posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
Indonesian publisher Shining Rose Media posted a preview on Wednesday for its upcoming Indonesian release of the first volume of Takumi Hiiragi-Boshi's Absolute Duo light novel series. The preview contains the novel's prologue and first chapter.
Shining Rose Media announced that it will begin publishing the Absolute Duo novel series under its Lite Novel label in June, though it has not yet announced a release date for the novel.
The novel's story takes place at Kōryō Academy, a school for students who can produce a Blaze — a weapon that is the manifestation of a human's soul. Tooru Kokonoe happens to be qualified for the school, but for some reason his Blaze is not a weapon, but a shield. Moreover, he enrolled in a school that teaches combat skills, and thanks to the school's Duo partner system, he ends up living with a beautiful silver-haired girl.
Hiiragi-Boshi launched the light novel series with art by Yū Asaba in 2012, and Kadokawa published the ninth volume in Japan on July 24. Shinichirō Nariie launched a manga adaptation in Media Factory's Monthly Comic Alive magazine in April 2013. Tōru Oikawa launched another manga spinoff of the novels titled Absolute Duo Tea Party in Monthly Comic Alive last October. The 12-episode TV anime adaptation of the novel series premiered in January.
