    Why It Should Get Picked Up:
    This is one of my favourite novels on Syosetu, it got published on January and the publisher released the nº2 a few months ago.

    The action scenes are really well developed, it has some nice characters (specially the dragon girl), some nice slow romance, some fun comedy and the MC became a fucking sentai hero (Silver Kamen raider clone), what else?!!!

    There is some haren maybe, but at this moment (118 chapters), the MC choosed just one girl.

    It was picked some time ago, unfortunatelly it was abandoned by the translator, probably it wasn't very popular because it was unedited and looked like a machine translator.

    Description:
    [​IMG]

    Yuya Kashiwagi defeated the demond lord army and his evil spirits with his companions and he decided to come back to the Earth because he doesn't want to me a problem for the human kingdoms.

    Two years passed on the other world but just a few seconds on the Earth. Unexpectly he is still strong and.... Why I still can use magic? The former hero remains his power and he even can summon his contrated beasts from the other world!!!

    What would be his choose? One ordinary university life or maybe the path of the hero?

    --------------------------------------------------------

    The Novel is a Seinen, but it also have some really nice shonen action with many fights. The MC is overpowered, specially on Earth, but it doesn't mean that he is undefeatable, he is not even the strongest one on the main characters group.

    Comparative with other novels? Ok, let's go.
    My entire class was summoned It has a few point in common (everiday hero, modern days). Mut in my opinion Kikanshita is much, much better. The MC isn't that plain and the novel is better in all senses and it's very well known, there are not bad MCs with motorcycles.

    It has also a few points in common with Going back and forth , like the world traveling and carrying people from the other world to the Earth. But as I said it's one million times better.

    More returned heroes Isekai kaeri no ossan wa, Shiitagerareta Kyuuseishu

    This novel contains a dragon riding a Suzuki Katana, yes, that Suzuki Katana

    That reason is strong enough for being translated by at least 8 simultaneous translation groups :D

    I have posted the prologue of this title but will not be translating any further chapters due to the wishes of the author and their publisher. Please follow this link to the announcement post.
    I apologise for the inconvenience.

    Well you tried, no harm no foul.

    Do you know by chance if they would have an official English translation?

    The author has said nothing about getting an official translation, but just that there is a possibility that it may one day get published in English.

    Uhh rule 1 of fan translations: Don't tell the author or publisher.

    As long as there's no cease or desist order, you can translate it however you want.

    Then again, you can just translate it and turn it to an pdf like what Mahouka is doing
