Novel pick-up requests

yoshimin

I want Kamigoroshi no Eiyuu to Nanatsu no Seiyaku to be picked up.

Question: If It's for My Daughter, I'd Even Defeat a Demon Lord! is this a lolicon's story? I hope not.

Cynigami

@yoshimin

Are you are asking if the main character is a lolicon? Then absolutely not. But I also have to warn you:

But I am really glad, that one of my guesses hit the right spot heh. Can't wait for other 3 LN licenses

Requesting another title - "Wortenia Senki" from HJ. The manga skips a lot and the WN translations are just atrocious...

The story has a lot of potential. It has a MC that is neither a cold-blooded killer nor a pussy that runs away from fight / hides his powers. He is not killing just for the sake of killing, he is killing people because he needs to. Only 6 chapter into the manga and I already love the guy.

異世界迷宮の最深部を目指そう

Aiming for the Deepest Part of a Different World's Labyrinth.

Bryan

Has anyone licensed Zero kara Hajimeru Mahou no Sho yet? Or anyone brought it up?

Rahul Balaggan

@Bryan no one has licensed it yet...it's from Dengeki Bunko...which means ASCII Media Works...which means Kadokawa....which means Yen Press probably has first and last dibs (for now at least)

If they don't license it at AX 2017 in July that means they probably won't license it ever.

Bryan

@Rahul-Balaggan :( I'm liking the anime so far... Hope we get it!

Rahul Balaggan

@Bryan agreed, only watched up till episode 3 but that scene in the clothing store 10/10

And that scene at the end back in the room in the morning 11/10

Bryan

@Rahul-Balaggan Latest episode has some nice parts too, and the action is picking up

Requesting Isekai Mahou wa Okureteru! if it's possible.

I would like to request とある飛空士への追憶 "Recollections for a Certain Pilot" by Koroku Inumura. This light novel and the subsequent sequel/spinoff light novels are really popular in Japan, even made it to the Amazon.jp light novel best seller list. It has been adapted into a feature anime film titled The Princess and The Pilot in 2011 and an anime addaption for the spinoff series.

I would also recommend the Black Lagoon spinoff light novels. The Anime and manga series of Black Lagoon are popular in both Japan and the US, but the light novel spin offs have never been published in english, so translating them could attract the manga/anime fans to light novels.

@Bryan I second that one!!

Just came across the manga adaptation for a much older Isekai series. I realize it's impossible for the LN to get licensed pretty much, but I'd like to at least put it out there.

A-kun (17) no Sensou
Ran from 2001 to 2006 with a total of 9 volumes. Not sure if it had a proper conclusion or was cancelled. The manga apparently only had two volumes. (Of which only 5 chapters are scanlated.)

It's about a small chubby MC (Like Accel World) getting sent to another world where the Demons are the good guys and they want him to be the next Demon King and to teach them warfare.

Requesting Kino's Journey / Kino no Tabi.
I know it's a Kadokawa title, but I'm requesting it nonetheless. Maybe one day it will get picked up by either you guys or YP. The new anime adaptation announcement gave me a lot of hope.

Other requests:
Kadokawa:
Zero kara Hajimeru Mahou no Sho
Vamp!

Some other publishers I'm not sure of:
The New Gate (I randomly picked up the manga and it's kind of decent)
Amagi Brilliant Park!
Slayers
Full Metal Panic!

I really admire the way you entered the market, I'm not really the biggest LN reader out there, but I do have some select titles I enjoy here and there. I mostly care about light novels after watching their anime adaptations.

Cole Seeley

@kino I would also like to see the new gate.

Omoikane

I'd love to see official translations of:
Red Data Girl
Kurei-nai
The Yuuki Yuuna novels (Current ones are Washio Sumi and Nogi Wakaba)

Sam Pinansky

@Omoikane I'm glad someone remembers kure nai! I loved that anime.
