Access For Free 図書館戦争 (図書館戦争, #1) Illustrated By Hiro Arikawa Offered As Digital Paper

I've read the manga series that was based on this movie three times, I've watched all the anime adaptations, I watched the live action movie, and then I found an obscure English translation of the original novels somehow and read them all.
Was I obsessed Absolutely. Were they actually good Since they're based on a silly but wonderful premise, and since they contain tropes galore, AND since the romance is basically all I was there for, I could only bring myself to give them three each.
But they were such an enjoyable ride!!! I miss those times, This is the best book ever made! The romance is killing me! i got so many people into this great book and all had the same review about it! I' only up to bookbut im gonna keep reading! ive read all eleven bookstimes! i never get sick of it! im even rereading it now! once theth book comes out i shall reread it again making it my seventh time!i hope they make more books like this in the future! 漂書已記錄 展開はベタだけどきゅんきゅんする Very, very cute, and adds a few details that don't make it into the manga.
I will say that I didn't read this is JapaneseI found a fan translation online, and it was very well done, 感覺比較像純愛小說不太像科幻小說故事還算輕鬆有趣但感覺並不是我的菜應該不會再追續集了 I read a really good translation of this online at sitelink livejournal. com/
Check it out! 悪くはない
数年前に話題になったのも納得の本好き軍隊好きにはたまらないであろう話
しかもメインの人物関係は単純
漫画にしたらぴったりだろうなと思うというか漫画版もあったような気がするチェックしてみるか

私は何年か前に実写映画をみてしまったのでどうしても堂上が岡田准一で脳内再生される嫌いではないけどちょっと自分なりの堂上を想像したかったな

話は５章に分かれていてそれぞれ主人公笠原郁の阿呆全開ながらも優秀な図書館員っぷりが描かれる
そこそこ楽しいんだが何か読みづらい
何故だろう
久々のラノベだから

続きが気になるけどもう一回読みたいと思わせる内容ではないので星３つ
全部読み終わったらまた違う感想を持つかも

ちなみに初めのくらいはありえない設定のアニメ本軍隊オタク向けラノベと思って読んでいたが途中日野の悪夢なる事件が描かれ図書を守る人々が殺されるシーンがある
それを読んでいて実際にこういう事件過去に起きてないかと思ったら怖くなった
文化大革命では知識人が大量に殺されたし治安維持法下の日本だって似たような感じ
Mr.
Pipでも似たようなことがアフリカだったかなで起きていたように記憶している
軽いけど考える材料にはなるなこの本

Fahrenheitを読んだ事だしと思ってこのシリーズ読もうと思ったんだった
こっちの方が面白い当然か
特殊な設定なしならラブコメだし

アニメは微妙というかつまらん本に沿ってるけどアニメならではの表現があってもいいのにそのまま
映画もアニメも微妙, . . 漫画はどうかな “Where they burn books, they will ultimately also burn people, Heinrich Heine

Imagine a world where the books we read are considered catalysts for the minds of serial killers, A world where the ideas we express and publish are considered so dangerous, that even stories like Little Red Riding Hood would be taken off of shelves and burned for its "violent content.
"

Imagine a world where libraries and those who recognized this overblown censorship enlisted to fight for our freedom of expression, Where lives were in danger over censorship unlawfully imposed on us, You might be thinking, "Why in the world would you be willing to die for books" Well, then you have a lot to think about dear friend.
As silly as the concept is, if you actually look into it, this concept of censorship is happening around us all the time, If you don't see the connection of how branding our entertainment as evil influences over our minds, that humans are so weak willed that they would emulate what books had depicted, then you fail to see what makes this story so important.



Kasahara Iku has been waiting to read the last book in a series forYEARS, When she finally gets the chance to buy it, the Improvement Special Agency part of the Media Improvement Committee who are doing the censorship storm in to the bookstore.
Iku slips the book under her shirt, but suddenly, an enforcer grabs it from her, Iku desperately fights to keep her book, To anyone who understands the pain of waiting for a conclusion to a series, to have their rights violated, I am certain you can understand Iku's feelings and actions, even if the concept of the story might still sound absurd to you.
Just as she is shoved to the ground, someone catches her, This man becomes such a prominent figure to Iku that she vows to join the Library Defense Force after he saves all of the books from censorship and returns her the book she had been waiting foryears to read.



Problem is, she never saw his face, She remembers the feeling of his arms as he caught her, his heroic rescue of the books, and his victory, She equates him to a prince for she is a huge romantic, and after evaluating her choices in college, proceeds to enlist to the Defense Force.
Iku is the first woman ever to put the Defense Force as her first choice, she's driven, and she's extremely tall for a Japanese girl, towering over her instructor.
Her instructor, Doujou, seems to always be finding ways to criticize her, and Iku disdains him, It isn't until she gets to know her instructor better, that she realizes he might care more about her than she ever knew, and that her "prince" might be closer than she thought.



Toshokan SensouLibrary Wars in Englishstarted as this Light Novel series, then inspired a manga series, an anime, an anime movie, and a live action movie with a sequel based on the second light novel coming out October.
I watched the movie first before realizing there were other ways of watching the series but instantly fell in love, The acting was amazing, the characters were great and the romance wasn't in your face, Just like this book, everything was well done,

Those who have read light novels before will probably tell you how poorly written they are, I have to disagree. You must take into account the fact that this is written in a different style to fit a different culture, Whereas most YA books have plenty of detail, light novels tend to speed forward, They don't waste time describing the color of someone's eyes or how their hair looks or what exact brand of clothing they own, or what kind of tree this is etc.
They spend time developing the characters, making you understand the world and politics and rules set up, and make you dive into the thoughts of the characters.
It was a different experience, Light novels treat you as intelligent, They assume you as the reader can interpret the surrounding of the story without too much detail, They treat you as an intelligent person, This is not to say that YA treats you as someone of no intelligence, but I have noticed now just how excessive the use of detail is in our books.



The translations of this book were done by Methiliel, This book not licensed in English so there was no way to read it until now, I have to give this translator a huge round of applause, Written Japanese is extremely difficultbelieve me, I'm learning itand the cultural nuances that are not voiced are very difficult to notice unless you already know Japanese.
Thankfully, there are footnotes where necessary to inform you of things you should know, such as events in history or why a characters is speaking a certain way and WHY that is important.
Methiliel truly deserves so much more attention for this and I cannot thank her enough,


Now, the ROMANCE! XD In Japanese culture, PDA and such things are not so common, It's embarrassing and not done in public, so it is a HUGE deal when two character's set up as potential love interests touch someonenot in a dirty way, you dirty minded people! or let them cry on their shoulder, or speak in a tone too familiar or call them by their first name.
Imagine calling your professor or boss by their first name without a title suddenly and without having known them for long, That's pretty awkward, so when Japanese people call someone by their first name, that's a HUGE deal, It basically implies that the speaker sees you as a true friendor more than a friendand is hoping that you as well reciprocate and will become more familiar with them.
Sort of. It's really complicated but all you need to know is that this is a monumental thing, As such, there was no kissing in this book, but dear lord that sexual tension was enough to nearly set my computer document file on fire.
They needed to do this, And I almost thought it would happen,


Thankfully, what romance there is, is subtle and in no way overrides the plot, The characters all have a part and grow, and characters you think you will hate end

up becoming better than you thought,

My only complaint is that after I finished, there was no ending like in the movie, What! Yep, I honestly believe the movie was better in the last part, As great as the original work is, this is one of those rare cases where the movie did something better than the book, We had this huge showdown, I thought it was going to happen because of what happened near the end, but nope, If you want a REALLY well done fight scene that has romantic tension, a kickass female protagonist, and a real sense of danger, see the ending part of the movie.


"圖書館的自由被侵犯之時吾輩必團結力守自由" which is my favorite part of the proclamation of the freedom of library,
I think what makes this series successful is that Hiro Arikawa has blended the serious topics and the romantic comedy between Dojo and Kasahara perfectly.
Also it grips my heart as the freedom of speech is being suppressed, which is pretty similar to the situation in Hong Kong, Maybe we should think, what can we do in order to protect to freedom of speech and mind 友達に薦められて

最近亡くなられてた児玉清のインタビュー付きおれもあのじいちゃんの声がすきだった



さて図書館戦争児玉清が言うようにたった条の何の変哲もない図書館宣言から

ここまで世界観を広げるのはお見事



ただこの小説がイイのはそこじゃない

友達が言っていたようにこれはラブコメだ

言論の自由やそれを守る図書隊といったお堅い議論を表面上見せてはいるけど

本流は不器用な主人公の恋愛筋が分かりやすい分読んじゃうのだ

少女マンガみたいな設定も結構好き



そうすると会話の端々にあるお堅い議論もわりと面白く読めてしまう枝葉も生きる

読んだあとなるほどっとも思う



ジョージオーウェルの１９８４も実は同じ

あれもラブロマンスが全体の流れを支えてるから実は凄い読みやすい



やっぱり堅いことを伝えたいって思っていても小説がエンタメであることを忘れちゃいけないよね

評論じゃないんだからさ I first learned of the Library Wars series though reading the manga adaptation at my library.
The four novels were never published into English, to my knowledge, Luckily, I found this translation by Melithiel, Library War is the first book of the four and was exactly what I hoped and expected out of it, Arikawa makes readers think about the role of censorship and when it can be taken too far, The role of the public library in the defense of censorship plays a central role to this series, and it is fun to imagine if it were reality.
