@Roy-Nukia Got it. Thank you for telling me.

@Ruby-Eye linking to the Anime Planet entry would be more useful than a broken hotlinked image (it might have shown up when posting, but only because it was cached).

Alpha Manga is publishing the manga in their app as “A Veterinarian in Another World”.

@Lily-Garden I don't know all the old stuff that was licensed but Earl and Fairy that was brought up seemed like a bad choice for a test series as it didn't age well culturally or visibility wise.

Maria even today remains a presence in fully parodies like Yuri is My Job and repeatedly referenced by other series.

and yet... v6 just got announced. I can only assume it was to keep the license channel open with Shueisha

I have no idea what their stipulations are for them to drop a series. Diaries from what I understand was selling poorly also before the anime (I'm assuming it is through the roof now.). It might simply be as long as a series isn't selling in the red they keep translating it. It would take someone who actually works at j novel to explain it. Chances are they wouldn't share that kind of details though.

Anyways a rewatch of Maria first season just finished on reddit that was rather active with comments for pride month. Though sadly the post themself got bot brigaded down voted for each one.

Definitely upvote, it’s a great novel! I really enjoyed watching the anime back then.

Volume 2 was released on April 14, 2021.

Here's the illustration for volume 2

The manga for this series is so good! It'd be cool for the LN to get licensed too!

I changed the picture links into the actual images, mostly because I did not want a link to an aggregator site out in the open.

Edit, I also changed the link to the Bookwalker image link, and changed the volume cover to V1 of the series for the first suggestion

It would almost certainly never sell enough to justify it, nice as that would be.

This one is really interesting and compelling. I’m not much for tragedy, but this is on my list of exceptions. Fair warning, it can be straight up depressing, and current events are not being kind to those dealing with depression, so ymmv. I’d add it to my library but probably wouldn’t read it for a while.

@Torka said in Saigo ni Hitotsu Dake Onegaishite mo Yoroshii Desu ka?(May I Please Ask You Just One Last Thing?/Mad Dog Princess) (JNC Heart suggestion):

Short update - it’s getting an anime.

Normally I’d say it’s impossible due to AlphaPolis, but Hanashi got Tsukimichi so we might as well try

Um, saying this in a JNC licensing suggestion might be bad form, but given Hanashi succeeding with AlphaPolis, and the type of stories Hanashi has licensed already...
Might consider suggesting this to Hanashi as well, from an "I wanna read this thing" perspective.
Someone (reliable) needs to license it, and Hanashi has a foot in the door and is showing themselves to be reliable.

I wouldn't mind reading this myself, based upon the description.

Rooting for this one lol

As a physician this would be an instant buy, if anything just to see how a novelist tackles this moral dilemma.

I would also very like "Usotsuki" to be published, foremost because the character's dialogues are intersting and the protagonist's lies, to the reader and other characters, are, at least for me, both entertaining and unique.

Came to especially find if anyone had recommended Tokyo Crazy Paradise - I’ve bought this in Japanese (which I can’t read unfortunately) just to support it, and every time this manga comes up on blogs or message boards there’s always multiple people wishing for an English release
