Abe's Last-Ditch Solution
When I read this, I thought of the whole abduction issue and North Korea.
The reminded with Gate but that's ouuta question...I guess -
@bloodygaikotsu
I'd love for it to be Gate, but that's more of a wishful thing for me rather than having any real chance of getting rescued. I doubt Sam has managed to meet Alphapolis too. At least, he hasn't last we heard. (Less than a month ago I think.) -
Hmm.
Could be something based on the stories of Abe no Seimei, like Tokyo Ravens and other things. I'd love Tokyo Ravens, but that's Kadokawa and I dunno if Sam can get another Kadokawa property that soon. :) Could be another urban fantasy like that, though.

Not Actually An Imouto Harem
It might be Kawaiikereba Hentai demo Suki ni Natte...but I prefer not tbh
since, I prefer getting the LN. -
@aruseus493
Just typing out my thought pattern. -

Abe's Last-Ditch Solution
Hope this doesn't mean it's just really ecchi series like Hybrid × Heart Magias Academy Ataraxia tho
-
I’m hoping you’re right about the potions one, FUNAs works are all somewhat similar but that is my favorite one of the three.
I will say none of those hints look like they could be the LN of bookworm, so I’m hoping that the as yet to be confirmed might be.
If not I’ll just hope for the future and enjoy another 4 or 5 new LNs.

I can't be the only one that thought of Abraham Lincoln when I read "Abe's Last-Ditch Solution".
Maybe something to do with abolishing slavery? -

- My Frenchman Will Be Pleased (Reference to The Obra Dinn)
Cool, as a frenchman i would be pleased by Grimgar spin off ^^
Joke aside if it's a reference to The Obra Dinn it could be The forgetfull detective serie by NisiOisiN, both being detective serie with some time element and nessecity to write done what happend.
But NisiOisiN seem to be publish by Vertical, and novel uptdate claim that it's in the same univers as the monogatari serie, they're not allway truthworthy on that but if that really the case then i don't see it be licence by JNC. -
Now With Less Laborious Lecturing
Similarly to previous "now with" hint, probably another JNC title (e.g. magic with its tldr magical explanations). Edit: apparently someone else mentioned that but whatever.
Ironically No Anime Adaptation
Could be something with plot about anime. Don't know anything like that, though.
@doublemangekyo said
I can't be the only one that thought of Abraham Lincoln
You totally can because Shinzo Abe is a current Prime Minister of Japan and solution probably refers to birth rate meme.
-
@raitoiro
Why this one? (Especially, the concept of time with Kyouko is more abstract. And it's more about what it feels when today(Kyo) is all you got ans do we still be the same person if we lose our memories)
Well, the connection between the two series is fan theory about Kyouko is older Hanekawa anyway.Well, a series that has mystery solved by time loops like Erased or Re:Zero might be a solid guess but I can't remember any rn.
-
@bloodygaikotsu I choose that one cause that the only one that came to my mind ^^
It's true that the link is weak but it's kind of allway the case with those hints: the one for Yume Nikki was "not a part of the nasuverse", aparently because Nasu mean eggplant and there was a mini game about eggplant in the original game
In fact if i'm end up being correct, compare to that one, this one would have been a strong hint ^^
What make me dubious is more the fact that NisiOisiN is mostly publish by Vertical even more if it could be a monogatari sequel. -

My Frenchman Will Be Pleased (Reference to The Obra Dinn)
I just thought of smth
but it's a bit of stretch.
it might be too much of a stretch.-
It's mystery.
there's a bit of time issues.
Sam was asked about it on Curious Cat months ago but he said the market might not be ready for it back then. -
It's a publisher that Sam hasn't dealt with before—Shinchosha.
-
it's quite the risk but it's a 1000-plus-page book divided into 2 Tankobon then 3 Bunkobon—so, the risk might not as big as longer mystery series.
-
The author is an enigma.
Madman or woman or alien.
Only available in English in old Faust volume and a novel released by Viz.
However, it can please Andrew Cunningham (but he's not French, I think?)
Disco Detective Wednesday
But as I said, it's too much of a stretch -

If it is a JNC title, is there an Undead Adventurer manga?
It has one, yeah. Just got a volume 2

I think Less Laborious Lecturing refers to Unwanted Undead Adventurer manga.
My reasoning: If you spell out the English title in katakana, you get a triple A(ア).

Well, pretty sure that one won't do anything good for Abe, when they don't know ABC of making babies~♪
-
Complete the Tryptich, maybe a third series by Ichiro Sakaki?? We already have Bluesteel Blasphemer and Outbreak Company.

He's got a new one that looks like it shares names / similar designs to Outbreak, but... They aren't the same characters? I don't know, I'm probably wrong, but that's what it sounded like from Google Translated reviews.
