After winning the Dengeki award and debuting with A/B Extreme in 2002, author Takahashi Yashichirou decided to write something easy to understand, and really hit the jackpot with Shakugan no Shana, which has been one of the absolute top sellers of this decade, amassing sales in the region of 6 million copies across the 18 volumes of the main story and several spin-offs. It’s futile to introduce Shana, since everyone and his grandmother knows about the series already, but for the sake of completion, I’ll do it anyway. I know you’ve been worried in my absence, but there’s no need I’m back now. With this first volume of Shakugan no Shana, it took me a full month. In the case of Zero no Tsukaima, the span of an entire novel can be cleared in one or two days’ time. Normally I’ll finish a book of this size in around ten hours, give or take a few depending on language level and page count.
