This one was on my Bookwalker Wishlist. Always glad to take more stuff off of that (you can only have up to 1000, and it's nice to see wishlisted stuff coming stateside!). =)

Tomozaki-Kun was also on the wishlist.
And I bought V1 of Fremd Torturchan (I might check that out a bit tonight or tomorrow to prep for a potential Anime NYC focused podcast without having to read a synopsis).
Edit: TUEEE was also on my wishlist. It was kind of impossible to ignore, it got a lot of sales promotion on there.

The Arthur one was nowhere on my radar. I guess it only has one volume out so far, volume 2 releasing November 20th in Japan.

(Adding the Bookwalker links so I can read the previews easily too if possible).

Well, they might be testing the water.
So far, all Fujimi titles ain't titles with more than 10 volumes released, after all.
(Either for Seven Seas or YP) -

Yeah, to bail out when a completely unknown and unmarketed title flops hard. Oh well, maybe next time they'll at least mention that it's from the same author+illustrator from index.

I was there, at the Yen Press Panel, I was really disappointed with the announcements. They should have licensed Record of the Grancrest War.
-
Personally, I am hyped for all the announcements but the Wolf Children one, and I just don't know a lot about the Arthur one. I was very pleased. I had no expectations going in, and I walked away with 4 Yen LNs I plan to pick up, 1 Seven Seas work announced outside of the conference (Restaurant to Another World), and one Haikasoru work.
Other than maybe the one about the girl putting her points into defense, there's nothing I expect to happen license wise that I'd be surprised and disappointed if it didn't at some point (I guess no Zaregoto was disappointing, though I haven't invested into that series yet). I was happy we got a few licenses with older characters in the Yuri space, but yeah, maybe branch that older audience idea out to the novel space as well with some Novel Zero label works in the future. And I obviously still want some mystery label stuff, specifically Sakurako-san. Doesn't sound like that's possible here though. =(

The OASG (who recorded the Anime NYC presentation of Yen Press for Twitter / Periscope) has an Anime NYC podcast up.
https://www.theoasg.com/podcasts/its-not-my-fault-the-oasg-podcast-is-not-popular/episode-66-the-mostly-anime-nyc-edition/11088The Light Novel Podcast is recording on Monday or Tuesday this week, but I have no clue when it'll go up (usually takes a week to edit, but we also have another podcast that's been recorded but not posted yet). Anime NYC focused and a tiny bit of Kono Light Novel Ga Sugoi likely too.
