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.

@paulnamida A "triptych" is defined as "a set of three associated artistic, literary, or musical works intended to be appreciated together," so "a random 3rd work by Sakaki" is kind of out there. Unless Outbreak and Blue Steel are intended to be connected and this hypothetical third series will also be connected to those two, that seems like an unlikely prospect.
Potion Danomi makes more sense since FUNA released all 3 of her works simultaneously and the other 2 have already been licensed.

@legitpancake let's hope that's the case!

Manga Hints:
- The Manga Adaptaton of LN#1 (#1 as in Complete the Triptych)
- Not Actually An Imouto Harem
- Now With Less Laborious Lecturing
- Fall In Love All Over Again
- Ironically No Anime Adaptation
LN hints:
- Complete the Triptych
- My Frenchman Will Be Pleased (Reference to The Obra Dinn)
- It's Definitely Not Stocks
- Abe's Last-Ditch Solution
I have no clues on the Light Novels, however
4. Fall in Love All Over Again might be Black Summoner. The protagonist has a summoning agreement with the deity that oversee's those summoned/reincarnated from a different world. According to the deity, the summoner confessed his love to her, but agreed to have his memory wiped in order to obtain more power. He supposedly said he would fall in love with her again even without his memories. The deity agreed and the protagonist needs to become powerful enough to be able to summon her and is anxiously awaiting his second confession.2. Not Actually An Imouto Harem might be Murabito Tensei: Saikyou no Slow Life. This is a little bit of a stretch though.

Just giving this a little bump.
When do you guys think we'll get some of these title announcements? Before / On Christmas or closer to New Year's?

My guess that Sam may wanna put Santa outta his job this year; so, maybe, on Christmas.
-
If he did them on Christmas Eve, he could really ruin Christmas. I'll be looking all the titles up on my phone instead of socializing with relatives at the dinner table. =P
Do it! xD

Fall In Love All Over Again
Just what if?
What if it's Mujaki no Rakuen (Paradise of Innocence) lol? -
@terrence
"Socializing with relatives" was never fun, so at least, you get a good excuse lol -
Cooking with Wild Game and I shall Survive using Potions just got licensed. I wonder which hints were these 2 supposed to be.
EDIT: Just realized that Potion Loli probably refers to Complete the Triptych. Since this series is one of the three series of FUNA.
JNC LN Ranking:
1st - Rokujouma
2nd - Realist Hero
3rd - Bookworm -
Is it happening. It's happening!
Who was the poster who was really excited for the Wild Game one? I remember that was one of the earliest food novels brought up here. You got your wish! =)
I heard the author of Gal Gohan also confirmed his manga for an English release with no confirmed publisher (this is thirdhand knowledge, so take with a grain of salt, don't know where the Twitter poster got that from), but I didn't think any of the hints pointed towards food stuff. Already proven wrong, so let's hope!

According to novel updates, both of them are being published by j-novel.
-
Uh so is Cooking with Wild Game refers to It's Definitely Not Stocks?
-
@zing I think you misread the “hint” part he was talking about.
JNC sometimes gives us hints to what they might license next. -
Do you think Santa Sam will bring more gift wrapped light novels this morning?
As I pray, Unlimited License Works! 🙏
-
The reveals are probably about what anyone here could have expected. I do hope for something more exciting next time but the remaining three announcements will probably be similar to these two.
-
The initial hints didn't really excite me (besides the "let's fall in love all over again" one), but the reveals were actually pretty interesting so far to me since they fit some subcategories of Isekai / Fantasy we don't have here (potion focus and food focus) and they were things I remember folks requesting. =)
I wonder if we'll get a non-Isekai / non-fantasy though. First batch of manga kind of disappointed me since it was all fantasy (one of them took place in reality, but still fantastical).
-
@terrence I completely agree. I had really been hoping that someone would pick up both of those titles and now JNC has. I'm thrilled that they managed to get these titles and maybe since we got the LNs maybe the manga editions will soon follow like it did with "Elf Bride".
Just a thought but hopefully a good one. Now we only have to wait to see what the other three releases are.
