her or Momo (i think it was Naoki but I can't be sure). Then, later, Midori invited Naoki to the school festival of her best friend in another high school, to get ideas what to do for their own school festival. It was then revealed through her close friend that Naoki was probably the first friend Midori made in high school. Midori is definitely warming up to Naoki but I do not think there are any romantic feelings yet. Quote:
EDIT: Oh, you are talking about the manga, I haven't have time to look at chapter 9 and beyond yet. 8 should be released soon. I'm on business trip now until next week. Probably won't be watching any anime till I'm back. I'm getting busier again. |

What happen in vol 02 that makes Azuki interested on Naoki? Midori is a slow paced development but does Naoki still love her? because if this story has toradorish in it then at some point. Naoki should start noticing Momo? What are the feeling of Naoki at the moment for the girls? EDIT: After reading your thoughts about the work. You put a lot of effort on it if you ask me or at least it shows on what you like about the work. If you ask me, Naoki is a nice guy Spoiler for thoughts:

Well, I'm just trying to be objective. And part of the reason why I'm TLing the manga is because of an agreement i want to keep. I enjoy it as much as i enjoy the other romcoms I'm reading. Why i look forward to it is because of the toradora vibes

Having read what you wrote lare, i was enlightened.
A perfect example would be Oregairu. That LN has great reviews, it showcases quirky character interactions, issues in society and etc. It became so famous that the MC even made it into 4th place of being the most popular character in the LN category. Normally, this would be suitable of being an anime, with it's hit novel I'm sure it's gonna be the next toradora/haruhi in the recent years. Then the anime came, having read the novels it's pretty much "okay" for me. But for some people, some have positive reviews but mostly they have negative reviews of it. Long story short, some LN/manga can't be adapted to another. Sometimes, things are just fine on just the way they already are. |

I predict that Naoki is going to get really close to Midori, but she finds Momo cosplaying (activating Midori's otaku hating nature), thus Naoki seeing how much of a bitch Midori is, and abandons her (for Momo, but I'm shipping for Azuki). Aside from that, does anyone have any updates on the new volume?

From what I gather on the adaptation. It looks like Hachiman is lacking in his quirk. The selling points of that series isn't captured as a whole by the studio. I gather that shaft would do good at that type of series. It probably depends on the studio on how good the adaptation would be. Some of the light novel adaptation that I watched are horrible bad that its funny but still I detest it as an adaptation. While some studio do good on it and they do justify the work. So it all ends with the staff and studio doing the job.
