Its animation and art style gives me a similar sense of nostalgia and also has a great story with compelling characters. Or, more obscurely, check out the fantasy series, Saiunkoku Monogatari. Her novels are similarly well-realized fantasy stories with anime adaptations. I recommend everything written by Nahoko Uehashi. If you’re of intermediate or higher Japanese level, you can always read ahead in the Japanese web novels. It has been a year since our hero was reborn into a new world in the body of Myne, a sickly little girl from a poor family.
#Ascendance of a bookworm light novel series
If you’re like me though and like to binge series as quickly as possible, you might find yourself waiting aimlessly for more when you finish the anime and current English light novels. Miya Kazuki is an amazing writer and the official translations are quite good. Ascendance of a Bookworm: Part 1 Volume 1 (Ascendance of a Bookworm (light novel), 1) Paperback Septemby Miya Kazuki (Author), You Shiina (Illustrator), Quof (Translator) 1,750 ratings Book 1 of 25: Ascendance of a Bookworm See all formats and editions Kindle 7. The anime is, of course, quite good, but I also highly recommend the light novel series even if you’ve seen the anime three times over. And due to Miya Kazuki writing the characters the way she does, there’s no boring or immersion-breaking exposition.Īscendance of a Bookworm is one of the most thoroughly realized stories I have had the pleasure of reading and watching.
It allows character interactions to flow a lot more freely and the simplistic writing allows for a lot more detail to be added. Which sounds terrible, but actually works a lot better in practice. That being said, Miya Kazuki’s writing often does that weird thing that happens in anime where something happens on screen and then the characters say out loud what just happened, except in written form. Not to mention that this simpler writing style lends itself to some really great comedy. Some may not like how her style leans more toward "tell don't show" but it is still an incredibly well-written story with very compelling characters. I don't blame her for that though, since her world and characters are so incredibly detailed that if she used flowery prose, her series would probably be the biggest and longest light novel series ever made. The story is translated to English and covers Comedy, Fantasy, Slice of Life genres. Most light novels use fairly simple language, but even knowing that I think Miya Kazuki's writing style is even on the simple side of that. Ascendance of a Bookworm is a popular light novel written by Miya Kazuki.
