Acquisitions Speculation - General

@jon-mitchell I would suggest making a post about that in the Suggestions & Feedback forum if you want to be heard, because burying it in another high-traffic topic is not ideal.
Whoever said nothing's impossible never tried slamming a revolving door.

@jon-mitchell While I see your point, most of the stuff on the discord at least is just casual chatter and isn't meant to really be an announcement. It anything potentially significant is mentioned offhand it generally gets reposted by someone somewhere like this thread. It would be nice to see some of the twitter and curiouscat Q&A get reposted or consolidated on a dedicated thread here, though.

@myskaros
thanks - I created a new topic -
-
Is the date for the print edition?
-
Huh. I remember seeing a suggestion topic for that one here. Anyone read the Japanese?
-
@terrence
Yes. They don't announce the early digital release date till later. -
Blasphemy, how could they remove " (｀・ω・´)♂〓〓〓〓★(゜Д゜ ;;) .:∴ " from the title
That title was perfect (´･ω･`), joke aside from the first 2 chapter of the manga it look like a good comedy -
@shiny I should have guessed that thanks

In case you didn't see on your landing page, Seven Seas also got Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear
-
Nice, there's a number of series that I'm interested in:
- Sazan & Comet Girl: it's an homage to space operas, so YES.
- Penguindrum novels: YES since it's short and complete and I liked the anime.
- I Had That Same Dream Again novel: YES. I'm pleasantly surprised they licensed another novel by the same author as Pancreas. That makes three now along with that Monster one. I hope they'll continue the trend and license other Japanese novels that aren't quite light novels.
- Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear LN:
I may try a volume, but if it ends up print-only, I'll hold off.*Edited: YES. Now that I know this will be available digitally too, I'll definitely give the first volume a try. I've fallen in love with two SOL light novels recently, I've been meaning to try more.
-
I know I’m going to be disappointed if Quad Bear is a physical only. Due to the fact that I am mostly a digital buyer for multiple reasons. One of the reasons is that I am always moving due to my profession and carrying a book could lead it to being dirty.
-
BEARSSSSS- I mean, does Seven Seas do print-only often? Is this an actual concern?
-
I've seen some cases where the digital version was a little late but they in my experience they always have a digital option.

This post is deleted! -
Quite a good batch of license overall, I already have all the Penguindrum novel in french so I'm not going to rebuy that one but I'm likely going to check all the other.
-
@CaramelWithoutTheSalt Not really seeing the issue. I mean Seven Seas current stuff just isn't for you? I'm the same in that there was only 1 or 2 that I liked, however I've just cropped it up to the fact that the types of series SS likes to license nowadays are not my cup of tea, and that is fine.
I look at my shelf and most the books I buy are from either Yen Press/On or J-Novel, and its because they have the ones i'm most interested in. No point getting irritated with a company when they clearly are trying to go against the grain of what I would call popular in the mainstream sense which is good too since it gives more variety for those who do want that stuff that isn't mainstream
