Free fans translation matching japanese release speed also available online
2. No words from government official on that, just the decision by Kadokawa's local branches, judging from the sociopolitical environment.

So the biggest impact in the event is that they would need to pay more to get books...
I didn't know that a LN copy in china cost this much. How do they profit?
Btw, chinese are one among the biggest hypocrits in the world. I heard that console games are banned in china(for an unknow reason), on the other hand, chinese spend tons of money on MMO games. How is that possible?
