  • We know it is possible to take classes outside of your course from the first pre-pub of this book. Sylvester says one possible future for Wilfried is to take some knight classes and become the knight commander.

    Part 3 Volume 2 Chapter 3 Pre-pub Discussion

  • If they are in a rush, I wonder if they would have time to do that. Making paper takes longer than a few days and they would have to try multiple different ways to make it, then wait for days for the results and see which changes made the best changes, improve based on that, and repeat this process multiple times. Going with Clarissa's idea and hunting for feybeast skin might be quicker.

    Though I do agree that improving the process for making the initial paper is something Rozemyne should do in the future.

  • The first three pre-pub parts were all such bangers that this one now seems comparatively a little calmer in comparison, but it is a good part nonetheless.

    It is nice seeing Rozemyne finally doing actual magic research herself. Before she just brewed what Raimund designed or retold what she was taught at the temple, so it is nice seeing her getting into researching brewing methods. She does not seem to like it though.

    The apprentices are going to take part in rituals moving forward, which is nice. It would be nice to get names for them. Roz is sus that Ralph is sus on her. Clarissa is "normal".

    It is nice that Rozemyne's siblings are so appreciative of her. Charlotte is running for Aub! But it might be only temporary before Melchior or their youngest sibling would take helm (?).

    Rozemyne's siblings having headaches over her socialising is great and them bonding over being overshadowed by her is a nice moment, even if she feels left out.

    Roz leaving Ehrenfest seems to be out of the bag. Leisegang elders are up to no good.

  • Dirk is way too adorable. His relationship with Delia is also very beautiful. It is also nice to see how much everyone wants to maintain what Rozemyne has built.

    Hartmut finally released his power levels. Like many have speculated, he has known for a long time.

    P4V5 had this bit:

    “Still, Hartmut... I’m impressed you noticed that,” I said.

    “Lord Ferdinand and Lord Justus have taught me much about you, Lady Rozemyne. I am glad their teachings have already proven useful.”

    Um, wait... Excuse me? What exactly are they teaching you?

    Hartmut went on to describe everything he had learned. “This will be necessary to contain your chaos within the Royal Academy, Lady Rozemyne,” he eventually concluded. I had no choice but to reflect on my own deeds and weep.

    Did you have to tell him EVERYTHING, and in that much detail?! Stupid, stupid Ferdinand! Stupid, stupid Justus!

    There is a fan translated chapter which I think would now be rather safe to read now. It will most likely be printed in Short Story Collection 3 but that has not released even in Japan yet, so we would have to wait for a long time to get it officially in English.

    Information on

    Sensei's newest blog post has some information on P5V12.

    There will be tons of added chapters from Rozemyne pov. So much that the book won't fit any SS chapters which is quite a lot, as the final volume will be half new content. Prologue will be Ferdinand pov and epilogue will be Lutz pov (which was also the last chapter of the WN).

    It's both nice and a shame. Nice because Rozemyne pov is always interesting and it is going to be nice to get more of that. A shame, because the SS chapters are usually very good and give a different perspective to events. Let's hope we will also get other perspectives in a later volume that focuses on short stories, so we'd get the best of both worlds.

  • When volumes are releasing for pre-pub, they release every other Friday. There are gaps between volumes but we never know how long gaps. They will most likely be alternating between P2 and P3 manga going forward.

    Favourite chapters until current pre-pub

    Now that we have reached a chapter that is a favourite to many, what are your favourite chapters until now? I can't name an absolute favourite but some of them are:

    • Facing the Future (Effa pov in 2.4)
    • Switching Places (Roz pov when Wilfried was the high bishop for a day)
    • Angelica's Manablade
    • Headache Report 2 (Sylvester pov epilogue in P4V6)
    • Doing a Little Scheming
    • Roz pov of dedication ceremony in contrast to Lueuradi pov (worked even better in the WN since Lueuradi pov was first)
    • Merchant Saint + Conditions for Adoption
    • Mother and Daughter
  • All of these three chapters were great, but the first two have to live in the shadow of the third one.

    Mother and Daughter is one of the best chapters in the whole series. I still cry every time I read it and I think I've read it at least 10 times.

    According to sensei's new blog post, Fanbook 8 SS will be...

    ...from Bertilde pov. Based on the poll sensei had on Twitter a while ago, the theme of the chapter will be noble apprenticeship.

    Covers events that happen in P4V2 LN.

    How do you hope that will expand the story from the WN?

    P5V12 will begin with Memories chapters of the WN, so there will only be eight WN chapters to cover before the end of the story. This will lead to about two thirds of P5V12 being original content written for the LN. What kind of chapters do you hope P5V12 will bring with itself?

    My personal biggest hope is that we will get an Elvira pov of the engagement ceremony. I want her to explain more about the words Ferdinand used to reply to Rozemyne's proposal as well as analyze Rozemyne's proposal.

    Another thing that I hope to see is getting info about at least some of the nobles that will work as Rozemyne's retainers in the future. She will need quite a lot of new retainers now that she is an Aub and she brought rather few from Ehrenfest. She only has three scholars and two attendants with her, and that will not be enough in the slightest.

    It would be fun to see some of the archduke conference during which Rozemyne is officially appointed as Aub Alexandria. "I am the precedent" and all th
