        Beware: This may or may not (totally will) contain Canadien Propaganda and passive-aggressively attack Americans if you are an American that is Easily offended (aka stereotypical Americans) or an American that has not learned the great Canadien way of self-deprecating humour this post is not for you. all this is caused because I have tendencies to ramble off topic.

        If I were to only need one reason to read "Me a Genius?" it would be that there is a Canadien. This will be another Big win for Canada, but do we really need another win over The U S of A (forget that Haruhi shipped a psychopathic Robor Alien and Justine Beiber we have Deadpool, Wolverine, the makers of Superman, and don't forget Poutine and so so much more). I would love it if the Canadien Girl was really skilled at being Passive-Aggressive yet be truly polite (or seem polite). It is much more satisfying to just poke at a person's most fragile weakness with a needle then shout at the person. Shouting might make kids or make the other person shout back but we can have casual talks while bringing someone down (hehehehehhe). the best thing is when you bring up either your self or someone else (usually someone you do not want to get mad at you) while bringing down someone else. I constantly bring down Yen-On while Bringing up JNC in the same sentence, Sam has also done this sometimes (which is awesome especially since everything he says is true).

          If that's true that probably means he got his foot through the door for media factory if novel updates is correct. Which means there's some hope for series like unbreakable machine doll that actually got finished. Now heres hoping for GC novels/micromagazine... :V

            Seiken Tsukai no World Break is on second to last volume so I pray for it. Just give me moar Shizuno.

            Also I don't think I'll read the Genius novel that are just licensed since it's not look like my thing. It is poorly received in NU too but then again the review in NU really is overblown most of the time.

                @neoankara NU is too easily manipulated. I have found a fan-trans who treatened to drop one of the series if people didnt raise the ratings to a certain point. Why? He wanted more people to read it and join his patreon.

                  @jampodevral Well I know NU is rigged most of the time. And what you say is like app on Google Play where you can only unlock it's function after you give it 5 star.

                  Anyway the problem in NU is that most of the review seems to don't know what they are talking about and are just showing how "smart" they are.

                      I wonder when they're going to announce the other new novels, I remember reading that all 4 (now 5 with the new hint though) would be announced by the end of this month. There's a week left and only 1 hint has been revealed.

                      There are no releases listed for today 21 Feb 2018 so it's possible a new one will be revealed today, we shall see...

                        @terabyte I don't think end of Feb for all of them. I heard an average pace close to one a week, so end of Mar might be closer. I did hear that there should be one coming up within the next 7 days or so, but I'd consider that a rumour rather than a promise.

                          It was written in a reply on Curious Cat if I recall right. I can't find the exact link right now.

                          EDIT: and right after I replied I was able to find it. It was posted ~3 weeks ago near the start of February (when there were still only 4 hints) => https://curiouscat.me/jnovelclub/post/308466448

                              Yeah, so he wants to keep them to March at the latest... But I don't think anyone is going to hold one to these Curiosity Cat posts as gospel if licensing (or whatever that process is called) wasn't as speedy.

                                  If one of them is an Overlap title, I'll guess Nozomanu Fushi no Boukensha

                                  Nozomanu Fushi no Boukensha

                                  You were right!

                                  Sidenote: It's crazy that of the Bunkos by Overlap, only 3 have reached a conclusion according to Bookwalker.

                                  Rest in peace Isekai ni Tensei Shitandakedo Ore, Tensai tte Kanchigai Saretenai?

                                    @terrence lol, other guesses I failed at were stuff like that one about the werewolf general in the Demon Lord's army. Otherwise, my next serious guess was Mushoku Tensei so we'll see if that comes true. Otherwise, I have a bias towards Overlap titles since I stalk their blog for Arifureta news.

                                      Can someone make sense of one of the hints that matched up with the Undead title (Hints set #2 are for this, right?)?

                                      "Not Part of the Horizon Series"


                                      The next one is the only one I may be able to correctly guess as Kou 1 Desu ga Isekai de Joushu Hajimemashita.

                                      I'm going out on a limb on this one, but the hints point towards mummies. That'd be a cool pair of sort of gothic fantasy creatures oriented stuff, one serious (?) the other light-hearted... I think.

                                        I look forward to you being right too. It's like a more light hearted version of Realist Hero I think.

                                          That one turned out to be undead adventurer, though.

                                            Someone called Infinite Stratos at some point, right? I know people requested it.
