@myskaros was just checking the forums to see what was up. Thanks for the advanced warning even I was blind to it until now 😂

Hope everyone at the convention has time to enjoy it while they are there and it's not all fun-filled work.

gosh, if I didn't need a reason to buy premiums from J-Novel site before now...
I know not all 'missing' titles are JNC's but, I just don't see a compelling reason to buy from bezos when there is an alternative that is both cheaper and better. now we just need a wiki /article /FAQ on how to use calibre and sideload JNC premiums to Kindle hardware (or Ipad) for those folks that aren't already doing that...

Here are our new licenses from Anime Boston!

... but can we place a limit on main characters who are dressed all in black? ...

And on characters named Aisha or any abbreviation of it. I start mixing them up. Is that the most beloved name of Japanese authors or what? (this is not just JNC titles, but across all English light novel releases. There are so many I get confused).

I read both parts of 4 of the new novels, they seem promising. Let's see where it goes from here :)

Had fun learning the strange sequence of inputs to enable developer mode on an Android device to figure this one out...

Not sure if this would help at all for ease of future css locating, but you could always open the forum in a normal desktop browser and use the mobile layout in the developer tools to simulate a mobile browser if you know what width and height you want to use.

This contest is over, and you can check out the winning entries on Twitter!

@xdrfiredogx Haha indeed, it's the perfect descriptor for the likes of Epic Movie or Meet the Spartans.

To parody isekai you have to be an isekai of course so I can't guarantee it'll be for you. That's the beauty of the catchups of course though. I have several series I'm now purchasing premiums for that I wouldn't even have considered buying if they were from another publisher. I'd say the first 4 or 5 parts of volume 1 would give anyone a pretty clear idea whether it's to their tastes or not.

@bfennema Nothing announced, someone asked in the discord on Friday though

myskaros: We're working on it, but we aren't able to start streaming it yet.
eMPTy: Unfortunately, the only answer we can give is when everything's in place for it to happen

You've got about a week and a half to finish reading April's catchups! May catchups will be coming on Monday, May 2, around 10 AM PDT/1700 UTC!

@jpwong
Thanks! Yes, my app is indeed new version, updated Dec 5.

@georgemto same for by the grace of god, Seirei Gensouki and the other 2 seasons of bookworm ? The first one being the light novel and the 2nd season being the manga. They usually started right before or right after the new season. So either April or May. I buy them anyways as in my opinion bookworm is easily the best light novel period.

@harin-sadu-zvitmak

Hello,

including not saying that negotiations failed, if they failed.

I highly doubt negotiations would ever fail. It might be tricky and hard but would not fail. Especially since JNC already licensed the first few books.

My basis for this is the fact that Sol Press was able to grab some good titles even though the company was failing and did not have a good track record. They were even able to release more than just 1 volume of a series.

It's doubtful they would fail in negotiations for additional volumes, but that doesn't mean it's impossible.
Thus, I include that since they don't report failed negotiations.
If we never hear of an additional volume in a series even though it had been released umpteen bazillion years ago in Japan, negotiations failed.
So far that hasn't happened.

But if the chappie is so out of the loop to ask when the next volume will be ready days after it is released in Japan, one is comprehensive in covering all the reasons they might not hear anything concerning a release date for some time, if ever.

I wholeheartedly recommend Slightly Older Girlfriend.

Sorry for the late reminder, but catchups will be changing on Tuesday, February 1, around 11 AM PST / 2 PM EST / 1900 UTC! One day it'll all be automatic, but until that amazing future arrives, you'll have to continue dealing with manual switchovers that are affected by meetings and vacation and forgetfulness and all that jazz ;o

I'd been dubious about A Very Fairy Apartment, but a couple of days ago I said to myself, I said, "Hey. It's free just now."

What a lie that was.
It's only "free" if you don't go out afterwards and purchase the whole series...

I think my dubiosity was a result of being a major fan of Rokujouma, and somehow having a block on the idea that there could be other Worthy Works with a bunch of goofballs invading someone's apartment.
Dunno.
Whatever my concern had been, it was totally bogus.

A Very Fairy Apartment is very silly, and very well done.

Sorry for the late reminder, but catchups will be changing on Wednesday around 1000 PST/1800 UTC, so finish reading your picks before then!

@sam-pinansky That is disappointing :( At least my credit limit I guess gets to be happy.
