      Predictable and safe picks from Viz and Yen, boring if anything.

        Happy to see Bunny Girl Senpai licensed at all but would have preferred someone other than Yen Press license it since there releases are glacial.

          @eternal-wanderer And they don't release their stuff on Google Play.

                  @sniper_samurai.?

                  Their series are on Google Play.

                  Wandering Witch is really good. It's magical Kino's Journey. Highly recommend.

                    @yoshken I wanted to hit the Yen panel too. After 3 1/2 hours waiting for badge pick-up that there was a glitch on and the prospect of another 3 hours in line to fix the glitch and then another god knows how many hours to get in, my fiancé and I just decided to skip AX and try our luck at refunds.

                    Last time I’ll ever go. It’s pretty fun when you’re in, but the logistics were a total mess this year.

                      @village-idiot Only in North America, they removed all their titles from the other English speaking markets.

                            @terrence And as I said in my last post only in North America. All Yen Press books were removed internationally and are unable to be redownloaded if previously purchased.

                                Dang, that sucks, sorry.

                                I remember when they went down on Google originally, they said they'd be back up in more territories than before. Not that one I guess. =(

                                      Fun fact: of the five new Yen Press LN licenses, zero are isekai.

                                      I'm mainly interested in Bunny Girl and Elaina; will probably check out Behemoth too.

                                        @stardf29 noticed that to but that could also mean the j novel and seven seas picked up allot of Isekai so Yen went a different way.

                                          @stardf29 Behemoth is an isekai though, isn't it? He's reincarnated into another world.
