Acquisitions Speculation - General
-
Now I wonder if I need to meme the hell out of Akashic Records to get it licensed *sigh*
-
New licences being announced on Friday.

Hooray! New stuff!😄✨🎆🎉😊
......not gonna lie though, I'm a little disappointed that we didn't get some hints on the announcement page this time 🤷♀️
It's just so much fun to see people guesses whenever that happens 😊 -
Hopefully one of them is Kenja
-
Ghostly Good Time? Hmmm...
(I'd like some more horror, but if that's a hint, maybe something like Holy Grail of Eris that has a ghost as a major character in a more traditional Fantasy / royalty based setting).
-
I’m not big on horror, but I think I’d be a little disappointed if the majority of October announcements were anything else. It just wouldn’t feel right.
-
There are no hints for our announcements this time.
-
I hope we get a Bofuri announcement, I"m amazed that no one has licensed that series yet.
-
My fear is someone like Sol Press has licensed it and is just sitting on it like they did for Chivalry.
-
@catstorm yeah Sol press are the destroyer of dreams and licences...
-
@Eternal-Wanderer I recall Sam mentioning at some point that his bid for Bofuri was rejected(?). I might remember wrong though (or he was just messing around maybe, lol).
-
@Terabyte
You remember right but that was before they did print so it might change. -
Stream has started
-
I was pretty happy with the announcements. In for some fun stuff (Yuri and Dungeon Busters) and our first real world romcom.
-
@Terrence so I don’t see the news posted anywhere. Which is the Romcom? Want to follow that for sure
-
-
Thank you. I’ll read that one for sure!
Do wish they’d consolidate the announcements somewhere for those of us who don’t watch the whole panel.
-
@the-green-death I think that they normally include them in their monthly update e-mail, whenever that goes out. They may also include them on the front page when they update it next, but that's usually monthly when the catch-up series change. I don't think that they really post a list anywhere else though.
-
@the-green-death ANN has an article about the licenses: https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2020-10-09/j-novel-club-announces-5-light-novel-series-for-2020-release/.165039
The first three series are already available, and the last two will be released "in a month, month and a half."
Aside from that, they announced a beta for the new JNC app.
-
@Crimson-Wise perfect, that’s just what I was looking for - I’ll give Social Game and the Cleric one a try out of this batch.
