I’m the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire!

yes unfortunately official translations are incredibley slow

cant post the direct link since comments rules deny link in the text box

this is the google translate barely passable English translation. google translate the first site that pops in google search 三嶋与夢 syosetu dig for series > serialized > evil lord > this is for all the chapters, for those up to chapter 9 and waiting for it to complete to start, might as well read the polish translation here and read the rest machine translate at the above link. other option is since your likely to find more japanese webnovels to read, is study japanese, up to middle school grade should be enough to get able to read most japanese content like 90ish% for future japanese stories. or just enjoy the sneak pick of the rough draft and wait for the anime adaption to come out and cover vol 1-2 years down the road. books should be up for vol 5 localize at least by the time the anime comes out. vol 3 is already out the plan next year is unlikely since anime new should be announce over a year in advance. so after book 5 at the earliest for anime.

no there was one guy translating it and he was using patreon but he was forced to stop

Soo do we have hope that there will be a nother translator?

there is no sign anyone is going to translate it unfortunately

He doesn't become evil at all. I remember I picked this up because of the antihero tag. But even the antihero tag is misleading as everything he does is really good. When I think of Antihero I think of Punisher or oldschool comic Batman when he actually killed people, before his rewrite of 'moral codes. ' Of course, I guess present work Batman at some point can be seen between a cross of viligante and antihero. If you looking for more Antihero protagonist I suggest Isaac, sadly the novel is very slow in updates(or translation) but least you will see a WORLDS APART difference in mentality and behavior of what I view is the truer definition of someone with antihero characteristics. If you can make it past the intro war part, then you are golden with that novel. So in essence this novel is more PRETEND EVIL. Yes, that is it and that is the other reason I dropped it. Also Dungeon Defense(Web Novel version) I don't think it is on here though. Sense web novel has like 300+ chapters.

It's more like he believes himself to be evil and he is convinced that he is exploiting his people, but everyone else just considers him a kind and wise Count, with a short temper. Every time he tries to do something that he considers evil, the people rejoice because they believe that he is actually helping them. i.e raising taxes, the people believe that he intends to use the taxes to improve healthcare, whereas he initially just wanted to make cash.

Lmao what kind of reason is this

the light novel is currently localize up to vol 2 from seven sea entertainment, the currently translation release is based on the web novel chapter, also for anyone interested i recommend reading the light novel book once they get localize since the content also get polish and offers additional new content to entice sales for the various mediums.

vol 3 is out already fyi
