      With J-novel putting out more and more audiobooks something that would be nice to have done is pdfs of the art included with them. Take for instance on audible I've Been Killing Slimes for 300 Years and Maxed Out My Level include pdfs with all the art from the corresponding volume. I don't know if other services also have the ability to include them but it would be great if they were.

      Will never give up hope on Marimite getting licensed!

        @heimdal7 So from what we've heard, I believe that almost all the audiobooks that are available were sublicensed from JNC, so JNC didn't commission them to be created, other companies came to JNC and said "we'd like to buy the rights to make an audiobook for series X". So in that respect the lack of additional art with the audiobook is because those companies either didn't see value in negotiating for the artwork, or they were unable to.

          @heimdal7 awww does this mean their app won't be available for alexa or other reading tools, since not all books have audio version?

            @LeiMiko You know audiobooks are read by humans, right? That's a completely different thing from using text-to-speech apps.
