So, on his Facebook page, Tony Valente talk about the Radiant anime to his fan, and i translated it for all the non-French and anime only people, enjoy your read :)

Tony Valente : "I suspected that a lot of readers from the first hour would not find themselves in the freedom of the first part of the season! To be honest, when I saw the scripts of the first half come I turned and we had a lot of sags with the production team ... obviously the manga was not calibrated to make episodes digest they had to rework them and add original content. Even if I understand their arguments, I would have preferred it to be done otherwise, I admit. We agreed as we went along, and finally on arc rumble town they ended up following the story of the manga more closely! a personal advice, if you do not see so many different things, wait for the second half to embark on the series again! And if not, there is still the manga, he will not change direction :)" So, i recommanded to all the anime only people to hear the advices of Tony Valente and go read the manga, because he will not change direction

For the people who want the source : https://www.facebook.com/groups/1568774690085447/permalink/1923628621266717/Read the comments, and will find a comment from Tony Valent (i verrified, it's not a fake account)

There is like 70+ chapters so far in french and ~60 in japanese, but the guy who translated first volume in english stopped at those 4 first chapters. And no one else tried to translate it after that (except for viz who just released first volume last month). I began to translate the 5th chapter this weekend, and I'll try to do as far as I can. Also do note that I'm doing this translation only so that more people can learn the existence of the manga, I just want people to support the official release, but like you said only 5 chapters really ain't that much to get a grasp of what Radiant really is, and I do know that it's always a hassle to just buy manga volume of a serie if you don't have a clue where the author is going with his story.

I suppose there is no official English version. If there’s only 12 ch why has it taken so long to translate?

There is 17 chapters right now scantranslated and the official english release just started 2 months ago so there is something like 12 official chapters (2 volumes out in english).
There is 75+ chapters atm in french, and around 60 in japanese.
And to answer your question about why it has taken so long to translate, well no one gave a shit about the manga before the anime adaptation that's why :p

I think it's the first time that French being my main language gave me an advantage. Excellent >:}

Too bad im not french :v so i can't be that fan that contacts him lol. But i wish the author doesnt feel too bad about the disappointment of his fans and his own, i'm sure he wasnt expecting it to be quite like that.

I personally like Radiant, even if i admit Lerche is doing a poor job, i can see why the manga is liked, and no matter how bad the anime is, the characters are pretty likable still, even with all the filler. Mellie is the best character <3

p.s pls translate manga into english :v

The manga is great, especially the latest volumes. And yet I fail to understand why there are so many (bad) original content right from the beginning of the anime...

Sorry if this is horribly late, but I saw him in an event in Kyoto last November and even talked to him + got his signature! He speaks English fluently so go ahead and send him something!! :D
