    Hello,

    I am from Asada Translations. Recently, we have hired more people to our site. We are looking to pickup more novels while also continue translating the current one. I would really appreciate if you can help me with choosing the novel. Unfortunately, there are some restrictions so please do read them.

    I would really appreciate if you can send me the raw links as well. You can either pm or send the link to my email [email protected]

    What we would like to have
    • Novel related to Virtual Gaming or gamelike elements.
    • Preferably male character
    • Low and High Fantasy will be preferred
    • Mystery is acceptable too
    • Kingdom building
    • Japanese novels will be preferred over Korean and Chinese.
    • Preferably Web Novel( Good Light Novels are accepted too)
    • Novel which has already some chapters translated will be preferred over starting a new translations.
    • Raws not behind paywall will be preferred.
    • Unique novels whose alternatives cant be found easily

    What we dont like
    • BL or GL genre tag
    • A novel published by Qidian or Munipia
    • A novel which is already official licensed for English Translations.
    • Dropped novels/Deleted novels on the raw sites
    • Cultivation genre
    • Novel with NU rating below 4
    • 18+ content
    Checkout Reader, NPC Town Building Game and Princes Battle to Concede the Throne to get reference of our tastes :D

    We have picked up:

    For Now here are the novels which we are considering based on your suggestions.

    By gaming, does it refer exclusively to virtual gaming or gaming elements like levels?

    I just started reading this manga called Tearmoon Empire Story. It's really good! But only 5 chapters are out!!
    The novel is untranslated so maybe you guys can pick it up: https://ncode.syosetu.com/n8920ex/
    Unfortunately it's a female protagonist novel. But if you're still willing do consider it.

    Edit: Oh, sorry, I just found out the LN version of the novel is being officially translated by J-Novel Club.

    Well we might consider it but unfortunately no guarantees as it is a female mc novel and seems to lack gaming elements :D

    You could use the series finder of NU for this and sort for readers, only thing you cannot exclude are paywalls, quidan or Mutopia could be excluded through excluding korean and chinese. As for it beeing dropped you could just put in a datum for which the last chapter has been released. Since none of the novels I read match your requirements, or are only quasi dropped, where a chapter is released once in months.

    Vulcanic Age would be interesting since the manhwa is good and popular, but 2 picked it up and dropped it shortly after, so I don´t know If there are some problems regarding paywall or sth. like that.
