      @kino I think the tokyopop had full metal panic light novel. So the license is probably in limbo.

        @corp20 actually every one of those were Tokyopop licenses, but TokyoPop probably don't have the rights to those any longer

            Is it bad that I check a fan translation site multiple times a day in hopes Sekai no Owari no encore gets updated.

              I really Want Classroom Of Elite to get licensed

              I have finished watching its anime and
              Now i want it to get Licence even more

              I read an post on internet which said that anime is kinda different in many things compared to Light Novel
              e.g., many scenes of Other characters were not shown
              And

              Few scene of other female characters were changed for Horikita

              And

              Anime covered Vol 1-3 of out of available 6 volumes (not including vol 4.5 since i take it as part of the vol 4)

              And vol 4, 5 & 6 are really good

                        @bryan unfortunately Hachette are only listing a physical release for "That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime" at present.

                        A digital edition has now popped up on their B2B site. Doesn't appear to be listed on Amazon yet though.

                          @shiroi-hane it's page on the Yen Press site only lists it as Trade Paperback, could you link where you found that digital edition?

                            @paulnamida http://yenpress.com/digital/ in the "Out in December" section. Looks like the splash page for the electronic book is broken or nonexistent though.

                            Whoever said nothing's impossible never tried slamming a revolving door.

                              Only the vol. 2 ebook is showing on the main Yen Press site right now, but see https://www.hachettebookgroup.biz/titles/fuse/that-time-i-got-reincarnated-as-a-slime-vol-1-light-novel/9781975301101/

                                still no pre-purchase option... it might be just a Hachette fuck up, thanks for the info though, I can keep just a tiny bit of hope up

                                  @kino I completely forgot about Full metal Panic until After I finished the survey. Yes. Definitely Full metal Panic. Recreate the first 3 volumes and release the rest.

                                      Justus posted his new Japan Light Novel weekly sales vid. I figured I'd mention since there were two unreleased works in America with lots of volumes and new to the list here.

                                        VRMMO is pretty good in a slice of life way. Or at least, the Manga is. The LN, I'm not sure. I tried to read it, but the translation gave me a headache, the grammar was pretty bad.

                                          All but the latest volume of 賢者の孫 have been on sale on BookWalker (and probably elsewhere) for a couple of weeks which might have boosted sales.
