@lighthawk96 You don't need to buy everything, you know.

So far every recent announcement from JNC has had at least one novel I've taken an interest in. Hopefully that continues, or even better if they get something that's on my top 5 list.
-
I'd be jumping for joy and party like hell if JNC licenses any of the top 20 most Up Voted series in the Licensing Suggestions.
-
@Liber-Monstrorum
I don't! I don't! But just buying some is enough. Everyone announces all right around the same time so the budget can get torn asunder really quickly if I'm not careful. -
@lighthawk96 Ah yes, I know what you mean. J-Novel Club premium ebooks aren‘t the only books I buy...
-
JNC's generally the only one who starts releasing pre-pubs right after the announcements though. I think there's some announcements from other companies from last year where I'm still waiting for Vol 1 of the LN to come out, so I'm a little less concerned about other companies new licenses taking up my budget or reading time on a more immediate basis.
-
Only a bit over an hour before the new licenses are announced. Does anyone have any final guesses before the big reveal?
Last chance to place your bets! 😉

I second this with all my heart

So just the one new license?
I have plenty to read, but I guess I do hope Seven Seas has a few more tricks up their sleeve before the month ends. Tentai announcement should be something I'll get too.
-
@Terrence there were two new licenses. But one of them was for additional material on a series they already have.
-
So, what got licensed?
-
- Culinary Chronicles of the Court Flower
- Ascendance of a Bookworm Official Fanbooks 1-4
-
Fortunately both licenses are right up to my taste, but I‘m a bit disappointed that they announced only two new licenses and one of them is additional material.
-
For me the greatest news was the fact that Sam is in Japan for business reasons. Meaning he's probably negotiating new licenses for new series and/or licensing new volumes for current series.
JNC LN Ranking:
1st - Rokujouma
2nd - Realist Hero
3rd - Bookworm -
@pcj
Wow! Thanks! -
@BartzBB Yeah. This gives me great hope for the next round future licences.
Anyway I'm not surprised that the Bookworm fanbook is liscenced but I kind of didn't expect it to happen so soon. Is it going to be released part by part like any other LN or is something different going to happen given that it's a fanbook?
-
I'm kinda surprised that Seirei Gensouki didn't have a physical version announced since its also getting an anime.
-
@Eternal-Wanderer it already has one announced and is coming out next month. Unfortunately it's a 2 volume omnibus though.
-
I usually always check a few titles from each new batch but this time it's been really disappointing. There's only 1 really new license and then all print announcements.
