Sounds generic? It’s not.
But here’s the catch. While the official translations are solid, a growing number of readers are ditching them and hunting down the Japanese chapters. Why? Let’s break it down. First, What’s the Hype About? For the uninitiated: Our MC, Lloyd, reincarnates as the seventh prince of a magical kingdom. Instead of chasing the throne, he does the smart thing — hides his overwhelming power and obsessively pursues forbidden magic in his basement laboratory.
Use raws to preview. Buy the volumes to support. And never skip the after-chapter bonus comics — they’re untranslated gold.
If you’ve been anywhere near the isekai manga community lately, you’ve probably heard the mouthful of a title: Tensei shittara Dainana Ouji Datta node, Kimama ni Majutsu o Kiwamemasu — or as fans affectionately call it, Dainana Ouji (The Seventh Prince).
If you can read basic hiragana/katakana, buy the digital Magazine Pocket release or the tankobon on Bookwalker Japan. Support the artist (Rin Sensei — their anatomy work is chef’s kiss). But Isn’t Reading Raws Illegal? Grey area. Accessing officially released raws via paid Japanese platforms? Fine. Downloading ripped chapters from scanlation sites? Technically piracy. Most fans justify it as “reading ahead before buying the volume,” but be honest with yourself — and consider tossing a few coins to the official release when it hits your region. The Verdict: Go Raw for the Experience, Stay for the Art If you’re a casual reader, wait for the official translation. But if you’re obsessed with spellcraft details, can’t stand translation delays, or just want to admire Rin’s unedited linework — learning to read raw chapters is a game-changer.
