Provided you go in with low expectations of it ever happening, sure.

Why would I have anything else? Lol.

As for sales, given that Seven Seas licensed Yabuki's other series, Darling in the Franxx, and even nabbed the Ayakashi Triangle license from VIZ, it's probably safe to say that To Love Ru & To Love Ru Darkness didnt sell poorly. Tho yes, they presumably they didnt sell well enough to justify immediately licensing the light novels.

why would JNC want it?

Because I want to buy it and read it! Because other people want to buy it and read it! Lol.

In that case, Seven Seas would be much more likely to get these novels instead of JNC anyway...

Again, there's literally no harm in asking JNC to get it, so I dont see your point. I'm not claiming it's likely to happen.

Adding a few extra names to this one since I thought it didn’t have a post due to it not appearing in the search:

Hokuo Kizoku to Moukinzuma no Yukiguni Karigurashi
北欧貴族と猛禽妻の雪国狩り暮らし

LN is completed with four volumes, manga is still ongoing but might be there soon.

I'd personally prefer Mayoi Neko Overrun! over this one. That one has been in my sights ever since Yabuki did the manga adaptation which lasted only like 2-3 volumes, it was just hillarious, and the anime adaptation captured very well its zanninnes.

PapaKiki would be my second choice, even though the ending was spoiled by the anime.

Hatena Illusion OTOH, any interest I had in it was obliterated by the anime, that might be an adaptation issue so I would give it the benefit of the doubt, but yeah, I'd definitely take any of the other 2 series before Hatena.

@theredjet Is Ch. 21 of the manga the end of LN Vol. 1? Is it 1:1? Or did the manga go past the light novel? Or did the manga not even completely adapt LN Vol. 1?

it would;d be nice to read that one

The manga for this is good. Wonder how much more detail is in the light novels. Also interested in how much of the web novel the light novel has adapted. Would be cool to get a license.

@sean-o-hara

I like the solving mysteries without leaving the apartment idea.

@rawon

In the series itself, his parents are in hiding for the time being while they try to escape the massive debt they’re in.

If this got license, the top 10 of 2010s are completed. Miracles.

Randomly read the manga somewhere. This is interesting an interesting romcom, hoping again for a miracle.

Originally published in 2004-2005, reissued in 2020; in the meantime, the publisher changed its name slightly, and the re-issued series has a slightly different name ("New Edition" is appended to the titles for each volume), but the text and illustrations are unchanged per the publisher's page for the Author's works.

JNC could use a smutty license considering how they're caught up with How NOT to Summon a Demon Lord.

Just another vote for this series. The manga is entertaining and it's a different kind of OP protag where the story includes a lot of references to his first summoning.
