It's the 10th anniversary for Rokujouma, so JNC is going to have a Kickstarter this fall for volumes 1-31 print omnibus editions. $50,000 primary goal, stretch goals include a collector's box, drama CD translations, more info to come in the coming months. This is going to be Kickstarter-limited, so these won't be seen in retail stores.
This Kickstarter is also being used as a testing bed, and, if successful, could lead to other series getting opportunities down the line.
Whoever said nothing's impossible never tried slamming a revolving door.

@flarecde This fall there will be a Kickstarter for print copies of Rokujouma. Each book printed will contain 3-4 volumes of the series. I think he said the KS goal is going to be $50,000 with rewards/stretch goals like an art book, drama cds, and such.

JNC definitly was the best batch this year, "Otherside Picnic" and "Altima the sword princess" look really interesting.
Plus we're getting more wars and female lead titles so ti give me hope for "The girl who ate a death god"Do you like death, war and misery ?
Do you like badass op loli who let nobody got in their way ?
Do you like vengeance story?
If so then then vote for The girl who ate a death god -
@myskaros TAKE MY MONEY, SAM!
-
The Kickstarter sounds great. One of the main thing which puts me off from many Kickstarters is high shipping costs and uncertainty regarding customs issues due to living outside the US. Hopefully that won't be a barrier for this Kickstarter.

Plus we're getting more wars and female lead titles so ti give me hope for "The girl who ate a death god"Wrong book, it's this one.
Onna dakara, to Party wo Tsuihou Sareta node Densetsu no Majo to Saikyou Tag wo Kumimashita!
女だから、とパーティを追放されたので伝説の魔女と最強タッグを組みました！You also missed one, the Seinaru Kishi no Ankokudou, which is a brand new book from OVERLAP.

I'll definitely back the Rokujouma Kickstarter on Day 1. I really hope there's enough turnout for it to succeed. I'm also pretty excited for Altina and interested in Beatless. Otherwise, I'll probably be checking out the prepubs for the rest anyway and see if any stick for me.
-
@myskaros Yeah, I don't know why I mixed the 2
It's sad, the one we are not getting look way more interestingIt's more that I didn't find anything for it, if you have a link for it would be cool.

@raitoiro I believe it's a brand-new series, that's probably why there's little info on it. It has a web novel, but those don't get much English press unless someone fan translates it.
-
hmm, for jnc licenses the only one I remember seeing in suggestions or otherwise hearing about was the otherworld picnic. Kinda disappointed that out of my wishlist only Majo no Tabitabi was licensed (by yenpress), but on the bright side a number of these look interesting and I'll probably try them all and should find at least a few that I'll follow.
Anyone know when the next event that licenses are likely to be announced at is?
-
Some good gets there. "Cooking With Wild Game" manga and both of "Demon Lord Retry" have me really excited.
-
@hyperion I was AFK when he was talking about Beatless, so can you give me the details on that. I know it somehow involves a contract with Tokyo Otaku Mode but that's all I caught.
