@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 🙃 😋
but there's was some interesting stuff announced -
@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.
-
Hints!
- I guess the first 6 didn't cut it.
- Solving your own assassination has never been so romantic!
- You killed Myne! You bastard!
- Extracurricular activities have never been so deep.
- Falling from noble status isn't only for female protags anymore!
- The swords have a socket setting.
Also, they are confirmed as light novels.
-

There are bayonets that fit into sockets. I suppose, depending upon the style of sword, one could fit into a socket on a pole creating a bladed pole arm.
Sockets can also be found upon sheaths and pommels and such for holding jewels {portable wealth] or if a magic accessory scenario magic stones, that kind of thing.
I kinda doubt it's an electrical socket thing, but who knows?@saffire said in Acquisitions Speculation - General:

There are various titles talking about it being their 'seventh time around' or the seventh prince, these types of things.
Something where you know there were six before them. -

There was an actual thing called a Sword Bayonet, where the bayonet has a long enough handle (and blade) that it could be wielded as a short sword even when it wasn't attached to the paired rifle. They saw a decent amount of use between roughly the Revolutionary/Napoleonic wars and the First World War. And there have been Light Novels set around that period (or its fantasy equivalents) before...

There was something along those lines in a work here at JNC "recently", wasn't there?
I'm flashing on having commented it being a misuse of terminology until someone provided info such as you mention, but it clearly didn't stick.
...or maybe I was the one who researched that it did exist; I'm having Wikipedia article searches suddenly flashing before my eyes related to this... Checking to see where it's been mentioned in the forum discussions might provide a possible lead if this does relate to a new license.
