@hyferzftw Yea. :(
That's like when I saw that neat Death Need Round series only had three volumes and last released in 2015 (and I don't think the last release said anything in the description about "final" or "last"). Completely moved it off my list of stuff I want. T.T

Well we know Hiroshi Mori is open to this kind of thing since he's letting Skycrawlers get serialized in English. In fact, that company has published a couple short stories from the Perfect Insider series. Sadly, the translations are kinda crap.

From Curiosity Cat.
How many of your announcement hints do you expect to have revealed the answers to by the end of this month? — All of them.
-
New hints up.
https://j-novel.club/announcements
I reckon the second licence is Horizon on the Middle of Nowhere considering the new hint.
-
@sniper_samurai They look the same to me as they were a couple weeks ago... I guess you’re just late to the party XD
-
@legitpancake
The previous hints were- It happens to me all the time...
- Half an Army of Evil
- They Usually Appear Around Lv 3
- Not a light novel
They are now
- Hilarious Misunderstandings Abound
- Not Part of the Horizon Series
- Death Is Only The Beginning
- A Personal Story
-
@LegitPancake : You've probably seen a cached version. If you reload, you'll see the new hints (or just read what @sniper_samurai has posted).
-
Oh wow y’all are right! Sorry about that! Even just now clicking on the link it showed the old version, but reloading it brought up the new hints. Now the question is if these hints are referring to the same series or are they ANOTHER 4 new ones. I’m guessing they’re just extra hints for the same ones.
-
@legitpancake They are new hints for the 4 unannounced acquisitions that are out this month.

I hope it's a Rom Com

(Something) in the Middle of Nowhere?
We had a hint like this before, and this was my thought process last time. I think it was "Not part of the Nasuverse". What did that title end up being?
- This quote is from "The Mummy" if my quick Google Research is to be trusted. Hmm. Do mummies start appearing in, like, Castlevania in level 3 or something?
Edit: Aha! Mummies appear in level 3 as the boss. I had a feeling about that (did I mention Castlevania with the previous hint? Because that was my thought process even then, but I was thinking Medusa heads). Of course, who is to say this is right... But I believe so.
- Some people were speculating about a biography / non-fiction dealio. Dunno if this is something like that or no.
Time to research LNs about mummies.
-
- I'd love it if itwas GAMERS! but that was Kadokawa right??
- Kyoukai no Kanata?? I'd surely love Horizon in the Middle of Nowhere though
- The Death Mage doesn't want a Fourth Time
- Too little hints >w< I'm not knowledgeable enough about Japanese regular novels aside from the Perfect Insider
-
I'm banking on this being the 3rd hint.
Accidentally summoned by an ancient map, first year high school student, Kiyokawa Hiroto is forced by the arrogant Lord of the castle to exterminate the vampire that has been haunting his castle. Unexpectedly befriending a girl from Mummy tribe, Hiroto skillfully managed to capture the Vampire with her help. However, he is soon framed by the Lord of the castle. Bravely and kindly aiming to be a Lord, the fantasy of being summoned to another world starts!
Involves a Castle, vampires, and mummies.

Yeah, I guess I'm not the only one thinking of that series, as someone posted about it in the light novel subreddit with The Mummy movie quote hint too about 2 1/2 hours before me. So they get first dibs at this if they're right, but we came to our conclusions independently. xD

@terrence The "not part of the Nasuverse" hint ended up being for Yume Nikki.
It was a reference to a minigame in it where you collect eggplants. -

I got nothing then. It could be anything, as random as a short story or minigame video game reference. Maybe it's"Not part of Horizon: Zero Dawn Universe" and not "Not part of the Horizons in the Middle of Nowhere series"? =P

@terrence Nasu means eggplant. :p
