@Smoochie you might find this thread useful https://forums.j-novel.club/topic/534/expiring-volumes-light-novels/401
It lists which volumes are going to expire each month and lets you schedule what to prioritize reading. Keep in mind it's manually updated so there might be errors but usually they are corrected as soon as someone notices.

@Jon-Mitchell the data is already publicly available both in the release calendar and in each series page on the website so there is no problem on that front.

@Kroko23 We have intentionally delisted the series to consolidate their management under the same distributor that manages most of the rest of our library, PublishDrive. The entire series will be back up for sale within 2 weeks on Amazon!

@noobping oh this would be nice! I read so many books and with creative time of writing/translating quite a few times promising series get buried because I’d forgotten about them. It’s even hard to parse my purchased j-novel library there’s enough in there.

Maybe a separate bookmark page with each series level having a heart or something so it would show up on the user bookmark page as shortcuts. J-novel could even use that as a metric if the we’re deciding to continue publishing further translations of a series by interest alone. I know there’s a few series that were stopped translating due to perceived lack of interest that I came by after the fact that since they would be an unfinished series I didn’t pick up that I would have otherwise. ε=ε=ε=ε=ε=ε=┌( ￣◇￣)┘

@doceirias They aren‘t blood-related. That would be really sick otherwise.

Would love seeing this licensed. The anime is a young classic. It would fit in good with today readers/viewers as it is a whimsical fantasy and fmc. A lot of series and anime are coming out that is similar types like this for instance Wondering Witch for just one off the top of my head.

The anime is still licensed.

For a moment I thought JNC decided to rescue the LN, but it's nice to see it's back being published in the west.

@Lex I'd say harem-ish? I haven't gone too deep in the WN translation on another site but, it seems like it's less dense herbivore and more too focused on revenge.

I so wish this would get a proper licensed release, anime was peak and there is so much more to the story, one can pray 🙏

@Phredis

Hi, it was also reported in our Discord Server. That escalated the issue to the manga team.

@GeorgeMTO That's a bummer, I'm a physical media guy and will read things digitally if that's the only way, (out of prints as an example) but if I have to wait for a physical copy then that's a small price to pay :-)
