No Game No Life (light novel)
| I am reading the official release form Yen Press and I have read volume 4+5 and I don't really get what's happening. It's so confusing, it might be because English isn't my first language but I'm sure that I can read and understand enough to read a book (I read a lot of English books). Am I the only one having this problem? I think that the translation itself is flawed. |

| why do you think the novel is so terrible? I admit is hard to read because it has a different style than a normal book (short paragraphs, too many dashes... ) but it makes sense. English is not my first language either and I understood what was going on :/ You also need to consider the fact that the author was originally a mangaka so his writing skills are not superb.... |
| -have you watched the anime? pretty easy to understand unlike the manga |

I don't get what's going on tbh It feels like I'm just reading text. I understand every word but still it feels like I don't get it. |

Some explanations can be a little messy but if you reread it it should be fine.. |
| Maybe you can't concentrate? I personally forget what I read when I'm not focused. |

| Are you not used to reading LN? All LN has almost 0 narrative. I was like that when I first started reading LN too. They don't give much to entice imagination, so most of them look like empty dialogues. They have some illustrations right? Go back to it once in awhile to make sense of the situation in the novel sometimes. |
| Just try either other translation or getting it in your language. |
 One man is no more than another, if he do no more than what another does. |

I read SAO up to volume 9 , Monogatari series up to Bakemonogatari second volume, Dungeon, log horizon so I'm not THAT inexpierenced. it's just this novel |
