It would be nice if you could translate it. I'm not trying to sound rude, just saying that the community of BT would most likely appreciate it. Including since you are willing to translate it.

Nothing wrong with more teaser pages :)

I don't know what to say about the volume... I kinda liked it, but kinda didn't like it at the same time. I will definitely read the next volume when it comes out, but I wouldn't want to do a full translation project (even assuming I had the time).

Still, the scene from page 169-205 is just too good so I'm going to translate it as a teaser. I'm doing it in fast mode so not really caring about good grammar or phrasing or editing anything, because really I should be focusing on date a live...

There is a requirement for starting the project. One must have a chapter of the concerned series translated (some part of it atlaeast ) to be put on the page (otherwise it will be a gift box without the actual gift :lol: :lol: )

As from where the translation comes, you can either do it by self or you can ask some1 to do it. Please keep in mind that you must take prior permission from the 1 willingly translating for uploading on BT.

Hmm, chapter 3 goes from page 149-213, but for the teaser i'm only doing 169-205... how do I show that on the page :/

Anyways, the teaser part is only 33% finished yet, but i'm hoping to finish it by end of this week. :)

Really? i actually like Tsuki Tsuki very much but it seem like no one pays it a visit at all therefore i am thinking of starting a teaser project about it. However, my japanese is suck and because no one pays its page a visit therefore i cant communicate with any willing translators at all. If anu1 read this post pls give me your opinion. If possible can you also show me the good web to study japanese. To be honest i am just 15 years old and i cant afford to find a Japanese language teaching lessons in school or outside right now. Therefore i need to learn it on internet. Pls give me your best choice :D :D :D

hope someone pick this one up. I read some of the spoilers at animesuki forum, and that really caught my attention about those two brother and sister gamers and all. If anyone is interested, please translate this LN......

Finally got my hands on this novel volume 1.

After reading it, I am considering dropping the series already. If someone even bothered with volume 2 onwards, mind telling me your views, comments and some spoilers on future volumes? Because volume 1 was next to crap to me... The plot seems good, but the development and happenings are beyond lame...

My comments on volume 1:

I thought that when you suspend disbelief and stopped logically trying to analyze things, then it's pretty interesting. There are so many plot holes and whatnot, but WHO CARES!

for example, in vol 2
Spoiler! :
Battle of Shiritori where what you say must be a term with a physical form/effect and if it wasn't there, it will appear, and if it was there, would disappear.

For example, by the middle of the game they were in a safari jungle, naked, eating curry, while Steph was being chased around by an army of natives...

And then, the ending was caused by removing the earth's crust and mantel, then removing all the oxygen from the air, and causing a hypernova...

Now I am reminded of a quote/logic from Slayers:

If everyone knows how to cast a Dragon Slave(Can easily destroy a town), and everyone just casts a bloody Dragon Slave at whatever happens whenever happens, the world ends way too easily...

Thank you, I know that I can easily drop the series then...

P.S. I don't mind ideas that breaks logical reasoning, or a world of games etc. But at least stick to their own rules and make a proper world out of it. There are too many issues, so much so I am feeling, "Wow, how dumb!" than be impressed by it. I was impressed by the first half of the chess battle, but the later parts were "WTF are you trying to do!?"

Hmm I have to ask where and which page that such a rules were written?

That's no plot hole
I read the jap ver. , on p.110 where Djibril explain the rules she only said that " 'Things that not exist' , 'fictional' 'have no image' can't be materialization" and "if you said a nonsense word and phenomenon it will be count as an invalid answer"

If you read it carefully, there were no such rules like "a valid word must be term with a physical form/effect". In fact the only invalid word is the fictional/nonsense word that didn't really exist that world.
Seirei circuit , mantle crust , Oxygen , Coulomb force are all the real exist things.

I tried googling Seirei circuit and Coulomb Force...

Seirei circuit was not found... Was it a term in the novel?

Coulomb force is a force. The electrons may exist, but the force is something generated by the electrons? If so, it is not a real exist thing, but a "phenomenon" that should be counted as an invalid answer?
