I i just wanted to ask about this beast novel everyone is referring to because Im really interested and have no idea if I can read is somewhere in English.... Can you help me? Or any kind os bsd novel tho.°^°
The BEAST light novel everyone is talking about hasn’t been translated by anyone yet as far as I know, but you can read a fantastic synopsis with excerpts by looking-for-stray-dogs here. FIFTEEN is the same, not translated but you can read the synopsis with excerpts here.
If you want to read the other light novels then here are the links for them:
Dazai’s Entrance Exam: translation by chendaere.tumblr.com is in progress. The translation is just missing part of chapter 3, chapter 4, Intermission Part 2, and the Epilogue. (And something seems to be wrong with their tumblr because I can’t click the “Keep reading” and see their translations, so I will provide a link to my Google Document of it here). Another translator, @dazaimackerelosamu, picked up the translation at the beginning of Chapter 4 and has finished translating the rest (@lordnetanyahu was the one who informed me their continuation of the translation). I have put both translations into the Google Document.
Dazai Osamu and the Dark Era: translation by nkhrchy.tumblr.com is complete. You can find the masterpost here.
The Untold Story of the Founding of the Detective Agency: translation by snowyeskque.tumblr.com is in progress. The translation has gotten to Chapter 1 Part 2. You can find their translation masterpost here.
55 Minutes: Someone started translating it, but their Tumblr account seems to have been deleted, so the translation isn’t likely to continue. I have a Google Document where I kept the first 4 parts of their translation that you can find the link to on my Links page: https://bsd-bibliophile.tumblr.com/links
Another Story (Gaiden): translation in progress by ranposama.tumblr.com. They are also in charge of translating the manga version of this light novel. You can find the light novel masterpost here, and the manga masterpost here.
