Yes pointy ears chap... er, AntiMagic chapter. Pointy ears included though.

Link in here.

Now, there are two issues currently identified on the blog I'm going to address in the near future. One - I'll try to unify and do a better management of epubs/pdf's, as well as add a quality requirement for them (Although, what I mean is that they should have functional furigana for series that require furigana - i.e. elysion and antimagic), not sure how will I do it yet... but currently it's all over the place, links going up and down, there's a lot of different versions and formats...

Second issue is something Bareus pointed out, an issue with footnotes in full text version whereas some footnotes direct you to wrong chapter. It's something I'll have to address manually, and it'll be done when I have some free time.

That's it. Enjoy the chapter.

A very small release, sadly, but it's a good way to mark the beginning of translation efforts.

And so, AntiMagic Volume 6 prologue can be found here.

Yup, it's only 3 pages. Also, as usual - I don't promise when chapter 1 nor any other chapter will be out - even I slow down and take breaks once in a while. But the translation has started and will be slowly progressing...

I was wondering if I should release prologue along with chapter 1, but... I wanted a chance to use volume 6's cover on the front page post as soon as possible! I just love this volume's cover. The art is really amazing, and Lapis is lovely on this illustration... Although there's less darkness in this volume, I'm sure it'll be a good read just like the previous volume was.

EDIT 16/11/2014: kpoed has prepared AntiMagic Volume 5 PDF and EPUB for everyone, which can be found under the respective links, as well as the AntiMagic's main project page.

Also, because he's awesome he prepared new versions of PDF and EPUB for Only Sense Online Volume 1 and 2 (with all fresh edits in for more reading satisfaction). You can find them on the project page.

Now, that I've finished translating the epilogue, afterword and sense build data illustrations the entire volume is finished. I'll put up the full text in a moment. Although, as usual I wouldn't hurry too much with making PDFs and EPUBs as those, unlike my full text page don't update automatically. Hopefully editor-kun will check through the entire volume, also I know that the resident tormentor... um, comment editor Bareus said that he will re-read the entire thing and point out all my mistakes :(! Anyway, it was a good volume even though the book's pacing was slower than usual.

The second issue, I'll be spending a few days probably to check through AntiMagic 5 as promised, so that the PDFs and EPUBs can go live and spread throughout the universe.

And the last thing, yup. The next thing up for translation is AntiMagic Volume 6, some of you probably noticed that as usual, my avatar has already changed to reflect the currently worked on novel (precisely it's always the volume's heroine or one of the girls taken from the said volume's illustration). As some of you thought and suspected, it is a volume focused on Lapis'. As for those who thought it won't be Lapis' volume... what, thought that Lapis won't get a full-fledged volume for herself just because she's a sword?! AS IF! Lapis gets awesome character developement in volume 6, there's a lot to look forward to. The tsun-deredere possessive goddess of sentient swords whose tongue is as sharp as the edge of her sword form. There's gonna be lots of mysteries about her revealed too... for example why does she have a human form, about her previous contractor, and why does she resembl... ehem. Enough teasing for now. You'll have to read to know more ^_^.

When will I start volume 6... is unknown maybe super soon, maybe I'll take a break... but it's coming.

All right, this marks the end of AA volume 5, it was long, it was dark. I believe it to be extremely interesting volume, probably the best so far, however the damage I took from its darkness is severe. The epilogue is here, and afterword is here. Make sure to read them both, reading afterword is basic courtesy one needs to pay to the author who brought the book to life.

Bah, even Alice took damage... yes, nekama's alice, look what happened to her. She's been brainwashed by the darkness. (rather, I spent around 15 minutes photoshopping her), but oh well. Alice has succumbed, muhahahaha. Wish I had more time to do a draw a completely new version of her, but sadly, can't do everything at once - so there's just the recolouring.

As for PDF, EPUB, KEPUB. Wait some time until I rest and re-read the entire book, editing it. It might take a few days, maybe a week, maybe 'lil more. But it's best to wait until I finish edits.

Okay, next stop on the road is Only Sense Online volume 3, I don't know yet when, I don't know how, there's nothing I can promise as to when releases will start or if it will be released at all until the public raws appear on the internets. Only thing I can promise is - I'm going to start translating asap, even if it won't result in releases. In other words - nothing is certain, once releases start - it'll be the usual pace... probably.

Like this, we're nearing an end of of the current Antimagic's volume. Chapter 6 is here, and get ready to cry,

This is not yet over, because epilogue still has 18 pages, and is probably the longest epilogue so far, it has also a lot of relevance - so make sure to read it.

Before I get to translating it, I need to sleep... probably could force it out somehow, but nay, I'll pass.

Did I mention I got my copy of OSO Vol 3? Probably did mention somewhere, but not in the main post on the blog. Well, I did get it, and in a certain way, it's beyond my expectations - despite the fact those were quite high..

For now, enjoy ch6 of AA35TP.
