Jibril Posted December 17, 2014 Posted December 17, 2014 Oh look, 17k+ views on an abandoned thread. Anyway some info, as No Game No Life Light novel has been officially licensed, all fan translations are ceased and taken down. That being said, the total light novel sales for No Game No Life is astounding after the anime ended. Also regarding the concerns on retconning the ending of season 1 to the intro of season 2 without messing up the adaptation: *summoning light show*Steph: Wh-what is this?Jibril: What power!OD!Miko: Divine core manifestation. Mind meld established. Power setting: minimal. Why have you summoned me, you with finite lifespans?Sora: Exceed Rank #1, Old Deus...Jibril: Exceed Rank #1?Izuna: Old...?Steph: ...Deus!? *faints*Sora: Okay...[ ]: Let's begin the game!OD!Miko: ......[ ]: ...Steph: *unconscious*Everyone else: ...OD!Miko: ...Declined. Busy now. Come back later.*light show vanishes*Everyone: O_o'*OP begins* Onto Mahouka, the anime covers up to the first 6 volumes out of a total 14. Needless to say the contents needed are there and with the fact that Mahouka currently being the number 1 light novel in terms of sales this year, beating even Sword Art Online (I did not expect this), season 2 chances seems so huge~ Quote
RinXD Posted December 17, 2014 Posted December 17, 2014 honestly All things come down to how popular it was in japan if it wasnt popular in japan then chance are there will not be a season two as japan still refuses to see the west as a viable market Quote

Dark Ariel7 Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 Your name and avatar only make this info all the better. I am still sad about the last volume out 6 not being translated. But it seems like there is a small underground tl of it. I will post if I can. Quote
Jibril Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 Or rather I believe it is not allowed due to the rules so if you care for it just send me a pm. I also have the other volumes Quote
Dark Ariel7 Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 I have Volume 6 fully tled. I can pm you a copy. I have not read it myself. I am assembling it from multiple chapter translations put up in another forum. So I cannot vouch for its quality yet. The formatting in the text is annoying and I have not put in the images. I can get it to you by tomorrow if you are interested Quote

Kuroneko-san Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 In my opinion, NGNL has better anime adaptation. Mahouka has too many professional nouns and explanation. I'm not saying that Mahouka is a bad light novel but not quite suitable for anime. I will choose over NGNL for season 2 instead of Mahouka. Quote
Tohka Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 I love both the animes and LN are amazing. So, I hope both have a season 2............. Quote

Tohka Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 Well considering both were made by the same studio and Mahouka is more successful than No Game No Life... Same here~ Quote
Jibril Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 Well Mahouka has more of technical stuff so it attracted me alot but No game no life and mahouka have no comparision i guess. Both have aspiring plots and superb animation. Right? Quote
Tohka Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 Yep. Well aside that there's a few censor black bars in Mahouka... both had enjoyable animation, soundtrack, arts and characters. Quote
Mikimir Posted December 18, 2014 Author Posted December 18, 2014 I read the volume 4 of the LN but without the animation it only made me confused... Were they playing Touhou with the flugels or what? Quote

Mikimir Posted December 18, 2014 Author Posted December 18, 2014 Of course not.Didn't you remember? Sora himself said that it's easier than a Touhou game~ Quote
Jibril Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 I...don't. The whole game was confusing to me. All I know is that blank won. Quote
Mikimir Posted December 18, 2014 Author Posted December 18, 2014 Well basically... They were playing a game similar to the one in episode 6. Except that they need to take the words from the flugels. Quote
RinXD Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 I honestly dont see either of these getting a second season to be honest while the irregualr at magic high school was good it didnt leave much to be desired after the last episode and If no game no life was gonna get a second season it would of already been announced for spring by now Quote

Take SAO for example, the second season wasn't announced for 1 full year after the final episode of the first season. Quote
RinXD Posted December 20, 2014 Posted December 20, 2014 Jibril the point is NO game no life had enough content for a season 2 right away they wouldnt wait on something that hot if they were gonna make a season 2 Quote
Jibril Posted December 20, 2014 Posted December 20, 2014 Jibril the point is NO game no life had enough content for a season 2 right away they wouldnt wait on something that hot if they were gonna make a season 2 Same as SAO. Honestly Madhouse didn't expect No Game No Life to be that successful either, and when it did, they already had other projects. Also postponing 1 year before announcement gives a time gap for DVD sales to increase. Quote
RinXD Posted December 20, 2014 Posted December 20, 2014 They still would of announced intent to do a season two if they were going too Quote
Jibril Posted December 20, 2014 Posted December 20, 2014 They still would of announced intent to do a season two if they were going too 2 years of hype wouldn't be good. It can reduce the actual hype when it aired. Best kept the announcement around either summer 2015 or 6 months before the second season aired. Quote
