Acquisitions Speculation - General

Also, Faraway Paladin is a Print Release?!?!?! YESSSSS!!!!! I have wanted a print release for this series back when I first read it on my library's Overdrive app, back before I even knew what Jnovel was.

I had two simultaneous reactions to this announcement:

Lily Garden

@lily-garden so I only got 1 of 4 right, which was about what I was expecting

SleepyTexan

I only guessed Endo but I'm pleasantly surprised to see Private Tutor to the Duke's Daughter which was also on my wishlist.

Zero Believers Goddess looks interesting so I hope I end up liking it as much as the last titles announced.

ehmk

I’m so happy I’ve been waiting for the goddess with zero believers to be licensed forever

Silver Sugar Duchess

Will there be hints again, or not this time?

@silver-sugar-duchess Unfortunately, we are completely swamped getting things ready to go for AnimeNYC, so we just don't really have time to do hints this round :(

Silver Sugar Duchess

@myskaros What a pity, it is always so much fun guessing the new titles.

As long as one of the releases is this title, I'll be happy.

Isekai de Tochi o Katte Noujou o Tsukurou

Let's Buy the Land And Cultivate in a Different World

異世界で土地を買って農場を作ろう

All the same name, but I would really like to see this June get licensed! Pretty Please!

Silver Sugar Duchess

@lighthawk96 For me it would be Sugar Apple Fairy Tale, Fake Cinderella and Free Life Fantasy Online. I would be so happy if J-Novel Club actually licenses them! Earl and Fairy would be awesome too, but unfortunately J-Novel Club hasn‘t tied a connection to this publisher yet.

Any word on how many licenses are being announced?

@thegrimlich

There will be a panel at AnimeNYC on Saturday the 20th at 6:30 pm Eastern Time.

There will also be announcements on twitter, and plenty of conversation in Discord (link available on the bottom of the page on J-Novel.Club)

Since there are no hints this around I shall just have to make random guesses mwahahah:

Heat the pig liver

Fake Saint of the Year

Delicious Veranda

I Summoned the Devil to Grant Me a Wish, but I Married Her Instead Since She Was Adorable ~My New Devil Wife~

Sugar Apple Fairy Tale

Now all that's left to do is to await the announcements and see how wrong I turn out to be...

HarmlessDave

I'm going to go with five anime series I liked that have absolutely no hope of being acquired:

Campione!
If Her Flag Breaks (Kanojo ga Flag wo Oraretara)
Kino's Journey
Maoyuu Maou Yuusha
Problem Children are Coming from Another World, Aren't They? (Mondaiji-tachi ga Isekai kara Kuru Sou Desu yo?)

(See: https://forums.j-novel.club/topic/1156/read-first-compiled-list-of-existing-suggestion-topics?page=1)

I predict that the accuracy of my guesses for new LN titles will be slightly less than 0%

My two biggest hopes are Isekai Yururi Kikou (unlikely as it's an alphapolis license) and Rebuild World. But JNC's licenses have been pretty good overall, I think there's always been at least one thing they announce that I end up buying.

LadySilverRose

I really hope they announce Sugar Apple Fairy Tale!!!
