        I was thinking JNC could license "Violet Evergarden"

        the anime has already ended, plus there's significant changes between the LN and the anime.

        Plus, its under Kyoto Animation's LN label, and it's only two volumes (so far?).

          Was browsing around and this caught my attention.
          alt text
          Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear
          Yuna, a 15-year-old girl, started playing the world's first VRMMO. She has earned billions of yen in stocks, and confines herself in her house playing the game without going to school. Today, a major update has arrived and she obtained a non-transferable rare bear outfit. But the equipment is so embarrassing that she can't wear it even in the game. Furthermore, when she answers the survey regarding the new update and relaunches the game, she appears in and unknown forest in the bear outfit. Where is this? Email from God? A different world? If she wears the bear outfit she's a cheat, if she takes it off she's a normal girl. Her adventure starts just like that. Yuna began doing whatever she wanted.

          Sounds like fun!

            Here are some, I think they are all in the same universe or something like that (all I know about these series is basically same author).

            Edit: I do not really expect that last one, I decided to read a bit of the manga since there was one and it probably will not happen.

                @drone205 yeah, Kaifuku will probably never get licensed. It's pretty much porn, hardcore porn at that, and Volume 1 can even be considered tame, Volume 3-4 have outright snuff... so yeah, it probably won't be licensed. But I can confirm that Kaifuku Jutsushi and Cheat Majutsu are indeed part of the same world. The MC in Kaifuku makes some remarks about an ancient hero (Cheat Majutsu's MC) who discovered that eating magic beasts meat lets you raise your stats, and from what I've read in animesuki seems like all his series' are set in the same world.

                  Just a small development in a series I want.

                  Remake Our Life (Time travel from the age of 28 back to when they were 18 to relive more fun times).

                  This one is MF Bunko / Kadokawa, so probably zero chance we get it, and even slim odds from Yen (we don't even have Classroom of the Elite, and that has an anime).

                  Anyways, its upcoming release is volume 4. What's notable is that, assuming this is a triangle light novel, they may have decided the "winner" since

                    @paulnamida Got to agree with that. Then again JNC did license "How Not To Summon A Demon Lord", which is borderline(ish) hentai...

                      @xftg123 yeah, but Demon Lord is just borderline, I don't think we get anything more graphic than the fingering scene. Kaifuku's LN version is supposedly even raunchier than the WN version. The author promoted it as containing "material that couldn't be posted in Narou" after all. And Narou allowed cannibalism snuff on vol. 3... I'm almost afraid to know what were the added scenes.

                        How about Bodacious space pirates? The Hyperspace Abyss special is translated in English, but i cant find the original 12 volumes anywhere in English?

                          How about these? I first got into the manga for all three of them and I enjoy them quite a bit.

                              @deemerald none of those are legally licensed, for people who only read official translation they have no way to read them in English.

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

                                @rahul-balaggan The New gate is done by an official translater, but illegally. So that gains a pass maybe?

                                  @deemerald some may say it does, I for one say it doesn’t. Nothing against that translator but I still won’t read unless I can legally pay for it in a way that the author sees residuals.

                                    @rahul-balaggan So you mean like Slime Tensei, where they legally got premission from the author to translate the webnovel?

                                      @deemerald that Yen licensed the LN version and released it that has become a mute point.

                                          @deemerald Considering said translator is charging for early access to chapters, I hope he gets shut down for that scum-behavior. Would much prefer it to be licensed.

                                            @aruseus493 hmm. Never knew that. Normally i follow 20 different things at the same time and just switch between them constantly, not really minding whether something comes out early or late
