coolness!

The n°6 novels are actually translated in French! Well not entirely, but the first 5 volumes at least :) And they have it at my local library, woot *puts it on reservation*

(should pay more attention to what Japanese YA novels are translated to French. Maybe they have the Seirei no Moribito series too!)

Et les romans n'ont pas le problème de fin dont tu avais parlé par rapport à l'anime ?

[salinea]

Ben je les ai pas encore lu, mais probablement moins. Ceci dit je ne sais même pas si c'est une série finie...

[salinea]

tient sinon je viens de finir de voir les OAV d'Arslan, et forcément : ya pas de fin. Et la série de romans dont s'est adapté n'est pas encore fini.

Les Japonais sont vraiment les chefs des séries de roman sff qui ne finissent jamais.

Ah, I'm envious! I think there are English fan-translations on-line, but that's not nearly the same as being able to hold the actual thing in your hand. *__*

[salinea]

I know! I've never been able to make myself read fantranslation yet :/

I feel so out of touch with Japanese pop culture these days, I had to actually look up the novels you mentioned. This can't be a good thing. :(

My own interest in anime/manga is on the wane right now.

[aeka]

Why is that? In my case it's because all the series I enjoyed ended and there hasn't been anything new that has captured my interest. :/

[salinea]

Mostly it's the same reason, I've had less and less interest in new shows each season for a while now. But I think it's also simply the flux of my interest. I mean, it was my main fandom for a couple of years, and then that shifted to comics when I got a bit tired of it.

I found them when the anime was still running. It's pretty fortunate, that you can find them at your library, because it is very difficult to find them in print (especially from outside of France).

Oh, if i can manage to find them in used bookstore do you want me to pick them up for you? There are some adventages to living in Paris :)
