This description reminds me somewhat of the description of the 1999 Isekai Anime Now and Then, Here and There. Unfortunately, I've never watched it, as it went out of print with ADV Films' bankruptcy.

Let's not have this thread devolve into a "Let's guess what actually has happened to Sol Press" discussion.

Reasoned speculation has kind of reached its end here, without any new information there is nothing more that could be said.

Please try and keep it to discussing new information/statements, or about how their stopping affects the works involved that they publish.

Found the site for the WN, and it looks like it's still updating regularly. So maybe they're just waiting for the WN to get so far ahead before the next volume of the LN. Also looks like they're restructuring it a bit from the WN, so that probably takes some time.

@someoldguy I read about half of this so far, based on your recommendation, and I'm really enjoying it. The main character has amazing analytical skills (I'm pretty sure here that her analytics are a standalone ability that goes beyond her Saint power to read someone's health status, because she can list off all the cues that clued her in on something when people pester her about how she knew - "Your step is just a bit longer on your right leg, and you tend to put your weight on your right foot when standing, yet you're a highly trained knight who should have perfect posture, which makes that unusual. That's how I figured out that your left leg was injured." - and figuring out monsters' attack patterns by observing how they fight so she can take advantage of the openings they leave, etc)

But she reads the room and interprets what others say about as well as Bakarina (i.e. she can't)

This confuses the hell out of her superiors in the knight brigade on the order of "how can someone so stupid be so smart" and vice versa, which leads to great comedy.

I like these (long) series:

Overlord, 13 books.
I think this series just keeps getting better.

Lazy Dungeon Master.
Funny series, I never get bored with it.

Campfire cooking in another world, 10 books.
This series is consistently funny. Book 10 is really nice, too.

Death March, 14 books.
Nice series, but there are too many childish characters in the books and that's getting worse with each new book.

Konosuba, 14 books.
The last few books aren't that great, I think, but up to book 10 or so it's funny. The spin-off Konosuba: Explosion with 3 books is also funny.

Skeleton knight in another world.
Epic story about a (skeleton) knight fighting horrible nation-scale evil in another world, using large-scale over-the-top magic.

So I'm a spider so what, 12 books.
I like this series, but it's very confusing to read because the timelines are so messed up that it's actually annoying. I like the over-the-top action in this series so that makes it worth it. You can just ignore the messed up timelines. In book 10 or 11 there's a lot of side-stories that are so different from the main story that it's like a completely different book. I don't like it. The last book 12 also has a lot of different stories but this time it's done well, because they're back to point for the main story and I enjoyed those. The only thing I don't like is, that the series gives many hints about the ending. I think that's just frustrating as a reader, because every time I think it's the final book and then it isn't ! The end is not near.

Reincarnated as a slime, 11 books.
Nice series about a city/nation-building reincarnation with over-the-top powers. It gets quite absurd in the last few books, though... what with a dragon-powered-dungeon and all... I'm not sure where this series is heading to be honest.

@legitpancake Hanashi might be a a new established Kadokawa partner.

Newly added title (Seven Seas):
Wait For Me Yesterday

@alanoud It was stated in the story that Blue Hair is an indication of strong mana, it was mentioned during some of Ferdinands backstory
considering that Mynes dad has blue hair tho this seems like just a folk tale the Nobles tell

Awwwww, I feel cheated! I wanted to read about Rio getting the axe. XD

@heimdal7 nearly 10 years ago is positively ancient compared to most popular LN series in English.

I really hope we get the third one too. This was one of the first series I read on this site and I really enjoyed it!

Updated with October 2021 catchups. 😺

We have the usual manga for the first time on catchup: The Faraway Paladin. Also 3 out of 6 series are complete, 1 is caught up to Japan and the last one has the currently latest volume available being translated.

@amakaze IIRC Satou occasionally jabbed at her age in regards to some of the older, more obscure references she's made. Also, there was the time when she mentioned her school lunches having whale meat, which I believe was a bit before Satou's time.

anyway my i have a vague idea that the story may be going towards a devine accendance path simply because of mynes repeating pattern of losing and gaining families... adoption into a pantheon as a lesser assisting godess of literature seams pretty logical...

Hmm... Forget the paper version of the story, I just need a Maomao plushie.

Err... Maomao (the kitten) not Maomao (the young woman) just to be clear here...
