That’s right, the Light Novel Club IPO is now available for trading, at a value of 5 other-world currency coins per share!
…okay, that’s obviously not what I mean by going “public”. What I mean is, from here on out we will be holding our Light Novel Club discussions on the official public Beneath the Tangles Discord! We have a whole bunch of channels where light novel fans can chat with each other, and in particular one channel will be where we will have our Light Novel Club discussions from now on. And the best part is, anyone can participate in those discussions now!
Of course, we need a novel to discuss, so without further ado, our next title is…
Re:Zero – Starting Life in Another World (Vol. 1)!
This popular isekai light novel series has gotten a popular anime adaptation, the second season of which is airing now! If you’re curious how the original light novel reads, now’s the perfect chance to jump in and see what it’s like!
Here’s the volume 1 description from Yen Press:
Subaru Natsuki was just trying to get to the convenience store but wound up summoned to another world. He encounters the usual things–life-threatening situations, silver haired beauties, cat fairies–you know, normal stuff. All that would be bad enough, but he’s also gained the most inconvenient magical ability of all–time travel, but he’s got to die to use it. How do you repay someone who saved your life when all you can do is die?
You can find links for purchasing the volume either physically or digitally on Yen Press’s site.
Important note about our schedule, now that discussions are public: discussion starts on the Discord on September 22nd. We generally discuss a given volume over a week, and while we don’t mind if you’re late to the discussion, after a week I will no longer include new comments in the discussion blog post. On that note, the blog post will go up around September 30th, now with your own comments included! (If you prefer to have your comments be anonymous or not appear in the post, you can request that in the Discord.)

Announcements for our next novels will also appear early on the Discord, so that’s all the more reason to join! We already have our novel for the following month announced there, too; if you want to get a head start on reading that, our October 2020 novel is Tearmoon Empire (Vol. 2).
Whether you join us for this month’s discussion or for any future Light Novel Club discussion, we hope you will join our Discord and make this a true Light Novel Club!
