Yoshino Takumi's novel "Rain"

I'd definitely buy translations for

Izure Shinwa no Ragnarok
Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko
Kou-1 desu ga Isekai de Joushu Hajimemashita
Ryuugajou Nanana no Maizoukin

Been praying for ages for these series to get any sort of translation, and since you've made true a few of my wishes already (NeeChuu and Little Apocalypse) I'm keeping my hopes up

@paulnamida you mentioned Ryuugajou!! KISS ME! :D 😂😂

Shinberoy

How about
Kusuriya no Hitorigoto
? It sounds really great and I would love to see the LN <3

Kusuriya no Hitorigoto

I second this request. The first chapter of the manga adaptation is really good at making me want to read the Light Novel.

I super want Asobi ni Iku yo!

santi Brathana

@Aruseus493 Also seconded.

This (Koushaku Reijou no Tashinami) and The Story of Saiunkoku (Saiunkoku Monogatari) are the two stories I want to see official English releases for the most! Unfortunately they're both published by Kadokawa and they're both shoujo light novel series so the odds are very poor. :cry: I'm a sucker for stories that delve into fantasy politics, economics and court drama though and I'd buy anything along those lines - I really enjoy Realist Hero, for instance.

Requesting The New Gate since the fan-translator has apparently been running a timed pay-wall for chapters which honestly is among the worst things you could do. :-\

Crunchyroll is getting an anime called Knight's and Magic which is based on novels?

That'd be cool to get. Some mecha in it I think.

Bakaneko

Ookami-san to Shichinin no Nakama-tachi. I loved the anime and have always wanted to follow the story to its end. It's not Isekai or harem, so it always gets overlooked. I would buy the entire series without question.

I forget if we have a thread for novels acquired by other pubs. Hearing there's been announcements at Anime Expo for a few things.

Noteworthy:

Elves and a Pizza Parlor
Vending Machine Reincarnation?
Possibly Goblin Slayer spin-off stuff.

Edit: Yen Press Periscope is up on their Twitter.

@Terrence There were 5 licenses. Posted them on /r/lightnovels. You're missing the little sister fetish one, and Slime Slayer.

ImIlyaz

@Aruseus493 I've been looking around, but I can't seem to find Yen Press' new licenses, any help? And will more licenses be announced or is that it for now?

ANN News Post

Goblin Slayer Year One - Prequel to Goblin Slayer focusing on his first year as an adventurer supposedly. (Take with grain of salt cause I don't think the panelists even understood what Goblin Slayer was about since they thought he was low ranked.)
Reborn as a Vending Machine, Now I Wander the Dungeon - Guy reincarnates as a vending machine in another world and can apparently only communicate with generic vending machine automated phrases. - MAL & LNDB
The Hero and His Elf Bride Open a Pizza Parlor - Isekai series where MC opens up a Pizza Parlor apparently. I don't know much about it. - MAL
I've Been Killing Slimes for 300 Years - Female MC dies of overworking and takes life easy in another world as an immortal witch. For 300 years, she killed slimes casually and accidentally became max level. - MAL
A Sister's All You Need - Romcom(?) series about a Light Novel author with a huge little sister fetish, yet doesn't have a little sister. @Sam-Pinansky might like this one. >_> - MAL & LNDB

This is probably it for LN licenses from YP for this weekend. There's still a Seven Seas panel Monday though where they'll announce some more physical publications of J-Novel Club series as per the obvious totally not a hint tweet from J-NC's twitter this morning.
