      I bought a lot of credits not to game the system but to hedge against the pound falling against the dollar (which it subsequently did).

      Just a reminder that catchups will be changing next Monday! Better finish reading July's selection before they're gone!

      @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...

      Q

      @Ingraman said in Anime Boston 2022:

      @myskaros said in Anime Boston 2022:

      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.

      @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.

      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

      @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.

      @weasalopes said in J-Novel Club Announces New Business Partnership with Kadokawa and Bookwalker:

      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.
