Acquisitions Speculation - General

Maybe, I should start to not expect anything less, the effects were instantaneous.
We can, objectively, say this batch was better than the previous one, right?& @Hyperion managed to get smth off his last on the same day he wrote it...talk about luck lol
-
What was the last batch?
If it's the licensing event that had 6 LN licenses, that had 4 I really, really want.
-
@terrence
Meant the one with alchemy novel
I don't even remember what else was licensed back then... -
Finally something from Sazane. I love his work since Encore and Eden. Been waiting for Encore but Kimisen is not a bad choice at all.

Though I don't really know enough about the Alchemist one to say it's not a good one to have, I just hadn't even heard of it.

It was a really new title so we had no info about it.
But, at least, in terms of crossing stuff off our wishlist, this one managed to help us with that. -

The War End the World/Raises the World LN & manga, Reborn as a Polar Bear manga and THE GENIUS PRINCE’S GUIDE TO RAISING A NATION OUT OF DEBT (HEY, HOW ABOUT TREASON?) are all really good titles. I can't wait to read them.
-
Good haul, but damn I wish the horror one was a LN and the Polar Bear wasn’t the manga... Still lots to enjoy so I must not complain.
-
So Sam mentioned on Discord that the unconfirmed LN has now been confirmed! Translation hasn't started on it and there's no official hint for it on the announcements page (though he mentioned that it's not anything that's been particularly requested, so probably best to not make expectations too high)... At any rate, though, it's nice to see that last LN confirmed.

I don't mind that. Could be something fun / unusual / in a genre we don't have much of.
We still have the stocks one left too, right?
-
I’m still waiting on the 4th of the confirmed titles let alone that unconfirmed one.

@catstorm
So glad that you brought this up. I was just wondering the same thing. -
Bakuman is a manga about mangaka’s who make manga they want made into anime... with anime being the milestone for the real prize at the end...
Hitman isn bad either, not so much about anime yet in it. More manga... only from an editorial view.

They said most of these will release early, but then some like the Sword Dad series would not get a physical copy until August this year which is quite a while for just 1 volume. Does anyone happen to know how long they generally take for digital releases..or if they even do digital
I don't know if it was officially confirmed before, but Sword Reincarnation is May digitally.

I wonder how long until we get the last 2 LNs. Sam said the 5th one is now confirmed so I guess it's gonna take some time before they translate the first 4 parts.
I'd love to see a LN about the MC being able to travel between worlds though. I had high hopes for 80,000 Gold, but... I'm not even sure if it will come out for now.

Whoever said nothing's impossible never tried slamming a revolving door.

Sam said on his Curiouscat five days ago that it'd be about a month for them, so I guess we can expect them by mid-March?

Yep, already reading that. It was a nice discovery but it has only 2 volumes out thought (with the second one starting TL soon). I'd like some more similar series/content 😋
