From the 9th volume, announcing a new island adventure! The ladies await!

“War in Paradise” (or could be “Trouble in Paradise”) a new original light-novel work from Tenchi Muyo creator Kajishima Masaki will be released for young adults in spring of 2013 by Kodansha Books!

The series centers around a high school student(s), stuck in the middle of a great upheaval (military comes in, or great personal distress).

There is a great cost in waiting for one you yearn for… many things are left behind at the crossroads of life…

“This island atmosphere is a beautiful one, with cloudless skies, lush forests, and a transparent ocean dyed a striking emerald blue. Ah! This can be considered paradise…”

“On this island, I met from a chance encounter, 4 beautiful foreign girls, who all came to stay here. To be around them… isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Although something is strange concerning how they came to be here… Oh?! They showed up just when I had finally grown accustomed to living alone. This used to be a tranquil paradise… but now?”

The second part is just a mess, can’t really tell what it’s saying:

~~Quote:~~

Inside the front cover (or from the front ad):

“Although the boy enjoys himself in a life of comfort, he himself was born from a beauty over a hundred years old…”

or

~~Quote:~~

Inside the front cover (or from the front ad):

“While this promises to be a lot of fun, the girl is still from 100 years ago, and there will be conflict.”

I’m not a translator… just reading it multiple ways and adding my personal experience with Japanese seems to clear it up some.

This is regarding Kajishima’s printed work, and NOT the anime projects he currently has in the works, those are still yet unidentified

  Just to be clear, the info appears to be from the GXP #9 dust jacket, not the new doujin.
  
  P.S.- I didn’t “find” anything (I ain’t that smart), I was merely made aware of its existence.

  A Japanese blog is stating that the name of the series will be Paradise War 『パラダイスウォー』.

  There’s also the possibility we were treated to a preview a couple of years ago:

  Eh trouble in paradise sounds a lot better….
  
  And yeah… that pretty much is exactly what I’d expect from KM. Always wondered what he was smoking when that cover came out.

  I’d forgotten about this cover. I bet this is from Paradise War.

  I like the softer looks of the characters on the actual book cover than the doujinshi cover.

  Same, did he actually do this cover? If so, I would not at all be mad if this is his “new” style.

  I don’t think so, the style looks like the person doing the inside illustrations.
  
  I’m OK with it though, we’ve seen his stuff before.
