The prologue is out now and apparently this is based on the Chihayafuru franchise but written in novel form. Decent start though with the main character Chihaya as well as the introduction. There's obvious the theme of karuta being played so I'm curious to see how this will go. Apparently, there are 4 volumes that have all been published.
