  It was hinted at by listings, but they didn't confirm it in the previous digital announcements of that label's books.

  @shiny said in Premium E-Book Bonus Contents List!: @saskir said in Premium E-Book Bonus Contents List!: @sinnoaria Now we only need to get them to include the Bonus content on the series page... I wonder why no one even things about using the Plot part fr this. No need to change it dramatically. That would be simple but effective. sounds like a good idea to me, and I wouldn't think it would be too difficult

  It wasn't just Overlap, there was a very strong negative reaction from the general public towards the key visuals. Which is probably what prompted Overlap to push back.

  Alrighty I would say that’s enough on New Life + for the time being, the main point of the topic was to see if any new info was out about the series and as others of said there isn’t, so I will be locking this post down, in the future if there is any news the people on this forum will more then likely be the first to know...outside of people who work directly for JNC.

  Yes is that one, I have no idea why I wrote vampire. I liked it as I mentioned I found it light hearted even thou it has a lot of zombie action.

  @harmlessdave I thought it got better and by the end I found it a pleasant time waster. I haven’t ordered vol. 2 but I suspect I’ll get to it at some point, it was fun enough to stick with.

  @lex There's also some quirky humor in the form of pop culture references. I liked it, overall.

  @tusf I wish publishers gave at least a month notice because it's kind of hell to update the /r/LightNovels sidebar for new releases since I use a script get it all formatted right and compressed to fit the character limit. Cause if I have to update something for that very month, then it has to be updated in like 3 places. With a month in advance though, I'm pretty much guaranteed to catch it during the monthly updates at the beginning/end of each month. I see the same issue with J-NC's Rokujouma and Bookwalker's series too. I only learn when they're out when I'm doing the update for the month after they've already been released.

  So excited! I’ve read the first two volumes of “A Sisters” and have the third but will switch over to digital as I don’t hold onto any paper editions. It’s a very funny series. I hope whoever has the rights to Rokka open it up to digital too. Really want to read past vol 2

  @paulnamida let’s just hope they turn into actual light novels and that I-novel picks it up.

  Which novel do you think is overall more worth reading? 'A Wild Last Boss Appeared' or 'The New Gate'?

  @Claire-Lilly @Clarabelle I do like my female MCs, but not all ones with male MCs are terrible by any means. I find a big thing (though not the only thing) for quality is having a good gender-balanced cast, though.

  Would you buy LN raws, even if you can’t read the language?

  I won't spend money on a book I can't read. The only exception I can think of is the Onegai Twins fanbook I bought last year. That was, I believe, the only Onegai Series paperback that didn't get an English release. And it was mostly illustrations anyway.

  I don't think there's really any set answer for that. If the series is selling well, the publisher is going to print more book same as anywhere else. Amazon is going to order stock and they'll sell it as long as they have that stock. So how long a book or series is going to be available depends on how much stock amazon has, how fast people are buying that stock and whether the publisher is printing more books.
