      I don't think GA is really that against digital only.
      After all, It's publisher of Ryuuou no Oshigoto!

      I did say this was information from back when JNC was founded so almost 2 years ago.

              Speaking of publishers, does anyone see value to a list of all of those Kadokawa owned publishers? Most of us know the more common ones like Dengeki Bunko and Ascii Media Works, but there are a lot more of them.

                        @myskaros I think we could have a Table of Contents topic in the Licensing Suggestions. This way when we want to find a certain series or see if one has been suggested yet we can go there and see it there without the need to scroll down to find your list or even check each individual suggestion (I have been using the search function to check if anyone has suggested what I plan to suggest so there is that too). Maybe we can create one ourselves or there could be a more official one (probably someone like @Sam-Pinansky could make) but this is a good Idea to have. I also think having the English and Romanized Japanese titles would be good since people may know the English Title but not the Japanese Title and vice versa.

                          I actually ran into this myself for a series I submitted myself. XD

                            @aruseus493 yeah I try to put in both if I can find the Romanized Title, I put the English as the Header and the Romanized in Bold part of the post, Maybe I should change it to where both are in the title.

                              So what do you think of all the series being suggested in the licensing section of the Forums so far? Like has anything interesting popped up?

                              You people have good taste.

                                Have any of the new licensing request posts convinced you yet to pick something up?

                                Some have convinced me I made the right choices.

                                  For the record it's Shogakukan that Sam mentioned recently was against digital-only (or rather, anything digital).

                                    @stardf29 Shogakukan has been mentioned as a licensing issue for a while now nothing new, and again going back almost 2 years it has been said that Softbank also had issues with digital only.

                                    They might have let Bookwalker license 1 title (Bookwalker being an enormous powerhouse that Softbank already has long standing ties to in Japan) but as of yet JNC still hasn't climbed that wall.

                                      Posting a suggestion that locked topics be knocked off the sub-forum into some other, that way more unlicensed stuff floats to the top. I typically sort by most votes cause it's interesting but at some point, Sam will have licensed everything on the first page creating a weird locked sub-forum.

                                        I am wondering, would it be ok to make a post about a type of LN we would like to see? Like if I want to see more Shojo titles or if I want to see pure MMO LN I make a post about that where the discussion stays on that one point. I think this type of thing can work as there are so many LN that JNC can get titles based of these type of posts but people may not have suggested them yet.

                                            maybe a place where we can take polls to help decide what series everybody would want J-Novel to translate. It will give us a chance for us to hopefully have one of the novels we really wanted to get translated a chance. Plus it gives a chance to look a different types of light novels so we can try new light novels.
