    This thread is dedicated to novel that are abandoned by our fellow translators, in hope that new ray of translator would be as kind as to pick them up. Note that this is for novel that has been abandoned for more than 1/2 year or project that has been officially dropped by its scanlation series. Not for series with slow update rate or series dropped because it being licensed.

    Personally, I really want to read the continuation of bu bu jing xin (reincarnated to ancient chinese as one of the prince consort's sister, but is not part of harem). It has been abandoned for several years, and it doesn't look like anyone is going to pick it up. A drama adaptation exist, but I don't want to watch the drama except there's really no hope left that someone will pick it up

    Mmm, this is always a tragedy, only surpassed (as far as novel tls go) by when the original author/publisher drops the work.

    No it's not. The latest post explicitly states that the translator is taking an indefinite break due to real life circumstances.

    Oh right... wouldnt it be a reaaaaallly helpful tool to have a page specially for abandoned novels? i mean put Abandoned Novels below the reading list in the main page... or at least add the tag to the series so that others can know that nobody is translating it to see if you either pick it up to read or decide to translate it!

    This is Yukkuri Oniisan speaking....
    Well... I'm interested in translating Realist Kingdom Reform Chronicle....
    But the RAW is just too big, 5000-9000 words, average ~7000 words (all is MS Count)....
    But let's see what I can do.... 1 chapter per 2 weeks, is not that much shabby I think....
    I'll ask larvyde-san first....

    This would be interesting. Maybe we can even set up a communist page for different ppl to contribute to their translationstranslations.

    Thank you very much, Yukkuri Oniisan. Glad to see someone picked it up. It's very rare to find reincarnation novel that focuses on country management.

    About Realist Kingdom Reform
    I'll just contacted larvyde-san.
    It seems that he still want to translate this novel. So we'll do collab for this webnovel

    Maybe "A stunning eunuch" is still being translated since the translator did say that there will be a posting hiatus while translating. I can't wait to read this xD looks fun
    (Really, really wish I can read this in Chinese but my traditional is a bit rusty so I have to keep looking characters up T.T)

    So did anyone confirm if the translator abandoned the novel or not? I went to the site and click links and found nothing. Sorry bout bumping old links but i didn't think it would be good to start another thread when there was already one talking bout it. All i found after searching around was the raws i think...google/bing translation makes it difficult to even make out what's goin on.
