NanoDesu Translations 42nd Project: Kokoro Connect

NanoDesu Translations extends a warm welcome to defan752 who will be joining our translation staff to work on Kokoro Connect!

Novel Summary (heavily adapted from MAL): We join our heroes in Club Building Room 401: five seemingly normal high school students. They are brought together and tied by the Cultural Research Club, and spend time together as best friends. Each of them have their own unique personalities, and though they might not always agree with each other, they never leave anyone behind.
All is well, until they’re confronted by a supernatural entity calling himself “Heartseed”. Heartseed has taken a liking to the club members, and demands to see them become more “fascinating”, threatening consequences otherwise. Do the students take Heartseed seriously? What will happen to them?
This is the story of five students, five kids, five humans, five lives intertwining with each other as their friendship is put to the ultimate test.

We’re proud to be the group that will, together with defan, help keep this series’s translation alive, and are looking forward to the great material that is sure to come out of this effort. A full chapter is already posted on the site, so get going and start reading! As always, due to the large workload involved in translating a series, please remember to say thanks to the translator when you’re taking a break from reading.

NOTE: We will not be starting this project from the beginning – instead, we will be starting from Volume 5, and we encourage anybody who wants to start at the beginning to read Volumes 1-4 on Baka-Tsuki.
