Novel pick-up requests
-
I have a couple of suggestions. First one would be Restaurant to Another World. Second one would be Eromanga-sensei. Not very confident about that one, because it's published by Dengeki Bunko and they seem to be super tight with Yen Press.

Been seeing clips of this on Crunchyroll. I don't really get the presentation of the dishes in this one. They're so plain. Like, a baked potato? Really?
-
@terrence It's a bit of an odd anime. They spent the vast majority of the first eight episodes doing character introductions. I'm wondering if the story is going to start moving soon. The potential is there, but will it be realized?
-
I'd like to see Oda Nobuna no Yabou as well as Amagi Brilliant Park get picked up
-
Gun-ota ga Mahou Sekai Light Novel is a must. Definitely going to buy it.
-
@unholyfiretruck Oh yes I would love to see Amagi Brilliant Park translated too. I think it'll make a great LN
-
Watching the last couple of episodes has convinced me, Gamers is something that needs to be licensed. Not to mention it would give this site an actual slice of life series, something it lacks at the moment.
-
If people are looking to learn about series that aren't in English to suggest here, Justus R Stone posted a new video on the top selling volumes in Japan for the past week, and there's lots of ones most people have probably never heard of.
I want the craftsmen Isekai, and the one with the 40 year old dude. xD
-
I love those videos of his, so far what I want from those list's are
The Different World Magic Is Too Far Behind!
Fairytale Chronicle: Kuukiyomenai Isekai

@eternal-wanderer
You're forgetting UchiMusume. Also, I wouldn't consider Gamers! to be a slice of life series. -
@aruseus493 Considering Uchi-Musume is based in a fantasy world I wouldn't really catagorize it as slice of life series either and thinking about it Gamers really is more of a romantic comedy than a slice of life series. Though since it lacks any supernatural hi jinks that we see in so many light novels nowadays I would still say it has slice of life elements.

Yeah, they both seem pretty fun - I would definitely read both of these! I had a quick google and they're both Kadokawa though so probably a no-go though from JNC. :(
Edit: I'm sure this has been brought up before but what are the odds of Arcadia Garden being picked up? It's Overlap but has multiple authors (the first volume says there will be 10 authors for the series) so I don't know whether that complicates things or not. I'd like to see more from Kanata Yanagino so I'm interested in this.
-
I think you guys should take a look at Shinka No Mi, The Evolution Fruit – Conquering Life Unknowingly.
-
I'd wish for Sagrada Reset, though that's Kadokawa and therefore unlikely.
-
Not sure if Im posting something already requested but here goes,
Any chance you guys might pick up
"Isekai Maou to Shoukan Shoujo Dorei Majutsu"
Vol 1 cover
Vol 2 cover
To my knowledge Kodansha holds the license as well.
Its currently being translated by https://isekaicyborg.wordpress.com/
however his early translations for the novels are really rough around the edges.
His manga translations for the series are far more passable however.Its basically your typical, roleplay, shut-in, NEET gets summoned to the world based on the game he plays as a demon king, however when he gets there due to his social awkwardity, he basically has to keep up his role-play shindig so nobody finds out hes in fact a social trainwreck. So far from what I can tell its minor healing, mostly comedy action adventure with harem hijinks.
8 volumes are currently out I believe.
-
@bryan yeah, I'm hoping for that too, since importing the books to my country raises the cost by 50-60%
-
@bryan unfortunately Hachette are only listing a physical release for "That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime" at present.

"Isekai Maou to Shoukan Shoujo Dorei Majutsu"I actually picked up Slavemagic on a whim a while back because the art was pretty. I was worried about the "slave" part, but having more recently tracked down a translation it's not even as bad as Shield Hero in that regard and no worse than Death March. The sexual content is another matter though...
