Sithkazar has also recently taken over the Rakuin no Monshou wikia and is working on getting it up to date, so if you've forgotten who anyone is, or what the heck is going on, you can always check that out

Thanks

That's great news! Any plans for what you might translate after Rakuin? If you're up for suggestions, there are quite a few series I'd like to suggest that are in need of some love.

I'm not even sure that I'll continue translating after Rakuin but sure, feel free to suggest what you have in mind

That would be a shame if you stopped translating after Rakuin; Your work is greatly appreciated. However, it is obviously your choice and you should do what you want to do.

As for the series I can suggest, these are the ones that are most pressing, IMO:

• Boogiepop series. ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Boogiepop_media ) This was formerly licensed by Seven Seas and thus no one would touch it. However, Seven Seas has stopped translating and has even let their license lapse, so there should be no issue with continuing translation. Only 4 of the novels were translated by Seven Seas.
• Tasogare-iro no Uta Tsukai. ( https://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/inde ... Uta_Tsukai ) Hasn't been touched for 2 years. Only 2 volumes and part of volume 3 has been translated. The series is complete in Japan at 10 volumes.
• Hyouketsu Kyoukai no Eden. ( https://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/inde ... ai_no_Eden ) Translator disappeared 2 years ago. 6 volumes and part of volume 7 have been translated. (the parts of volume 7 are on the translator's site: https://sakurahonyaku.wordpress.com/201 ... e-meeting/ ) This takes place in the far future of Tasogare-iro no Uta Tsukai. The series is complete in Japan at 13 volumes.
• Tsurugi no Joou to Rakuin no Ko. ( https://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/inde ... kuin_no_Ko ) The translator for this abandoned it 4 years ago, after only having translated volume 1 and part of volume 2. The series is complete in Japan at 8 volumes.

Additionally, I wouldn't consider it "pressing", since no one started translation on the novels for this in the first place, but Higaeri Quest ( http://lndb.info/light_novel/Higaeri_Quest ) is complete in Japan with only 4 novels, and is written by the author of Slayers.

Hyouketsu no Kyoukai no Eden seems to have been picked up: http://sakurahonyaku.blogspot.be/. Thanks for the suggestions, I'll keep them in mind, although, since I think the Boogiepop series is still ongoing in Japan, that's definitely too large-scale a project for me.

Great Translation and editing. Made the wait this month worth it. Keep it up! Next Volume is going to be full of sweet sweet drama.

Thanks for the awesome treat!

The next volume is certainly full of drama...

I hope you enjoyed your day off

Yo Renuac. I love your work <3 But I'm going to die because of that cliffhanger :'(

Amazing quality. Thanks for the release renuac. I'll be eagerly awaiting the next one.

Thank you for the translations renuac!! i love this novel so much! >< seriously!! that last part got me so hyped up and then it just ended!! you can't do that to me!
btw i was looking at other novels by this author and came across Tales of Leo Attiel Depiction of the Headless Prince, on one site it said that this novel is associated to the universe of Rakuin no Monshou. Does anyone know how they are related to each other? also I found the first part of the first chapter translated but could not find anything else then that. I am really interested in reading it so if anyone knows if someone is working on translating it please let me know.

Thanks for the thanks, guys, but please don't forget Sithkazar for her hours of editing

Blame the author, he wrote the cliffhangers

Leo Attiel is set something like fifteen years before Rakuin and takes place on the other side of the continent, some time before the major war between Allion and Dytiann. Leo himself is a prince of Atall, which is one of the small countries between those two - it gets mentioned several times later in Rakuin, so it's interesting to see it before it fell. I don't know if anyone is translating it though.

God I love to binge read a Rankuin no Monshou volume. Many thanks for the translation and editing. The drama in this volume was very satisfying and the ending was shocking to say the least. Next volume looks like it'll focus on the movements from Mephius's Emperor Guhl, that weird priest order who I get the feeling have been controlling the emperor through his second wife Melissa (that skank ) and the Garberan side of things. And do I spy Vileena in armour? Looks dope.

^ Those are some pretty spot-on guesses.

A great volume this time. I didn't realize it until after I finished but Thanks as always, renuac, and Sithkazar too.

I just marathoned the whole series (the first three volumes I'd read once or twice before, but the rest was all new to me) up until the latest, 9th volume. It's been a long time since I was able to post here, since no matter what I did, the forum wouldn't let me log in, but it seems to be fixed now. Anyway, just wanted to thank the translators for their work and say that I've enjoyed the ride a lot: this is still my favourite Japanese novel series (light or otherwise).

I'm not sure what to think of the mysterious sorcerers and elders and Barbaroi, their part of the plot seems to run its own course, only occasionally intersecting with the main plot... Normally I'm big fan of this sort of mystery, but I dislike the feeling that everyone, including Orba, are dancing on the palm of some character(s) we haven't even been properly introduced yet. I'm not sure it's a good idea to have the plot being controlled by forces that the main character himself has no clue about. But, well, it's a minor issue. Overall, this is some damn high quality fantasy.
