I don't know if the novel is dropped or on some unannounced hiatus/pause. Although the release frequency (last time I checked) states 3.9 days, I know the translator recently transitioned into a couple releases per Monday for Kenkyo Kenjitsu, so I figured it would come 4 days ago. But it's 4 days overdue, and there wasn't a single update since then other than a j novels link to a different novel. Correct me if I'm wrong on the latest release schedule, but it is difficult when I couldn't find any recent announcements or accurate change (listed on NU) regarding the frequency.
Este updates whenever he wants to. He hasn't dropped it and there is no set schedule either. I think checking the FAQ on oniichanyamete (spelling ) might answer some of your questions.
AH you just booked the next few hours of my life for me, I'll get like 0 sleep but who needs that anyway. Thank you so much for this wonderful gift
