      Looks like Vertical will be announcing some novels soon.

      https://twitter.com/vertical_staff/status/1105269001511424000

      Maybe someone will finally pick up Kino's Journey, since they have the manga and stuff.

        It's probably some more Nisio Isin stuff.

          I'm a big fan of his work so hopefully we get some cool stuff, I'd love to see his crossover series get licensed for english speakers.

              So... Did the Yen PR team mess up in announcing that Higashino work on Twitter too early or was there a typo in the announcement or something? Tweet is supposedly gone without a trace now.

              Early April Fool's joke gone wrong? xD

              ...

              T_T

              It still is listed on their site, so...

              https://yenpress.com/2019/03/new-license-the-miracles-of-namiya-general-store/

              The movie was a real tear jerker; I did enjoy it and felt very positive after watching.

                        ^ I expected almost nothing, and got Zaregoto 3. So I'm happy.

                        I know nothing about Seraph, but I guess that's a sequel series? I... Shouldn't say I'll check it out since I got enough on my plate.

                        So when is AX? I'm guessing we won't get much announced before then from any pubs (someone said Seven Seas was teasing something a bit ago though on social media? They are doing their giveaway that they promised as well now).

                            They mentioned both the giveaway and the fact that they will announce stuff on March, the 1st when they explained more about survey and stuff.
                            Well, they also said they usually announce new stuff every 2-3 months so yeah~

                              We will finally know what the 5th and 4th titles are?

                                @bloodygaikotsu I will post on Discord as soon as I find out. Unless the Code Geass movie is showing at the same time, then... I might have to make a tough decision :X

                                  @myskaros I'm worried about the same thing. We should link our senses and separate. I typically post via reddit from panels so it isn't discord.

                                    2 new hints just went up on twitter. 3 new titles imminent.

                                    Over the next 3 days, we'll be announcing 3 new light novels.
                                    Here are some hints (one recycled):
                                    "It sure isn't stocks!"
                                    "The free shipping is finally worth it."
                                    "For all the book lovers out there."

                                    Stay tuned!

                                    I'd say the 3rd is Ascendance of a Bookworm.

                                      Well, if the third isn't a Bookworm then Sam is quite a fabulous troll.

                                          Did he verify it? It could also be the bookstore one, which would also be kinda great, either way. :) I'm hoping for Ascendance though, as the translator stopped a while back.

                                            Oh man I hope it’s ascendance it would be a pretty big troll if it’s not
