For once, this is incorrect. LN, eroge, dolls, figurines and assorted hobbies fall under /jp/'s jurisdiction.

No, light novels go in /a/. You might be correct in saying it may not make the most sense, but that's how it is. In any case, I don't think anyone really cares about IS here.

my dick falls under /jp/'s jurisdiction.

According to most /jp/ers, nothing falls under /jp/ except daily doses, NEET and Touhou.

Don't try to reason with them, they are without exception faggots. I wished moot finally closed this shithole.

Problems between author and publisher, everything canceled, no more reprints.

You could just stay out of /jp/. We won't miss you, for obvious reasons.

I scan through page 1 once in a while to see if the situation has changed.

Nope, still a horrible place.

[ZUN !barYV1VtIA No.]

Wasn't this series really popular in otaku culture?

Good job canceling something that prints money.

Moot agreed, don't bother him about it.

[Anonymous No.]

There was a 200+ post thread about this on /a/ earlier today.

[Anonymous No.]

How are they going to continue the series without source material?

[Anonymous No.]

I wanted to watch the IS anime for Cecilia and Char but dense protagonists already irritate me enough in eroge, but at least in eroge I can pick the heroines I like.

[Anonymous No.]

The whole thing has been going for a while.
It's still odd, since it really is printing money. It's probably the most popular "new" otaku franchise of last year.

Anyway, if the story is true, both publisher and author are retarded.

I wish there was more mecha action in it. actually I would have been happy if the protagonist was genius level instead of a useless faggot.

[Anonymous No.]

what if we make armored suits
but they dont protect your body at all
instead they'll have a magical shield and even the person who made the suits doesnt know how they work

>People in Japan are comparing the drama surrounding Infinite Stratos right now to the kind of publisher/creator drama that happened to Rozen Maiden in the past.
