        I've probably posted about it I'm sure, but not obsessively so definitely (there may have been something that popped up in the news about it). It's not one I could tell you the name of offhand, so definitely not one I'm following too closely, but I had seen it.

        The art looks good. Somebody just bumped the thread for it here to say it got picked up too (maybe where you saw it?). =)

          Probably Fujimi was pushing it at some point (like Mom one before), so started to see a lot of tweets about it...
          (I know we had a thread for it too, I was talking about how it covered my Twitter TL once)

          Well, hint: you can't be disappointed if you're not expecting anything lol

            I didn't expect anything out of this random batch but actually got something! Finally. Will definitely give Kimi to Boku no Saigo no Senjou a try, have been waiting for this one. Though it's a pity that yet another seemingly decent novel goes not to JNC so the wait is going to be endless.

              Mature Purple from the LN podcast says he called that one so you may have seen it from him on Twitter.

              I gotta relisten to that podcast we did with our hopes for next year. Things are looking up for a lot of their hopes between that and Sword Dad.

                      Oh! Combatants are fine too. Maybe the more random announcements seem, the better they gonna be?

                          Maybe, I should start to not expect anything less, the effects were instantaneous.
                          We can, objectively, say this batch was better than the previous one, right?

                          & @Hyperion managed to get smth off his last on the same day he wrote it...talk about luck lol

                            What was the last batch?

                            If it's the licensing event that had 6 LN licenses, that had 4 I really, really want.

                                Finally something from Sazane. I love his work since Encore and Eden. Been waiting for Encore but Kimisen is not a bad choice at all.

                                  Oh, this is better than that for me.

                                  Though I don't really know enough about the Alchemist one to say it's not a good one to have, I just hadn't even heard of it.

                                    It was a really new title so we had no info about it.
                                    But, at least, in terms of crossing stuff off our wishlist, this one managed to help us with that.

                                        The War End the World/Raises the World LN & manga, Reborn as a Polar Bear manga and THE GENIUS PRINCE’S GUIDE TO RAISING A NATION OUT OF DEBT (HEY, HOW ABOUT TREASON?) are all really good titles. I can't wait to read them.

                                          Good haul, but damn I wish the horror one was a LN and the Polar Bear wasn’t the manga... Still lots to enjoy so I must not complain.

                                            So Sam mentioned on Discord that the unconfirmed LN has now been confirmed! Translation hasn't started on it and there's no official hint for it on the announcements page (though he mentioned that it's not anything that's been particularly requested, so probably best to not make expectations too high)... At any rate, though, it's nice to see that last LN confirmed.
