      @sparhawk6 Fair point I hadn't actually heard about Imperfect Girl. When was that announced? All I knew was that Kodansah USA was publishing the manga.

        @Catscope Not sure about when it was announced, but release date is 24 - 26 October 2017(It is different on amazon and bookdepository). Actually, @Rahul-Balaggan , Imperfect Shojo is also Vertical when I look on it.

          @sparhawk6 I swear on my entire collection of Manga Light Novels and Hentai that when I looked at the Amazon listing before it was Viz Media.

          Now it has been changed to Veetical.

                @sparhawk6 you know what I was wrong.

                I mixed it up Juni Taisen is Viz Media

                Imperfect Shojo is Vertical.

                Goodbye Manga Goodye Light Novels Good Bye Hentai. I was wrong.

                    I wonder if were going to get some new acquisitions soon, after all, J novel club is beginning to get caught up on a few of its series such as Realist Hero and Mixed Bathing. If they do grab some new licenses to replace those series I hope its something I've never heard of. Nothing against licensing series with popular anime but it really fun when you have something entirely new.

                      If there are any new licenses coming down please consider announcing them during Anime Expo (July 1 - July 4)

                      You guys might not be attending (this year) but all the other companies will be announcing stuff so you know peer pressure.

                        @Rahul-Balaggan When it comes to press, why announce during Anime Expo if we're not there? All it would do is get our announcement scrolled off the headlines faster.

                        Better to wait the week after.

                            @Sam-Pinansky Makes a lot of sense, indeed.

                                @Sasha-McGlynn Tweeted "???" as one of her current J-Novel Projects. Sounds like another announcement is around the corner.

                                  Sweet, I've been worried about how we're starting to catch up on a number of series.

                                    Same, and that worried me as this place is great and I want it to succeed.

                                    Glad to see Smartphone and Infinite Dendo's next volumes being done now too. :)

                                      I am so behind on almost everything that I don't even know if that's a good thing for me. I still need to check out the last 2 new series that we got (not counting Clockwork Planet), but for that, I want to catch up on older titles first. Help :cry:

                                      Jokes aside, it would be great if it was a new series. It seems that J-Novel is more or less starting to get close to finish translating some titles and catching up on some of them. So a new series is great, I probably won't read it right away, but that way it will have a couple volumes when I finally start it which is also great :smile:

                                        I'm way behind too, though some series I'm just going to skip until a free week of prepubs (Saved too Many Girls, Isekai Smartphone, maybe even Arifureta and Bluesteel).

                                        I was a bit bored looking at the current light novel line up on that English Light Novel database site, and really struggled looking for a new series to try (Asterisk War? I hear it's meh and not as good as the other light novel turned anime with similar designs Chivalry of a Failed Knight), so I could use something new.

                                          @terrence I decided to skip some series entirely and others I will do like you and wait for a free week to read them. In the beginning, I was reading a lot of them not because I enjoyed them, but because I could and wanted to read everything before expiring. Then I started reading them by the ebooks and I find it more enjoyable since I only buy the ones that I like (some exceptions).

                                          I don't necessarily need something new, but is more than welcome :sweat_smile:

                                            @pmf96 I read more by Ebook now too, though with Paying to Win and Insekai Smartphone I am trying to read prepubescent as I don't know that I want to pay for either but find them entertaining reads all the same ( and I want to get some mileage out of my premium membership!)
