Rakudai Kishi no Eiyuutan
In a time and place where one's soul can be morphed into a weapon,
there are modern-day magicians called mage-knights. Although Ikki
Kurogane is a student at an institution that trains mage-knights, he has
no particular talent in magic and is labeled the "Failed Knight" or
"Worst One." Getting way less than average marks in the scorings, he was
forced to repeat a year. But with the arrival of a new head of the
institution, a new rule was created: knights whose abilities are
compatible, as decided by the board, must share rooms and attend
practice and training together throughout their school years to bring up
their abilities to the max. It was a rule to implement the absolute
verdict of ability.
Ikki's roommate, Stella Vermillion, turns out to be a princess of
a foreign country. Stella is an A-Rank knight, the type of genius in
magic who only appears once a decade. When Ikki walked in on her while
she was changing her clothes, it caused a huge misunderstanding, which
eventually ended up in a duel between the two of them. The punishment
for the loser is eternal submission to the winner.
Forced to live in the same room and practice magic together
throughout all their school years, how will Stella and Ikki's
relationship evolve?

Hi thanks for translating. Do u know where I can get the all ready translated ones...
ReplyDeleteThey'll be put here when they're available, probably. You see the chapter names and the "Continue reading" link, right? Take a guess.
DeleteSo far the previous volumes are at Baka-Tsuki
DeleteAre you planning on translating volume 8 or taking a break after this? Thanks again for the translation, it was great!

DeleteContinue reading is bugged? it does nothing for me
ReplyDeleteIt's just that there's nothing to read yet. You should be able to tell by the fact that the chapter titles haven't been made into links yet.
DeleteThanks for picking this Novel, i really like it xD
ReplyDeleteThanks for picking this novel.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot for picking Rakudai! It's the best LN i've read so far and i'm so excited for the new volumes!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for picking this up. This series pales in comparison to MKnR but still the development is quite fresh since there is an official couple
ReplyDeleteI'm soooooo excited :D
ReplyDeleteHonestly, can't wait for more. Thank You SOOOOOO MUCH
ReplyDeleteWonder when it will release? Because I think I may have gave up on anyone translating it beyond vol 6. :(
ReplyDeleteI don't want to sound too capricious , but what happened to volume 0? It was released between 6 and 7 iirc.
ReplyDeleteBasically it's a collection of short stories. KLSymph will translate it whenever he has time. In any case, we aren't doing it.
Deleteyou just want to read the Naked Apron scene ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
DeleteThanks for translating this series.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for this !
ReplyDeletethank you for picking this up :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for translating this! Am so looking forward to reading more!
ReplyDeleteI just want to thank you for the translating!! There is anything we can do to help you!!
ReplyDeleteSo you want to help? Then it would help if people don't whine about when the next chapter will come, etc. And perhaps buying us a pizza since we are hungry most of the time, of course, no pineapple pizza.
DeleteIf I could send you a pizza through latín america it would be great.
DeleteThank you soo much for translating Rakudai Kishi! Love you man<3(no home)xD
ReplyDelete.......not all heroes wear capes, unless you do.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for doing this series <3
why you want pizza so much.?
ReplyDeleteaaa... thank you for translating this LN ^^ thank you for your hardwork.
if you live near my home, i'll definitely send you something to eat.
Will the 8th volume also be translated here. Or in another WordPress site or webpage
ReplyDeleteThanks for the translator. You are the best.
ReplyDeleteAre you planning on translating volume 8? Thanks for the translation!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the translations. Just to ask, where do you guys get your raws from? I've been wanting to try translating my own but I can't get ahold of any of the novels.
ReplyDeleteI usually buy digital copies from Bookwalker. There are also places such as Kobo, amazon and such. (Though the last one has crappy quality pictures). Although do note that they are DRM'd (digital protected) so you can only read it. If you want to take illustration or text, you need to first remove the drm. Kobo is probably the easiest to do in that regard. You just need to google.
DeleteOk, thanks a bunch.
DeleteI hope this isn't a rude question to ask but on bakatsuki there are some chapters that also appear here, and they are different (i checked), my question is wich version should i read? normally i would just read the one that was translated last, but i don't know the dates
ReplyDeleteThe ones on Baka-Tsuki are taken from here and further edited/reworded to match the formatting of the project guidelines there. There shouldn't be too much differences aside from some rewordings, so you can read whichever style you like better.
DeleteThanks for the answer!
DeleteThanks for the translations
ReplyDeleteI've been waiting for a long time a traduction for the novel, thank you very much, really. Note: I'm studying Japanese so in the near future I'll try and help too!
ReplyDeleteI wish the team good luck with the translation, may the pizzas be with you!
The name I go by is Hooligan101 btw, I'll get an account later on
DeleteTHank you for the translations. Will you put it in baka-tsuki? Because it´s easier for me to download the text from there and put it in my kindle.
ReplyDeleteI just want to say, thank you ! I know translate is not easy but you do it. This give me the possibility to read this book wothout waiting they arive in shop. So thank you !
ReplyDeletewhen will the translations for chapter 13 of volume 8 will be released
ReplyDeleteIs this is abandoned
ReplyDeletePlease put the next translation can't wait for it
ReplyDeleteIs it on hold?
ReplyDeletePlease translate volume 9 as well so we can finish the tournament arc and see the finals.

Are you planning to start volume 9.
ReplyDeleteThere is already volume 9 translated long before they took over, but missing a few beginning chapters. I only wonder if they will pick the untranslated parts.

ReplyDeleteI saw the translated vol 9 in jasonwanderblog i think. Maybe you could skip vol9 and start with vol10. Just a suggestion
ReplyDeleteThe jasonwanderblog translation is not complete i.e it's missing parts of volume 9.
DeletePlease continue this fantastic novel if possible, I rly like this! :D
ReplyDeleteWaiting for vol 9 thanks for your hard work

ReplyDeleteSir are you going to translate the other volumes too? If so then when should we expect them to roll out? Thank you sir.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the translation. I know this word is a selfish one but please do not stop to continue translate this LN. Please i hope you will always continue to translate it please...Thank You so much Gambaruyo !
ReplyDeleteHello ! I Hope you will continue to translate volume 9 please. Gambaruyo !
ReplyDeleteI would like to thank you for translation for this novel :) and hope 9th will be here soon! take your time and gl :D
ReplyDeleteThank you for translation.I would like to ask you if you could join "Hagure Yuusha no Aesthetica" project of baka tsuki because all the translators are now inactive and I don't know Japanese or else I would've done it myself so please can you translate it for us who have been waiting for it��������.
ReplyDeleteIf volume 9 is released this year i'll send you the biggest pizza you will ever have.
ReplyDeleteThank you for all of the hard work and time put into translating this Light Novel. So far, I can say that this is my favorite. Can't wait for the FINAL BATTLE!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for this battle,I really don't think ikki will win. I'm thinking best case scenario it's a draw
ReplyDeleteNah, there's no way it would end in a draw. Honestly Ikki probably wins because plot armor, but Stella should seemingly steamroll him.
Deletethe fight is already translated and the afterward sex scene as well
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
Deletewhy would I do that? I'm literally putting someone elses work on this scene which is going to do the exact same thing. I also have a part time job at a translation group and we really hate it when sites like readlightnovel and wuxia.co copy paste the chapters
ReplyDeleteMy bad. Guess my impatience prevented me from seeing that. Looks like I'll just wait for Frozensama and the crew to finish it.
DeleteJust google the volume and chapter you want to read Demjin. It's not hard to find
ReplyDeleteHow long are you gonna finish a goddamn vol 9 of Rakudai?Advance the speed slowpoke!!!
ReplyDeleteChill out dude, they're doing this for free so they can go at their own pace
DeleteWhat a jerk. Frozen and the other translators are doing all of this for us, using their own time and hard work. They said they are still translating, and will resume after their RL stuff is resolved. So be patient, be thankful, and wait.
DeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
Deleteum.. dear sir, please calm your tatas down. I've seen these kind of comments many too often in other fandoms too, it would be best if we don't put pressure to our humble translator-san over there, it could be worse. It's better for our mutual understanding not to repeat history ever again, don't you think so?
Deleteread some xianxia novels if you want brutal killing yet op
ReplyDeleteThank you all for your hard work, i read the first half of volume 9 here and the second on jasonwonderblog and its just so amazing that i'll have to read it again when you finished translating it.
ReplyDeletePD: Looking forward to volume 10 eventually, thanks again for the translations.
Thank you very much for your hard work translating this light novel !
ReplyDeleteDon't ever think about dropping it :D
Few questions:
How many volumes does it have in total ?
Did the author "Riku Misora" already finish it or is it still ongoing ?
Another question:
DeleteIf the later volumes are way more interesting than the first ones, then why did the anime adaption stop at the mere volume 3 ?
The anime adaption didn’t do too well in Japan. Because of this, the studio that produced the anime (sorry forgot the name) decided it wouldn’t be in their best interest to continue the series. This happens a lot in the anime industry. Anime production isn’t cheap after all. Most of the time, the anime adaptions sole purpose is to advertise the light novel or manga, and therefore do not get a continuation. Only the most popular animes (SAO, Seven Deadly Sins, HS DxD, etc) rake in enough profit (through merchandise sales, DvD’s, and increased book sales ) to get another season. I agree that the later volumes are more interesting than the introduction chapters, but whether the studio decides to continue the show or not is out of our hands, sadly. Hope this helped.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for translating ��
ReplyDeleteDude fuckin when is V9 coming out? Just drop it if you can't handle it lazy assholes. I'm sure someone else will do a better job than u shits.
ReplyDeleteShut up and learn japanese if you don't want to wait
DeleteHey Village can you update your Mediafire folder with Vol 9 pdf please.
ReplyDeleteAre you guys planning on finishing the series? Just 3 chapters left, you can do it
ReplyDeleteWhat do you mean by only 3 chapters left? As far as I know there's already the 16th volume announced in Japan.
Deletehttps://rakudai-kishi.fandom.com/wiki/Light_Novel_Volume_16
I'm glad it's being translated at all. I sure would be happier if it were faster of course, because Rakudai is my favorite LN by far, but better slow progress than it being dropped. ^^
This ever going to get done if not just drop it and let someone else pick it up. its been months just for 1 chapter. translators have respect to not translate something someone else is doing but if you are not going to put effort into it let someone else pick it up.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.mediafire.com/folder/e6r4bdnk4643f/Rakudai_Kishi_no_Eiyuutan
ReplyDeletePDF
Consistent formatting across the board. Also contains alt covers. volume zero has been added
v10 is up
DeleteThank you for the translation.
DeleteV9 is up
Deletev11 is up
DeleteThank you so much for translating! I hope you keep adding more :D
DeleteFirst of all thank you very much for continuing to translate this LN, I really like this scenario, I thought that here in Brazil, a lot of people were not educated, and instead of thank you, coming to criticize or charging something that they are winning, that makes me disgusted, I think one 'thank you, keep up the work' is much more motivating than being collected and cursed, so I always ignore these types of people, because a true fan of LN has followed the releases for years and knows that it is not from day to night that things happen ..
ReplyDeleteHurry Up and finish Rakudai Vol 9,I'm sick of waiting for your slow ass translation.
ReplyDeleteShut the hell up you stupid prick
DeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteFrozen-sama, thank you for the translation. Please, update the links to the chapters on this page as well. Thank you.
ReplyDelete@Village Idiot, please upload the vol. 9 in pdf and epub. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteDo you have any plans to translate Volume 10 or more?
ReplyDeleteIf you wanna read vol 10 you can go on taekan website
DeleteI just want to say thanks again for translating this. I'm glad you were able to finish volume 9 before it got licensed.
ReplyDeleteI will of course buy the licensed translations from SOL Press.
And then the translation rolls back to 1 again. I guess ill read all those summaries from wiki upto the latest. Thanks anyway for translating this that led the title to be noticed and officially licensed.
ReplyDeleteWhat happened? How come I read any of this?
