    Name: Through the Looking-Glass, and What Iris Found There | 鏡の国のアイリス -SCP Foundation- 1
    Raw Link:
    http://www.hifumi.co.jp/books/lineup/9784891995034.html
    NU Link: I don't think it exists yet.
    Why It Should Get Picked Up: Because it's an SCP light novel. A fucking SCP light novel.
    Description: It's a story about SCP-105 and this Japanese dude who gets transported to her. I kind of want to read this because it's SCP. There's already quite a bit of canon for SCP-105 so I'm looking forwards to seeing what this can add.
    Also, due to the nature of the source material, it should be legal to translate it.
    Anyways, sypnosis:

    I hope the protagonist survives with this sanity intact by the end of this light novel. I doubt [Iris] can escape from the Foundation, since its the Foundation. He would have to start a containment breach if he wants to escape with this [Iris]. Is there romance in the genre or not? I'm curious on how will this light novel portray the SCP universe from this protagonist POV or is the light novel 3rd POV?

    It's basically a collaborative fiction that's written in a scientific format.

    SCP started off as a bunch of people writing these fake reports on /x/ board of 4chan.

    I actually have a copy of the book, though since I don't understand japanese, it's taking a VERY long time to translate sentence through sentence while making sense of the machine-translation + human errors from using the right characters. (;-.-) one day of hard work has only gotten me 3 sentences...

    "After school, it is nice to go to a certain library. I don't really like reading at other places. I also don't like going around the city, even if my cellphone has manga on it."

    Yep, main in the arse.
