Yes, the manga is definitely licensed and I THINK the novels are actually too but I'm not too sure. BUT I know people who translated the WHOLE novel series... all 20 volumes on livejournal and different websites... so if you want the link just send me a message and give me your hotmail or something and I can send you the link.
I'm very familiar with the websites, but I'm pretty anal about details.. so the summaries, when the translations aren't available, put me off & I find myself stuck on the last fan-translation that I could find (Volume 9 or 10, I can't remember now). I even got desperate to the point of getting my hands on the Novel raws & using google translate but it wasn't at all the same & I still felt that I was missing the bigger picture..
The novels haven't been licensed yet so I'm finding myself between a rock & a hard place & I'm unable find closure on the relationship between Naoe & Takaya I don't understand why they haven't licensed it already.. it has to be by far one of the best BL stories out there.
Thank you for your kind consideration though
You're welcome! I'm just glad that you were able to read them. But personally I read and found all 20 volumes, and they didn't seem to be translated badly at all nor were they summaries. But I hope you have better luck than me :(
I think the reason why they haven't translated it yet may be because it's so old and the actual manga is licensed. I totally agree that this series is so freaking awesome and totally deserves a reboot on the anime or at least a season 2. The OVA was spectacular though ;)
Does anyone know where I can find 40+ vol of mirage of blaze?
