Finally
So glad they're releasing this in English. I prefer print to Kindle so ignore the other guy.
Awesome
Finnaly released in english awesome!! Everyone who loves the series need to buy because it will increase the odds of a new season
Finally. After all these years we finally have it.
I've already read this title as a fan translation hoping that one day this would come to us English readers and that time has come, my friends. A great story with great arcs, characters, worldbuilding and details to boot. There is almost nothing you could ask more of when it comes to this series and it sure delivers. If you aren't already a fan of the written story or haven't seen the anime, then I beg you to try it out for yourself and see what you've been missing. The only gripe I have with this product is that the translation can't come out fast enough for those who have already been following with the fan translations as there are 25 total in this series and a continuation of 5+ in the next so it will most likely be a while until we are somewhat caught up with our Japanese companions. 10/10 would read again. :)
Welcome to America Oppai Dragon
As the reader you are in the head of Issei more than ever, compared to the anime, at least that's how i felt. Issei's more reflective and self deprecating in the light novel. Cant wait for vol.2 Jan 21.
Well written and a story of substance, the fan service compliments the plot
This was a blind buy for me, I’ve never watched the anime or had any idea what this was about other than the copious amounts of boobage and fan service I’d seen from clips of the anime. I figured it would be 90% fan service and 10% story/plot, but I was completely wrong. With the place in history this series has, being somewhat of a legendary harem with a cult following; I decided I had to see what all the hype was about. Honestly this volume surprised me, there was fan service, but it actually complimented the story and only made it funnier and more interesting. There’s actually a lot of world building and lore in this volume, and I plan to continue reading to see where this ends up. The only shame is there’s only 2 volumes released at the time of this review. I read this volume quickly too, I was able to finish it in one day and I’m not much of a heavy reader. It’s a page turner, and I had no problems with losing interest or having to skim pages. It also had really good pacing. I’ve researched this series more now that I’ve finished the first volume of it, but supposedly it will become more lewd and have more fan service as the series progresses, so I’m interested in what that’ll entail. All in all, I’d recommend this to anyone who is okay with some fan service, but also wants a well thought out world, with lots of world building and lore. I was happy with the story & plot taking priority over the fan service, which was my biggest concern before reading since there’s 25 in total, but that wasn’t the case. Enjoy
Volume 1 down. 24 more to go!
A true underdog store where the guy gets the girl(s). Loved this since I saw the anime years ago and am quite happy the finally released it over here. I just hope we get all 25 volumes plus the side storys as well. Wish it was on kindle but having the physical copy I think is better.
It's finally here
I tell you when I heard this was finally getting released in english I almost jump for joy in the middle of a supermarket. Seriously though I'm just glad it got published in English. I've been wanting to read this series ever since I saw all four seasons of the anime, so thanks Yen Press, looking forward to reading Date A Live when it releases next year. Honestly though if I had one complaint it's that this book isn't available on kindle.
Most anticipated book
Glad they Finally released this book been waiting for the English for years. Can't wait for the next one to release.
It’s finally here.
Been waiting for the English translation for a while now. Can’t wait for the whole series to be translated.
Equally As Good As The Anime
Had to get the LN's after binging the anime. The anime is one of my favorites, and the LN was equally as amazing! Don't hesitate to buy this if you're a fan of the series or just like the ecchi genre in general. You won't be disappointed! l'm about to the start Vol. 2, the only downside is having to wait for the next English Vol. to be released... 5 stars!
