Novel pick-up requests

Anyone know anything about the VN or LN for this? Are the LN or WN still active?
Only I Am Not Attacked In A World Overflowing With Zombies

-
@terrence volume 3 came out in March and there's been around half a year between volumes so it's unclear from that. The WN is on the R-18 version of Syosetu so I'm not checking that right now...
-
I would like to request LV999 No Murabito/L999 Villager!
-
I am requesting you guys to look at this novel which has garnered some good attention lately. It's even one of the top voted in the recent Kono Light Novel ga Sugoi voting in Japan.!
-
I'd like to forward Sunday Without God - the anime was great and I've heard the novels are supposed to be even better.
-
Hi translator, would u like to pick "Gate: Jieitai Kanochi nite, Kaku Tatakaeri", Takumi-sensei going to make a sequel for that one, so i really like to read that one before the sequel get release. thank you ^^
-
Watching the new Justus R Stone weekly top ten from Japan.
I request:
Jacu-Chara Tomozaki-kun Vol.5
aka The Low Tier Character "Tomozaki-kun"

I immediately want this. About a guy who believes real life to be crappier than any video game he's played, but his fellow elite gamer is trying to teach him the rules of life and how it can be a great game. =]
-
Sounds like Shiro and Sora from NGL.
I've also wanted that title for some time -
@imilyaz YenPress already pick that, right?
they already release vol 1-6, vol 7 will release in february 2018 -
I want Gun-ota ga Mahou Sekai ni Tensei Shitara, Gendai Heiki de Guntai Harem o Tsukucchaimashita!?
More know as Gun-Ota
-
@aoiripper No game no life? Yea that one is already picked up.
I was comparing the protag to Shiro and Sora because they also think reality is a shitty game -
@aoiripper said in Novel pick-up requests:
@imilyaz YenPress already pick that, right?
they already release vol 1-6, vol 7 will release in february 2018I think he's saying he wants the title I mentioned. I'm sure he knows NGNL is out and about in English. =]
(NGNL doesn't seem to be my bag; prefer older characters / character designs; suppose I could just ignore the art and read the text; Ryou's Work is Never Done is another one I'm kind of avoiding, especially based on impressions, though the Shogi element could be intriguing).
-
@aoiripper February?? It was on October (I think) when I preordered it, then they pushed it back to December, and they delay it AGAIN?? God, I hate YP...
-
For the record, I'd love Lazy Dungeon Master as well, someone mentioned it somewhere in this thread. It's by Overlap, and we already have Arifureta, Faraway Paladin, Grimgar, and I think one or two more. :)
-
@Terrence I just finished Yuuji's backstory in the Labyrinth of Grisaia, and that's probably affecting my thinking, but if that concept was done right, it could be amazing. I'm probably thinking or wanting something far more serious than what it is though.
-
I was about to request 86, then I realized it was from Dengeki Bunko...
-
Please pick up this novel "Valhalla's Dinner" great story and comedy in it
-
@terrence I kinda dislike the childish vibe ngl gives of sometimes. But the plot is really good so I can't help myself
And how you desribed your feelings about the Ryou title is EXACTLY how I feel too, lmao.
also it's harem -
Justus did a video on Ga Sugoi magazine's rankings for light novels in Japan the past year. This list is pretty indicative of what is popular in Japan, and most of these titles make their way over in some shape or form stateside. Some really interesting stuff in there.
Part 1
Part 2
Some highlights for me of stuff that hasn't made it over.

Still wondering when is Mushoku Tensei gonna be licensed... I mean, it's like the highest rated isekai ever (in Japan at least), but somehow Death March, So I'm a Spider and That Time I Reincarnated into a Slime got licensed earlier. It doesn't make sense to me, even though the manga has already been licensed, so it can't be some weird stance like "we don't like our MC to be a little kid having the mind of a 30 year old lusting after childs" since the manga is already out...
