      So I looked up the Japanese publisher and it seems it's Hifumi Shobo. According to the English Licenses sorted by JP Publisher thread there's been only one English license from them, SCP Foundation: Iris Through the Looking-Glass from Seven Seas Entertainment.

      Anyone know anything about this publisher and how hard it likely is to license stuff from them?

        @yumenokage Like I said a few posts up, SCP Fondation seems to be the first license from them, and it was only about a month or two ago. I think they're just new, as far as LNs go, so there aren't any licensors that have any established connection with them (besides SSE, that is…)

            yeah, fingers crossed that this gets picked up, preferably by JNC. Now every time we get announcements of a new batch of licenses I'm hoping for this one.

                Only problem is I don’t think any English licensor has been able to get deal with this publisher, let alone JNC.

                  @legitpancake Seven Seas got one from them. And since the JP publisher is small if I'm not mistaken, it might be more of a matter of English publishers not really trying to get stuff from them.

                          It‘s a really interesting and exiting novel. It would be nice, if it gets licensed!

                              Does this novel has a chance to get licensed?

                                Every LN has a chance to be licensed.

                                This particular LN’s chance is probably closer to 0% then 100% only because no one has previously licensed form the JP pubsliher Hifumi Shobo

                                I am like 95% sure no one has licensed anything from them, if any company has someone will correct me shortly.

                                Even though 7S got one I will still say this title is closer to 0 then 100

                                Sorry but J-Novel Club does not publicly comment on any potential licensing decision or acquisitions.

                                    Seven Seas has a reader survey every month, keep submitting this light novel as suggestion, maybe one day it will be picked up.

                                            The website that is hosting English translation of the web novel got a face lift and now we have a monthly view counter for death mage that sits at nearly 4 million views. That is four million views per month... What else do you need to know? Go and try licensing it!
