There are digital releases on Amazon, including audio books.
>>
Is this even good ?
>>
>>14328818
Yes.
>>
>>14328818
Yes. You faggots should buy it if you can to show there's some damned interest for the series.
>>
>>14328667
Why can't you buy it off Amazon or Audible?

See how it says Legend of the galactic Heroes on it?

Yeah it's good.

No. It's really old-fashioned, like 70s/80s sci-fi. And it's a fucking sausagefest. All the women are basically just there to look good.

I cannot believe the ebook isn't up on torrents.

If you're going to do that at least have something resembling that trash review.

said, the book's on Kindle. I can understand if they can't let you buy physical copies of stuff (I was just in another thread where a guy mentioned some countries are considered to have "insecure mail" or something so they make you pay extra for shipping or don't ship things there at all) but digital should be fine.

I have to confess my sins, /m/, I went to the bookstore to buy the LotGH book and got pic related instead.

all of the copies of the book at all the bookstores I've been to were all cut up and had a bunch of scratches on the side; did anyone who order it online get one like that?
>>
>>14331399
That was because of the SJWs anon. Some guy on Reddit posted about doing it because the book was misogynist.

ANY news about the US release of the anime?

>>14331477
Sentai is dubbing it.

https://www.youtube.com/user/SentaiFilmworksAnime/videos

They're really the worst.
>>
>>14328667
Not like nuanced western sci-fi, Tanaka's decades old prose, awkward translation, no women, etc.
>>
>>14331484
Wait seriously? I'm a pretty big dubfag but fuck man LOGH is one of those shows where no dubbing studio could do proper justice to it
>>
>>14331575
It's because Sentai is super, super cheap. That's why they get so many anime licenses; they do it cheaper than anyone else and Japan still gets its money.
>>
Did the 1st volume sell well? Do they plan to buy more volumes than the ones they announced?
>>
>>14331484
Source?
All I've heard is that Sentai licensed it. No word on if it is going to be dubbed

Technically no, it's kinda shit, but it's like Star Wars in that its sort of a touchstone so you might as well.

The writing is poor, save for the final battle which I found to be written in a very engaging manner re: most large-fleet engagements in fiction
>>
>>14331408
the fuck? is this real?
>>
>>14331585
They said they licensed the first three, and if they do well enough they'll put out more.

So, normally I would help OP find a copy, but I urge you to please, please buy it. In whatever way you can.
>>
>>14331408

The fact that anyone even has to ask this speaks volumes about the intelligence of both the LoGH fanbase and screeching SJW-haters

OP, disregard that, it's a fucking lie.

I wanted to write that VIZ are actually not to blame for this since the new Japanese edition has the same drawings on the cover, but they actually made things worse.

The Japanese edition lets you take off the dust cover and end up with pic related, while the English paperback does not offer this option.
>>
>>14337319
>taking off dust covers
>ever
>>
>>14337319
It's a common thing in Japanese books to have a dull cover underneath the fancier dust cover with bottom information sleeves.
>>
>>14337841
>Japanese books
>not literally every book
>>
>>14333866
>lie
haha whatever you say, bruh

but my opinion is still that it was a poorly-written ponderous scifi entry that isn't worth the accolades. Worth your time? Sure. It's entertainment, and if you've seen the show it's charming to see what did and didn't come across in the series. But really good? Nah.
>>
>>14333614
Don't be retarded, while lying on the internet is common, so are SJW rabid actions. If you can't even understand why 4+ people were curious about it then you are even more delusional than Andrew Fork. That or you are an SJW.
>>
>>14337319
I bought the ebook so it doesn't matter.

Wow, it's so different from the anime. It basically covers Season 1 up to episode 13, but there's so little character interaction and it's mostly just a description of what happens while exploring politics and philosophy through Yang while Reinhard keeps talking about his ambitions.
>>
>>14328667
Buy it you faggot.
>>
>>14339714
>while lying on the internet is common, so are SJW rabid actions.

Rabid as SJWs are, lying on the internet is still more common. Unless someone links to an actual Reddit thread I'm calling bullshit, and even then the SJW would have to post pictures and timestamps of ripped books for me to buy the story.
>>
>>14328818
LoGH has been unavailable in English for decades, but given the poor quality of this new translation, it's hard to say whether that was truly a bad thing. Huddleston's prose is so slavishly devoted to Tanaka's original Japanese text that the path towards the meat of the book quickly becomes a slog. It's easy to lose interest long before the action picks up (no thanks to the unnecessary, lengthy prologue, absent in the anime), and it doesn't help that Tanaka's nearly 35-year-old plot has aged rather poorly; with its overwhelmingly male-dominated story and shallow female characters. It's really hard to find a place for this series amongst the west's more nuanced SF.
>>
>>14339714
You can tell the story is made up because SJWs aren't going to care about something as niche as logh.

>>14328818
No

Only partially related but when is the best time to rewatch the show? I finsihed it for the first time a year ago, and while I want to go on that ride again, I think its still too soon for a rewatch
>>
>>14342061

Same boat, i kinda wanna wait long enough until i forget some of the twists so i can re-experience them again.
