Taiwan, Hong Kong and South Korea are lucky.

There's already reports of lines reaching over 100 people outside Animate and Gamers in Akiba from various people on twitter. A collection of images can be found here.

Dang, I wanted United States to be on that list.

Tch. How about giving a little English love sometimes?

I totally understand the "why"s, but this whole 6 month per release thing for the English novels is killing me!

Arg, I'm happy to of pre-ordered 5 and soon 6...but...come on......3 a year maybe?

the last news about it was saying.

According to the announcement, the two volumes will ship simultaneously in Japan and "the world."

"Taiwan, Hong Kong, and South Korea" what a reducted definition of "The world" ^^

I too understand the 'whys' but 3 a year would make waiting for light novels so much more bearable. Especially when it's a really long (and basically complete) series like Spice and Wolf. Well, back to avoiding Haruhi spoilers like the plague, I really don't want to be spoiled before I read volumes 5 onwards.

Agreed.

So they delayed the release of the Japanese version until Chinese (both simple (China) and traditional (Taiwan)) and Korean translations were all complete?

Just uploaded some pictures I took yesterday.

Bookstore employees busy unpacking boxes and repacking books and extras into bagged sets. Note the latter volumes on the floor.

The entire storefront in preparation. Note the four girls on the second floor; anime is being projected on a screen at lower left.
