Novel pick-up requests

I wonder what the chances of getting Madan no Ou to Vanadis would be, the Anime wasn’t great but the overall story looked like it could be interesting.

For J-Novel, probably not that great, considering the publisher, Media Factory, is another Kadokawa brand company...
-
@doublemangekyo Sadly. The fan translation stopped right when the lead was finally getting with a love interest, too.

Konjiki no Moji Tsukai is not happening. It's published by Fujimi Fantasia Bunko, which is an imprint of Fujimi Shobo, which is a Kadokawa company. If you want Kadokawa novels, you should go bug Yen Press for them.
"Sigh." Well, thanks for telling me, I just really want to read Konjiki no Moji Tsukai Light Novel. And so, any chances for the other two series I mentioned?

The manga was licensed by Yen Press, so maybe there's some hope of them licensing the light novel too?
-
Are there any light novels with a truly ensemble cast? Something like Tsuredure Children, where there's no real lead.
I think there's some Honeyworks or something LN that has a different set of characters every volume? I wouldn't mind that.
-
@terrence Magical Girl Raising Project would fit.

Yeah, I can't wait to get into those. Not a whole lot enticing that expires next month, so good time to do so.
Anyone know anything about Jinrou Game series? I see there's a manga, some Beast side story novels and manga, and other stuff. What are the originals, the novels or manga? I'm thinking I might pick up one Japanese series on Bookwalker to wade my way through.
Kind of in the mood for some death game type series (Judge manga on their way to me, then I still got Secret to read through).
-
Hello everyone,
Does Majo no Tabitabi have any chance of being picked up ? I really love this light novel and the most similar one to it is Kino no Tabi.

They're published by AlphaPolis and I can't find any relation to Kadokawa, so yeah, the other two probably have a chance.

Seven Seas got that one, not Yen... They seem able to license Media Factory manga like Absolute Duo and Anti-Magic Academy, but I don't know if the same applies to the source novels.
-
@kite-xx there is an illicit translation of Word Master and I seem to recall it being fairly decent (IIRC it was the title where I was so relieved at the quality of the English after sampling so much dross that I went and bought the Japanese ebooks right away). Pretty sure I’ve brought it up in this thread before for that matter.
-
I'm sorry if this has been mentioned before (since this thread has gotten really big), but has there been any English licenses for the KyoAni light novels?
I have been kinda interested with the original Musaigen no Phantom World novels, among others.
-
Ah oops, my bad

was it cloudy translations that translated Konjiki no Word Master you were talking about? I was really disappointed when they stopped in the middle of Volume 3. I prefer the LN over the manga if the series ever get published to the west.

More isekai ones, I`m reading all of those you already have and would love to get even more.
-
@shrike_al
No, nothing published by Kyoani has ever been licensed. -
You guys have such good LN requests I wanna just read them all but if I do that I’ll get interested and end up getting depressed cuz of the hiatus on some LNs :(

LN delays are nothing. A Dance with Dragons was published in 2011, but there's no inkling on when Winds of Winter will be done. Words of Radiance came out in 2014, and Oathbringer just came out a few weeks ago, meaning the next book might not be out until 2020.
Whoever said nothing's impossible never tried slamming a revolving door.
-
I would like to request the light novel Isekai Yakkyoku published by Media Factory.
