      @terrence The tweet you linked says there will be light novels tomorrow. ;p I'm guessing one of them might go under the Ghost Ship label.

      edit, Reading it more carefully myself, it doesn't necessarily promise multiple lns... Guess we'll see.

        Whoops, literally just reread it, yup.

        " If you’re into manga, light novels, or SEXY content, don’t miss tomorrow’s licenses"

        My brain is working as well as usual. xD

          @terrence I want Light Novels. I feel like the amount of content I get for manga sucks compared to Light Novels. Length wise at least plus manga are usually less detailed as well.

            @terrence @myskaros Ok so ghost ship implying stuff the recipient might want to hide the fact they ordered it. Never thought about that possibility.

              Considering the Ghost Ship thing, might be High School DXD or Shinmai Maou no Testament. Could also be Magika no Kenshi, I guess.

                  As mentioned in one of the locked request topics, Skeleton Knight got licensed by Seven Seas. =]

                  alt text

                  Eve x Eve, an older age Yuri manga, was the other license for today.

                    And the next one is another random yuri. This event is really disappointing so far.

                      Count me as disappointed too. These licenses just sound so... safe, expected maybe?
                      Day 1

                      • yuri manga
                      • manga similar to two other series they publish
                      • spin-off of a licensed series

                      Day 2

                      • yuri anthology
                      • Isekai LN/manga number 6874

                      How much you guys wanna bet tommorow's announcements will have monster girls?

                      Like, I get that isekai sells and they have an established audience for yuri, but maaaaaan.
                      I was hoping they'd announce the source novels for some of their manga (Shinmai Maou or Vanadis). I'd definitely buy the Vanadis novels.

                      My light novel counter (EN & JP) for series published by Yen On / JNC / Seven Seas

                        I was thinking of starting to read again the fan translation properly from scratch if nobody was going to license it soon. Guess I'll just wait for SSE to come out with it then. It will be quite a long while until volume 1, but I've got a lot of other things to read so I'll just wait.

                          @terabyte It might be sooner than you think, Seven Seas has been releasing some of their light novels digitally months before the physical copy is released. Still probably be a few months though

                            @eternal-wanderer Oh makes sense. I'm in no hurry though, with the reading list I have I'm good for years lol

                              You called it.

                              Edit2: Bakarina (Explosion Flags or whatever) Manga?

                              Edit 3: Yup.

                                So, they kept me waiting for the last announcement.
                                I love Kakukaku Shikajika and I cried reading it (definitely buying it)
                                Also, it's one of the stuff I asked for in the surveys.

                                    Well that event was very underwhelming. Only one i'm remotely interested in is the Mushoku Tensei Roxy spin off that i had no idea existed.

                                    Oh well... maybe next time there will be something a little more interesting...

                                      Skeleton might be interesting, but yeah, not much there.

                                      Everytime announcements come, I wish for Date a Live, DXD, or Rakudai Kishi, and every time I'm disappointed. :)

                                        Pretty much only Skeleton Knight catches my eye. I guess Bakarina too, but I’m more interested in the Light Novel for that.

                                            Considering that both the Bakarina novels and manga have been licensed I wonder if we are in for an anime announcement soon.
