      It would be nice to see a translation of Amagi Brilliant Park. :)

        I'd like to see Akira's (日日日) series

        • Mushi to Medama (one of my favorite LNs ever)
        • Sasami-san@Ganbaranai

        And...

          I'm not sure how likely it is but if you could ever license some leftover Dengeki Bunko titles like Toradora, The Pet Girl of Sakurasou, and Shakugan no Shana that'd be awesome.

          Also, since you've already published some lesser-known LNs, I'd like to suggest Shomin Sample (Ichijinsha) and Shimoneta (Shogakukan). I enjoyed the anime adaptations of both.

            I'm echoing others more than anything but I would love to see The Pet Girl of Sakurasou and Hai to Gensou no Grimgar. Toradora would be pretty cool as well but I feel like with the manga and anime I've had my fill of that series overall.

              My only request would be for my favourite series that always seems to be forgotten: Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko, which was written by Hitoma Irumi, illustrated by Buriki, and published by Dengeki Bunko. The series is complete at 8 volumes, so not overly long. The anime was released in North America by NISA as Ground Control to Psychoelectric Girl. If you could get this title I would die a happy man.

                I'd love to see all five books of Hajime Kanzaka's Lost Universe done. The anime was good, but I hear the books are even better.

                "Hey, Mr. "Everything was Better in the 90's"! Your internet speed is so slow that it took you 8 hours to watch 60 Minutes!"

                You're so old, you KNEW Shakespeare.

                I can put M&M's in alphabetical order without color coding.

                  @Melicans There are a lot of series from those seasons 5 years ago or so, C3, kuro usagi, dantalian... that were based off light novels that people seem to have forgotten. Denpa Onna seems to be the one people remember the most, though.

                      @Sam-Pinansky Ben-to and Kamisama no Memo-cho are two other good ones that largely disappeared after they aired (okay, Ben-to isn't so much good as enjoyably ridiculous, but still).

                      In general, I'd like to see non-SF series -- mysteries, romcoms, straight up melodramas. Besides Ben-to, Kamimemo and the aforementioned Toradora and Sakurasou, there's Romeo Tanaka's Aura and Mariko Shimizu's Uso series

                        Well for requests I have plenty. A couple though:

                        Tokyo Ravens
                        Campione
                        Rakudai Kishi no Cavalry
                        Nejimaki Seirei Senki: Tenkyou no Alderamin

                          I second all the people who have requested Grimgar.

                            I would love it if you were to pick up Ero Manga Sensei. Since it's from the creator or Oreimo it already has a bit of a fanbase and seeing how an Anime is in production, expect it to blow up in terms of popularity once that comes out.

                              I also would love to see The Pet Girl of Sakurasou and Hai to Gensou no Grimgar translated. I look forward to your releases and hope you have great success!

                                @Sam-Pinansky said in Novel pick-up requests:

                                I also want Bibliotheca Mystica de Dantalian.

                                  WIll echo in my support for Kokoro Connect, The Pet Girl of Sakurasou and Toradora.

                                  Also, though not actually an LN, the books I would most want to see translated next would be the Classic Literature Club (Koten-bu) series of which the anime Hyouka was adapted from.

                                      My request is not for a specific light novel but rather a publisher. Please develop a relationship with Alphapolis. They've had so many web manga adaptations of their works in the last couple years, they've really intrigued a lot of people.
                                      And me personally, I'd also love to see some novels from their imprint for girls, Regina.

                                        How about A Corpse is Buried Beneath Sakurako's Feet?

                                            @Solistia I've tried to get in contact with them but they don't actually have any international sales people... Now that we've launched I might have more luck getting them interested.
