Never heard of this but the synopsis sounds promising and I'd be lying if I said the cover art didn't catch my eye. Plus Seven Seas rarely go wrong with their licensing.

Looking forward to it.

Is there a body behind all that cleavage?

They will release it next July. Why not have the first volume get released in January? Scanlations for this title until then I guess.

Never judge a book by its cover, but that premise is being brought down with Japanese Light Novels, this is probably another one of those.

The first thing I thought when I saw that cover was whether Asuna from SAO was featured in a hentai doujin.

Holy cow! It definitely got my attention too.

I'm usually not interested in "fan service" titles, but Seven Seas tends to license the ones that actually have an interesting plot or some genuinely funny comedy. I'll put this one on my radar.

Earliest we can schedule it, since we have to issue schedules/solicitations a year in advance to our distributor. We'd certainly love to get books out sooner rather than later, but it is the best we can do.

While the wait is a bit long, we do hope you will be there to support this release when it comes out. Smile

A terrible mistake costs the lives of many of that world's inhabitants, and Yuto is to blame.

Well, this single sentence has me leaning towards getting into this series. Add to that, on MAL, they've got it tagged as seinen...feels like that it'd be treated seriously.

And, if it is, then I'd be even more inclined to pick it up.

By seriously, I mean that there isn't some sort of easy quick fix thrown in there or that it takes the MC one shot in order to be redeemed.

I thought the cover was a spoof of Asuna.

..another series with watermelon size breasts women..

i guess it's the trend now a day....

you guys saw them in real life before ? a bit freaky than a turn on..
the result of an experiment gone wrong or something.. Rolling Eyes

anyway.. pretty sure the story of this series is not really worth the time.. imo

Had a bit more of a look into this one...some of the tags on it from another site has me, well not worried, but slightly concerned with the content. One tag is spoiler[orgasm control]. Laughing...Shocked

Perhaps he decimated the population (inadvertently) with that power you mentioned. A power gained in the new strange world, that he had no control over. Though it sounds more like a choice he made to get his sister back.

But to Seven Seas, since you are watching, are you going to make an eBook of this. Some of us older fans, no longer have the room to hold vast collections anymore. Much as I love having a real book or manga in hand, it is no longer feasible.

It's time to cull and sell.
