So...what are people hoping for in today new license livestream?
I don't follow WNs or fan translations so I'm out of touch with unlicenced novels.
The only license I'm specifically looking forward to would be Bookworm (fanbook 3 and the next side stories and audio dramas).
I'm also generally aware that authors of existing JNC LNs have other works which have yet to be licenced for an English translation, some of which have been mentioned in epilogues. I'd be more likely to check out a new series from an author I already enjoy so that would also be fun.

It is t minus 1 day till new licensing announcements,
Y’all know my wishlist,
is there anything you guys are hoping will be in the new batch?

Bookworm Drama CD Transcript Collection, so we can at least read them.
-
I don't know what's available, but I can hope for something I'll enjoy reading, on topics I wouldn't mind thinking about more.
Like, a buddy comedy about gardening robots, or a slice-of-life series from the point of view of a music composer that delves into their creative process, or a technology-appreciation series about the marvels of hydraulic pumping stations and canals or a mystery series that focuses on tracing where items found in geocaches came from using spectrometers and other high tech equipment and psychic powers.

@strangeattractor Request unclear; licensing 20 more overpowered isekai otaku hero with harem novels.

@Lily-Garden I think you know my wishlist. Well, I added the manga of The Do-Over Damsel Conquers the Dragon Emperor to it now, too.
But I also know my luck...@myskaros Hmm, I definitely would love to have more manga adaptions of certain light novels, but overall we definitely need more manga.
-
Next stream is tomorrow right?
-
@Windsagio
Yes.

LOL
That could be its own light novel, like I Didn't Know What To License So I Chose 20 Overpowered Isekai Heroes And Now There Are So Many Interchangeable Harem Characters That I've Lost Track of Their Names

@strangeattractor Which in and of it self would be a follow up to I Got Hit By a Truck But I Wasn’t Sent to Another World! What the Heck?!
-
Hopefully this time my wishes will be fullfilled.
-
So I didn't get anything from my wishlist 😕 hopefully the next time 🙃 😋

@Lily-Garden Same here. Maybe next time we will have more luck.

Cop craft not licensed. D7h3jfy by
Sorry I had another stroke waiting for it. Sad
-
I didn't know about the licensing stream so I missed seeing live, didn't see anyone post about on forums so I missed it despite being on the forums all afternoon grumble grumble grumble
Ok rant over; gosh there's so many things to read, no wonder I'm having trouble finding the time to write my submission for the contest

From Twitter,
They have been dropping hints(?) for a bit as well, if I didn't miss anything:
-
On Discord, exedore says that this is a pre-recorded video, not a stream. Which is pretty unusual for JNC, so it'll be interesting to see what this is about.
-
@saffire
clearly jnc is buying bethesda from microsoft -
@TheGrimLich The Yurgenschimdt DLC for Starfield will be a big hit, I'm sure!
-
Announcements next Friday.
