So…I ended up decided to pick this series up as a side project. For anyone who didn't read my first post regarding this series, here is a reiteration of the conditions that I had for it as a translator:

That being said, F is a good read that I personally found to be quite charming. It is, however, a very different novel than Rain. For one, F is a shojo novel written in the first person perspective –specifically the perspective of Hibiki, a 15-year-old girl who acts and thinks like what you would expect of a sheltered 15-year-old girl. Thus, the style of this series is a lot less mature than that of Rain. Also, Fs pacing is much slower than Rain‘s. About two-thirds of the first volume is world-building, and the main characters don't even get to their first objective by the end of the volume. While I would highly recommend anyone to at least give F a try, I will warn that it is a vastly different experience than Rain.

Lastly, the author has put this series on hiatus. It is currently three volumes long, but the last volume was published in 2015. According to the , she seems to have major writer's block in regards to this series (in part due to the differences between the web version and the published version, apparently) and is focusing on her numerous other works instead.
