@Silver-Sugar-Duchess The licensing suggestion forum exists for people to have a place to bring attention to series, but it is ultimately for suggestions, and there are no guarantees. Even if you got 10,000 people to flood Starbucks with requests to sell beer and edibles at their stores, that doesn't mean it makes sense for them from a marketing standpoint, from a profitability standpoint, from a legal standpoint, etc.
We greatly appreciate the enthusiasm shown for so many unlicensed series. However, we are a business that has to pay people to translate, edit, and publish books. If we do not believe a series will be profitable, that makes it really hard to justify trying to license it. Look at our previous announcements and the overall trends in genres and tropes; if we're licensing more of something, that means books we already have of those genres/tropes are selling for us. If we don't license much or any of something, that means similar books we already publish are not selling well.
Furthermore, if your concern is about a specific title, there could be any number of reasons we don't or can't license it - it could be published at a company we have no connection to; it could have a legal complication that makes it hard to license; the author or illustrator may refuse to agree to the license request (maybe they don't want their work to be translated period, or only want to work with specific companies, or just don't want to deal with the legal hassle, or don't like JNC's online streaming), etc. We don't reveal specific roadblocks publicly, but please understand that the process of licensing is not like the supermarket, where you just throw items you want into a basket and you're done.
Long story short, if you want to see more series like "X" licensed, what you can do is get more people to read and buy "X." It may be trite, but money is really the answer.
