Acquisitions Speculation - General
-
So, it will be for classics audience.
Tbh, I dunno any anime from 1990...
Edit: they said 1990's
oh, I know a few then but dunno if any of them got unlicensed Manga or novel. -
Something Evangelion related?
-
People are saying Eva... I sure hope not.
-
Like does Eva really have any other work to its name aside from VIZ manga?
-
Well, 1990's, 2 viral episodes
it's only EVA....but what may they even license? -
Some novel alternate ending thing.
-
Looks like it's Eva anima
-
Well time to go sit in a corner for the rest of the evening disappointed

It has 3 manga series licensed in English.

You still have two more J-Novel announcements left to hype up! So you can sit in a corner and wait for them. x)

That is true. Hopefully I'll find something I like. Though I already like the cooking with wild game one

Blah. Never got into Eva. So out of the 13 announcements, I'm interested in one, maybe two-not sure about Ghostly Things. Pretty typical for me when it comes to Seven Seas' announcements. And I'm 0 for 7 of Yen Press' announcements. Not sure if I'll pick up any of the three light novels JNC announced already until the prepubs are done. I can't wait to see what the last two licenses are; perhaps one will surprise me.
-
Pretty much just "How to Train Your Demon" for me this round.
I mean, I'll probably read Sword Reincarnation too, if for no other reason than to keep up with the guys on the podcast.
I've got plenty to read for now though (too much to read actually).
-
@myskaros
I am talking about unlicensed anyway. -
So nothing.
I like Eva and all but dunno if I'm interested in alternate ending...Kinda wondering if the survey even had a point...
-
13 from Seven Seas
7 from YP
6 from JNCAnd the best I got is...3 maybes.
That's...quite disappointing. -
Here is a question is anyone out there genuinely happy about the Eva LN?
I am not being snippy or anything just really curious seems like a lot of hate.
I haven’t ever watched or read anything from the Eva franchise and don’t know anything about the stories so I am happy to read something brand new to me, but I can’t say I am genuinely excited they picked Eva over the many other things I wanna read.

@rahul-balaggan
Justus seems happy lol -
Justus always wants more Mecha. x)
Podcast spoiler:
I want more Mecha too, I just think I prefer something original, not an adaptation of something we can already participate with in English, even if there's some diverging (it says a different ending is the major change, so how much of the novel does this new material take up? Or is it the whole series that is an alternate telling of the ending, so you have to watch the show first? Is it just the final few pages of the last volume?).
You know what would be cool that has mechs? Xenogears Perfect Works. If that got licensed, I'd finally play the game. Of course... That's not original either, but it does provide closure to what was a cancelled series with I think info about where it would have gone? xS

Right now, it's not something that interests me. But ask me again after Netflix puts up Eva for streaming later this year and I finally get to watch it.
