I thought there's already a thread about this, since I'm seeing TP always wearing this avatar.

Born with a scary face, Sakamoto Akizuki has always been feared in his school, however one night he witnesses a girl's death. He is faced with a choice where he is asked a question by a mysterious person, "for half of your life span will you revive her?" After following through with his decision, the girl is brought back to life. And now begins the romantic comedy between Akizuki and the girl Yumesaki.

Fascinating. At first it sounded like Tomodachi, but its not. After reading so many web novels, this is pretty refreshing.

IKR, as you expect from Ping, got a good taste as always when it comes to LN. (Biblia, Magdala, CloPla, Hikaru, Index, etc.)

[Amario]

One of my favorite light novels. I may release the scans for the special volume some point this month haven't gotten round to reading the SP as of yet since my hard copy just came a few days ago.

[dragon1412]

my favorite as well, Ping really got good taste.

Synopsis & H2SO4 artwork got me curious then...

TP's warning:

This series is infamous amongst Japanese and Taiwanese readers for smashed computers. Viewer discretion is advised.

...see, now I'm really interested. Must be one of those "short yet sweet" ones. (Or from that maybe "sweet" isn't the best word?)

alrite. off to find the raws.

[capablanca]

Yeah, the ending is bitter"sweet". Prepare for it.

[kan-chan]

Oh this seems really interesting! may I ask more info about demographic, ecchi level, harem, romance, mistery and so on ?
Thanks a lot

[vivaldi_in_tropical]

try finding ln named akairo/romance
it's smiliar story.
already old tough
btw what's the content of the special vol ? epilogue ? summary please !

[Tenzen12]

WHAT THE HELL?!

I almost facepalmed own brain from head. Though I do have suspicious it was fake reason. Anyway that girl is true idiot.

[Breidaluk]

Nope. Airhead. And Fujoshi. Anyway that was one hell of a fatality for Mc and heroine's friend. Want to see vol 2 already.
BTW, Yumesaki is the girl that was crying and Harumi is the girl that saved Mc, right?

Honestly, post faux-retirement, I chose series not because of what fans want to read, but what I want fans to read. That's why a lot of titles are 'heretical' because they run against common consensus. A lot of these choices are deliberate, leading to a 'refreshingly' different view.

Lolicons? Black Bullet
Harem? Hikaru
Lazy protagonist? Magdala
OP protagonist? Biblia, CloPlaTra
Reincarnation? I'll die
Perverted male lead? I'll die

In this case, part of the reason for picking up this series is because Kira had it since 2013, and I thought I should just finish up the work (like I did for a certain sanitary series that causes sanity issues). There is also the issue of wanting to present a varied form of the theme 'reincarnation', which I do find most stories to be simply New Game+, something that really diminishes the value of Life in my sight. (Though the cause of death crosses the line so many times I can't say anything about it)

I already had my sights on this series for quite a while (before Kira even worked on it), and I was debating whether to do this series, or Rokka no Yuusha. Of course, Rokka was left over to the Nanomachines, and I later chose to pick up Black Bullet (which I admit is still my favorite series to work on...for the reactions of the readers, muhahahahaha). Once the latter got licensed though, this series is more of a backup (I still have another 7 backup series to choose from...I hate myself for this).

Now, working on this volume by itself was ridiculous enough that I have the Yakety Sax on loop the entire time translating this, though there are a few themes I want to convey to the readers that unfortunately, I can't at this point due to potential spoiler alerts. I think I can finish this series this year, but it'll take guts.

PS: Given that Chinese is my best language (and mother tongue), I might have a go at translating some Chinese stories XD

[Tenzen12]

Good luck and thanks.

[Einna]

The short story collection got me interested in the series and I have to say, give it a try.

Any plan on another Biblia volume? :P

[Hell_ping]

^With my sister pressing me for more Biblia, I have to...

Anyway, I'll be working on volume 2 of this series over Clockwork Planet because of one random coin flip. (My voice sounds so weird here)

Guhhhh~

It will take some time before I can read more about Imouto chan then, oh well Bokushinu isn't bad at all so it's ok but still Anchor!!!! >_<

[BlackGaruda]

This looks very interesting, but there's a lot of negative feedback on the series.

What was the ending?

I was distracted from your voice by the shiny gold & silver coin.
