News The author of Rain has passed away

Never read that series, but still, my deepest condolences.

 

rip

 

I was planning to read this too.
But I guess I won't now.

 

Cough -> https://www.novelupdates.com/series/beauty-and-the-bodyguard/ (7000+ chapters and still increasing)
1) Some CN readers claim that Author "Fishman 2nd Generation" stopped writing as early as Chapter 3000+.
2) Other CN readers claim that Author stopped in June 2016 when he started writing his 5th book (Beauty and the Bodyguard was the 4th book).
3) But most readers agree it started when the entire chapter is spammed with Beijing-Slang aka Beijing-Ghetto-Speak, saturated with dialogue and monologues filled with expletives, enough to reach the bare minimum daily chapter word limit.

 

This is how I think about all the unfinished works, after watching Re:creators

 

It always sucks to not be able to see the ending of a series. That said, there are some good unfinished ones that were due to authors death that are worth reading, even if you know it'll never be finished.

 

I really like Rain. Guess i'll stop reading now
Sigh
Zero no tsukaima (so sad just 1 more, i want the real author to end it)
Kaze no stigma ( i hope for an ending, devastated when the author, himself ended)
Trinity blood (i hope for romance ending)
MM! ( dammit, i really like the jokes)

 

Ya it was. But that was because the author had prepared and the story was planned to end in just one more book. Not sure about Rain though

 

Yes, I'd still read there works. If I was invested in a story and an author passes, I'd still read.

 

Sigh, Rip.
I never liked Rain but it is just sad to see a whole world die in a moment.

 

Eh, I think I've become jaded by translators dropping a novel on random chapters. I dont do mtl, so I'm used to sudden endings.

 

RIP

kaze no stigma was superb

didnt know he died

 

how fun.

 

I recommend watching or Reading the Memorandum of Okitegami Kyoko

Japanese use interns too.
How do you think manga or anime is made?
Cheap intern labor.

 

Getting someone else to come up with the source material and not crediting them is the like the lowest-of-all-lows in terms, especially when it's a text novel. It might work for Asian societies but definitely not American and Western European countries.

Real Life Story made into a movie:

Same here. I like the anime a lot too. Never thought the author had passed away.

I'm also so sad to hear Rain's author died. Rain manga is one of my favorite read. Can't believe I can no longer see the ending to these awesome dark theme stories anymore...

 

Taking advantage of people that way is called apprenticeship in Asia and third world countries in Africa.
That is why paid internship is very important. In apprenticeships, the students actually pay for doing work instead of getting paid.
Imagine if Margaret paid Walter to sell her paintings

 

according to Sephi's post 3 weeks ago,

 

I think Zheya was asking if the manga has caught up to the end of volume 15 of the LN (the last volume published), not how far the translation is in comparison to the manga. I can't answer that since I'm not caught up with either.

But if you want to estimate via math, the end of volume 4 of the LN is roughly equivalent to the end of volume 7 of the manga. There are 15 total volumes of the LN and 17 or 18 volumes of the manga.
