      @labellearabesque It just means don't get your hopes up. Things might change over time, such as when we got Kadokawa books for the first time, but AP's situation is quite different.

      Whoever said nothing's impossible never tried slamming a revolving door.

        @myskaros Okay, thanks for getting my hopes up again with your words.😄 But I think I will concentrate on different novels for now. I think the chances are a lot higher for them getting licensed than this one.

                @Zing The head does indeed look a lot like Vaal Hazak's, the wings look different tho.

                    One of the best gaming novels I‘ve ever read. I really hope J-Novel Club will license it.

                      Another vote in favor of J-Novel picking up the LN!

                        JNC should totally pick this light novel up!

                          After watching the first couple episodes. I hope the LN can be picked up by JNC.

                          Looking to the next few years of Ascendance of a Bookworm.

                            I still hope JNC will pick this up. Reason number one would be that this series is quite long (up to 22 volumes now) and I definitely wouldn’t buy physical copies of it, so ebooks are the only option for me. Reason number two is that it‘s quite the good novel, so I definitely want to keep the ebooks, which other publishers unfortunately don‘t offer and JNC sells them DRM free.
                            Anyway, it would be truly a shame if a publisher other than JNC (especially One Peace Books, that would be my biggest worry, urgh) would license this. Then I would only have the choice to begrudgingly accept it or wait for JNC Nina to license it on German (what I also hope for She Professed Herself Pupil of the Wiseman).

                            Well, it remains to be seen whether Alphapolis will give out light novel licenses to English publishers at all.

                              Hanashi has already proven they will.

                                @Geezer-Weasalopes Ah, okay. I didn‘t know. And it looks like they offer DRM free ebooks too. Interesting.

                                Hopefully JNC will get to license from them soon too.

                                  The chances are probably low, but I‘m upvoting just in case.

                                    Recently I got hooked on the anime, so of course I would like to read the novel too!

                                      It‘s one of the novels about a game world I want to read the most! Hopefully JNC will be able to license it and if not, Hanachi Media.

                                        @myskaros any chance for someone to reach back out about licensing this LN?

                                          I would also love to read an official English translation. The novel is great! Also, it would be great to have this in print as well.

                                            I'd also love to get this series in physical media. I can purchased the Manga in print, but the LN is still elusive.
