1. What this site is

This site publishes English fan translations of Japanese light novels. Every story, character, and illustration belongs to its original author, illustrator, and publisher. The translations here are unofficial, derivative works; we claim no ownership of the source material and no affiliation with its rights holders.

2. About paid features, honestly

Reading here is free at its core, and some chapters carry an unlock price in Spirit Stones — posted on the seal, set by the translator or the posted length tariff; readers may also choose to donate. That money supports the craft of the book’s team — translators and editors alike — at the posted revenue share — it is payment for the labor of translation, not a sale of the original work. We believe in saying this plainly rather than hiding behind the word “free”.

3. For rights holders

If you hold rights to a work published here and want it removed, write through the contact page with the work, your claim, and proof of rights. Valid requests are honored promptly: the work comes down, and Stones readers spent on it within the posted refund window are returned to their balances, as promised in our Terms.

4. Support the official releases

If a story earns your heart, buy it. Official purchase links, where available, are posted on each work’s own page. Nothing supports an author like a sale.

5. No warranties

Translations are human work and may contain errors (readers can flag them with the “suggest a fix” tool in every chapter). The site is provided as-is; we cannot promise uninterrupted service.

Questions? The contact page reaches a human.
