Hi! I'm Night and I'm a fox, but everyone can see on the left side of this post. Although it's a fairly recent picture I dont were the glowing tattoo on my forehead anymore, now it's around the right eye, when take a more up to date foto I'll change the profile pic. Now enough about by pic. First I want to thank from the bottom of my heart ALL of the Prince Revolution staff (really all of them, past and present and future) for all of the great work you have done in spreading the joys of this novels to every one. \( =*V*= )/ ~~so happy~~~ All of you are great workers. Second I want to get along with everybody here and make lots of friends, so ... HELLO EVERYBODY!!! NICE TO MEET YOU!!! Third Yu Wo novels have had an impact in my life long before I even knew... (- v -) ~~~ lost in thoughts remembering "the event" ~~~ But I don't want to bother you with an old childhood story, so let's skip it. On to the much recent story of how I found PR. Like many here I was guided to PR by the overly bright and sparkly "Legend of the Sun Knight" manhua. Many time would I get to the end of chapter and see a page advertising of the PR site. One day as I was tired of rereading the manhua while waiting for an updated I said to my self "ok, lets find out what this place is all about. I wonder if reading in novel form is just as fun as reading a manga?". So I went there, was completely amazed and never left. It has recently made one year anniversary that I stalk the PR site as a reader. Sorry for talking to much.

Hello all! I'm Ros. I first came to prince revolution about 6? years ago? when I found that the 1/2 prince manga was not being translated fast enough... but the site was called something else back then... halfprince.wordpress.net? something like that. I have been lurking ever since. Several years ago, I was shocked and appalled when the translators for 1/2 prince started translating a new novel! The horror! Thus, I shunned Sun Knight for awhile. Eventually, when my rabid appetite for 1/2 prince became too much for me, I tried to sate it by reading ~~just a chapter or two~~ of SK. Later that day, I started crying when I found that only two volumes had been translated... Years later, you translators started branching out again **faints***. NO! My SK! I cried, saddened by this "No Hero" I was suddenly hearing about... repeat above scenario I expect this pattern to continue for awhile. Currently I am shunning Illusions, Lies Truth and Romance RPG. I also went back to shunning SK after the 4th volume, because I KNOW that if I don't manage to finish the last 4 volumes in one stretch, I will hit a cliffhanger and start crying again. The only things I haven't shunned are 1/2 prince, Female warrior (which is totally SK, I told myself), and Dominion's end... I would like to thank the translators for consistently translating posting such great novels. While I am sad that the speed of individual novels has slowed down, I feel that you guys have really good taste, and the variety makes up for it all! Yu Wo is such a great author, and I'm glad she is willing to let you guys translate her stuff. When I saw you all had a forum now, I really wanted to be part of your community... though I'm mostly playing the forum games... But I also wanted you to know that I have been coming to PR pretty much weekly (if not more often) since I found it. This was the first site of this kind I ever looked at... And I want to thank you for everything. **note to any who may take offense at my shunning. It is a joke, mostly, making fun of my foolishness in the past and current delay of reading certain things. I am not complaining to the translators or disparaging the novels themselves. I'm sure they're really good--I just haven't gotten around to some of them yet.**

Hello, I'm Monica. An ordinary Indonesian girl who loves to read manga with handsome character ^o^ A tranny (my chara all boys :3) and hardcore MMORPG player who loves grinding. I met 1/2 Prince manhua while searching through genre "Fantasy", "Comedy" and "Gender Bender." Hey, she's a tranny like me! XD An avid reader of fantasy light novel since I met PR! website while reading 1/2 Prince manhua. Light novel is good! *browsing google* While skimming through the mangafox website and click the random button, I met LSK manhua. Then, started reading LSK in PR! too when I realized it's Yu Wo creation. It's Yu Wo again? *read* Eclipse Hunter was found while I was waiting for CITT in Odd Squad website. Hey, it's Yu Wo! *read* When I was waiting Japtem website release it's project, I met Kill No More and started to love it too. Yu Wo's again! *read* I met Gong Hua when realize it's one of Yu Wo creation too at Giraffe website while reading Sunken Moon there. Tragedy? No objection! *read* Now, when I see "Yu Wo" names, I will read it *LOL* If I have to choose my favorites in Yu Wo creation, I think I can't compare this 1/2 Prince or LSK or KNM or EH or NH @_@ I really like to pestering asking my friends to read Yu Wo creation like how Grisia become the walking billboard of the Church of the God of Light. It has failed, many of my friends didn't like to read novel in English language. So to increase my pestering persuasion skill, I joined PR! International and had already translated some of the chapters of LSK in Indonesian language in there. I will not give up until Yu Wo's creation conquer the world fans increased.
My wishlist: I really hoped GOD will be translated to English. I want to read it too.. Pretty please? T^T

Heyo! I'm Kientas , and though I'm not too sure exactly how long I've been following PR! (how do you guys figure it out?), it's definitely been a couple of years, at least! I'm not really good at tracking time... (I hope it's okay if we have a lot to say! I have stories I wanted to share, but if it's too long I'll try to cut it or something :>) I found out about Prince Revolution in a slightly roundabout way. First, I saw a short maplestory(?) video/series based off 1/2 Prince, and thought the story was really cute! However, the animator discontinued the series, and only stated that it was based off a Chinese novel by Yu Wo (which still frustrates me to no end because while I'm Chinese, I can't read it very well nor support the author by buying her books because I don't live in China or Taiwan). I never thought I'd see it again, until I stumbled upon the manga online a couple years later. I quickly recognized it to be based off the videos and was slightly saddened when I found out it wasn't completed. I checked a couple of forums and eventually learned that a group was translating the novel into English! I loved the novel and every bit of effort the staff put into translating it! (Like seriously, you guys are the best. You even put recipes and pictures in the footnotes.) I ended up following the group because the 1/2 Prince was still being translated. I only read other series after it was completed because I didn't think they be as good as 1/2 Prince, but now I love LSK and Dominion's End a lot more than 1/2 Prince! (1/2 Prince is still really cool though! Plus the effort in the footnotes.) Hmm... I really love drawing (still not that good at it but practice is progress), and reading. I used to read a few of the comments if there weren't too many/too long; everyone's reactions and speculations were always fun to hear about and usually different from one another! If you ever want to chat or anything you can send me a message, I would love to befriend you guys I'm just not that good at verbal(?) communication so bear with me. (I'd like to add that though I commented on very few chapters, the name I used to use was MoonElla (though I doubt anyone would recognize me))

Hi! I'm Anixancy! I'm also known as NanoLaughing in the comments of PR translated chapters (although I was referred as 10^-9Laughing on the PR blog???), I plan to rename myself Anixancy very soon in the comments though. I'm just your average Vietnamese-American citizen and an advocated for civil rights and egalitarian.
I've been around PR since 2011~2012 and I first found out about PR through OddSquad Scans who were translating and scanning Half Prince at the time. I was so frustrated waiting for the next update so I went into Google to see if there was any site out there translating any HP works. The first time I got involved in the PR community was in 2012 and the PR staff was hosting a contest for the "Behind the Scenes at PR!" and I won with another very kind fan! I fondly remember many things about that time: I won some sort of game and trick someone with the phrase "one king/ring to rule them all!", someone on PR introduced me to YAOI (Bwahahaha!), Amgine is a scary grammar Nazi that ruthlessly cuts down bad grammar alongside with a few other staff members (boo hoo!), I was trolled a lot but never noticed because I'm just that gullible and especially back then, regardless of Amgine scaring me at the time- I am also there #1 fan, I also liked to smack them with a rice paddle (you read it right), and their voice is very cute (truth)!! Yes, even after 4 long years, I'm still your #1 fan Amgine! LOL, though, I'm pretty sure no one remembers ANY of that.
Some of my hobbies include: drawing, smacking the soul out of people with rice paddles, reading, and discussions. I'm very happy that I joined the PR community because I have met a few wonderful people that I can gladly call my friends. //I'm looking @ you Kiyu//
And yeah, it's actually awesome to be meeting everyone!

Cool, looks like no one has introduced themselves in a while, so while I am on my "lets become active on PR" kick, might as well continue.
I am Kamui (Japanese pronunciation, if you please. Any CLAMP fans here?) and I have been around for...too long. I lurked in the shadows, reading only occasionally when I biked four miles to the library to use internet. I never used to comment *bows in apology* so I am sorry to the staff for that. Later, I had the prince reader app on my 1st smartphone, and refused to change to a new smartphone because I did not want to loose the LSK chapters I had on it... but it also meant that I never commented either. Even after the app stopped working properly, my phone was old to the point that commenting on the website was too much for it to handle.
Moving on from my phone: I started with Eclipse Hunter from Oddsquad...and don't really remember the chain of events that lead me here.
LSK is absolutely my favorite series from Yo Wo, though DE is catching up and I am enjoying ILT...ITL...whatever the order is, Illusions, something, and something. I am probably one of the few people that consider Grisia Sun to be a role model (any Diplomacy, Werewolf, Two Rooms and a Boom, Etc. players out there?), and hope I will actually get to meet Yu Wo at some point (even if my Mandarin is only at the level of a recalcitrant two-year-old, since those WERE my teachers).
Reading is my number one hobby, followed by sculpting, playing various instruments including, but not limited to, piano and ocarina, and playing games, both video and otherwise.
Hope we can all get along and pass the time between updates joyfully: よろしくおねがいします!(or the Chinese equivalent, whatever that would be)
