It's 口伝 in the novel, without a Katakana-reading e: oops, should've checked the next page

I'm not sure if the Log Horizon books are actually classified as light novels though. They do have anime-style illustrations, but the books have a different form factor than other form factors and seem more difficult language-wise. Also, the Japanese Wikipedia calls them 小説, while other LNs say ライトノベル. On the other hand, they appear in the Oricon LN charts

Rodyle posted:There's also the "fan translations of LNs are cringeworthy" caveat. Fan translations of chinese translations of LNs even. But it's not just the translation aspect. I read the first two novels in japanese, and while I don't remember being bothered by excessive mentions of Akatsuki's size, there definitely were an annoying amount of reminders that the food didn't have any taste....like every single time food was mentioned in any way. And then once they discovered how cooking works he switched to mentioning that food used to not have any taste but now tastes like it's supposed to...

He had 100 mil lying around, specifically the money he didn't pay taxes on.

As far as I can tell from the news posts that money was just accumulating untouched in an account for 3 years. When he tried to transfer it, authorities became aware of it and started investigating.

Jintor posted:actually come to think of it's surprised there's no LH actual game yet, just the pen and paper afaik. But there are like a half dozen different novel series! I think! Just the one novel. Then there are 4 manga series (main story, Crescent Moon Alliance, West Wind Brigade and Nyanta), the TRPG stuff, a radio show with the scrub squad and some drama CDs that were included with the novels and BDs.
