      @Sam-Pinansky hearing you say that about Junrui has made my day, after having the baka-tsuki page bookmarked and monthly checking for activity, just knowing you want to translate it fills me with hope. :)

        @Rahul-Balaggan does that one have an anime adaptation? Cause I remember seeing an anime with that name, was pretty slow paced but I rocked with it. I would love to read the LN.

          @Hyferzftw yes it does it's on crunchyroll right now.

          I was just watching some random anime to kill time and re-watched episode 1 and decided to put the LN suggestion here.

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

            Would love it if J-Novel could license these novels:

            Upstart Pastry Chef ~Territory Management of a Genius Pâtisserie~
            Tsuki ga Michibiku Isekai Douchuu
            Netooku Otoko no Tanoshii Isekai Boueki
            Isekai Ryouridou
            Cook of the Mercenary Corp
            I’m a NEET but When I Went to Hello Work I Got Taken to Another World
            The Other World Dining Hall
            Goshujin-sama wa Yamaneko-Hime

            They are all really good reads.

                  I'd like to request Mahoutsukai to Boku by Ao Jyumonji. Same author as Grimgar and also published by Overlap. Only one volume out so far but looks interesting.

                      My favorite choices would be GATE; Hagure Yuusha no Aesthetica; Alderamin; Rakudai; and Campione. Especially GATE.

                        Since I've just stumbled upon the opening of the anime again.
                        Is Katanagatari already licensed? If not, please pick it up?

                          Also if Seiken Tsukai no World Break is here it will be nice. Other thing is whatever on the front page on HJ Bunko page right now like Hyakuren no Haou to Seiyaku no Valkyria.

                            @NeoAnkara Yep, I mention Kou 1 Desu ga Isekai de Joushu Hajimemashita before too, it is HJ so it should be possible. But it will be awesome to see Hagure no Yuusha!
                            Btw, welcome to J-Novel, we did write before on AS Rokujouma forum.

                              @sparhawk6 Just get the chance to become member. It's hard if you don't have credit card needing to use roundabout way.

                              Anyway I'm enjoying Kou 1 manga and it look like it will stay comfy series so it will be great if I can read the LN too.

                                I would really like to see some old LN that are out of print or were dropped by the publishers if possible (Like Aria the scarlet ammo). I would also like books that are not hyped or mainstreamed (since Yen press has already been doing that) and it will give variety and not just stories we have already seen as anime. I also think translating the Chinese LN stories like New Gate would be a great idea.

                                    I know this is not actually a light novel and not from the publishers that JNC has contract with, but I've read through 4 volumes of the manga adaption of Kyokou Suiri in just one night. And I love every single moment in it. So I hope one day this will get some love and published in English.

                                    For anyone curious, Kodansha has published 4 out of 7 volumes manga in English here

                                      New Gate is a Japanese light novel not a Chinese.

                                        At the time of writing the series in the pickup bit at the bottom of the page are:
                                        Skill-kurai no Eiyuutan
                                        Maou no Ore ga Dorei Elf wo Yome ni Shitanda ga, Dou Medereba Ii?
                                        Saikyou Mahoushi no Inton Keikaku
                                        Rokujouma no Shinryakusha!? (already on here)

                                        Are these the series you were referring to or have they changed them in the meanwhile?

                                          @kuuderes_shadow Well I'm not well informed for a series that not have been translated yet but that's pretty much it. The only one I have vague idea is Valkyria in which from what I know heading in a good direction. The other is one that have red haired heroine in which I have heard somewhere before.

                                          Well I'm also watch some HJ Bunko promotional video but cannot really pinpoint at what the series is as I think it show up at the front page on HJ Bunko site too.

                                            I really only commented to establish what series you were actually suggesting. Perhaps you could link to the series page on the HJ Bunko website? Or even to the video in question.

                                            Was http://hobbyjapan.co.jp/hjbunko/series/176/ the one you meant? It was in the latest HJ Bunko Housoubu video and is the only series in the pickup section with a red-haired girl on the cover.
