      I'll probably get it cause I want to read the series and support the author. (Perhaps encourage him to write more.)

        @terabyte It's episodic without an overarching plot. The 3rd LN is the final one for all intents and purposes.

          Oh, so it isn't really still "ongoing" as listed on https://j-novel.club/forum-link-removed? I might pick it up in that case, thought I'll probably wait until all 3 volumes are translated. I have enough novels in my queue to read right now anyway eheh

            New Hint on the announcement page.

            Better Late Than Never

            I'm already guessing Mushoku Tensei finally being licensed.

                  @yankee Mushoku Tensei was by far the most requested license on our survey, so... I'm just letting you know you are likely far in the minority here.

                  Well actually it's so popular maybe it also has the largest number of haters of any series too. So perhaps you're in the majority minority.

                    @aruseus493 Never read that one, but it seems like a good bet as Seven Seas has the manga. I’ve heard mixed things about it but I’ve also heard it’s extremely popular, so I’d be interested in it. If that’s not what the hint was referring to, I can’t think of anything better.

                      It's the Isekai SAO in popularity.

                        Beware: This may or may not (totally will) contain Canadien Propaganda and passive-aggressively attack Americans if you are an American that is Easily offended (aka stereotypical Americans) or an American that has not learned the great Canadien way of self-deprecating humour this post is not for you. all this is caused because I have tendencies to ramble off topic.

                        If I were to only need one reason to read "Me a Genius?" it would be that there is a Canadien. This will be another Big win for Canada, but do we really need another win over The U S of A (forget that Haruhi shipped a psychopathic Robor Alien and Justine Beiber we have Deadpool, Wolverine, the makers of Superman, and don't forget Poutine and so so much more). I would love it if the Canadien Girl was really skilled at being Passive-Aggressive yet be truly polite (or seem polite). It is much more satisfying to just poke at a person's most fragile weakness with a needle then shout at the person. Shouting might make kids or make the other person shout back but we can have casual talks while bringing someone down (hehehehehhe). the best thing is when you bring up either your self or someone else (usually someone you do not want to get mad at you) while bringing down someone else. I constantly bring down Yen-On while Bringing up JNC in the same sentence, Sam has also done this sometimes (which is awesome especially since everything he says is true).

                          If that's true that probably means he got his foot through the door for media factory if novel updates is correct. Which means there's some hope for series like unbreakable machine doll that actually got finished. Now heres hoping for GC novels/micromagazine... :V

                            Seiken Tsukai no World Break is on second to last volume so I pray for it. Just give me moar Shizuno.

                            Also I don't think I'll read the Genius novel that are just licensed since it's not look like my thing. It is poorly received in NU too but then again the review in NU really is overblown most of the time.

                                @neoankara NU is too easily manipulated. I have found a fan-trans who treatened to drop one of the series if people didnt raise the ratings to a certain point. Why? He wanted more people to read it and join his patreon.

                                  @jampodevral Well I know NU is rigged most of the time. And what you say is like app on Google Play where you can only unlock it's function after you give it 5 star.

                                  Anyway the problem in NU is that most of the review seems to don't know what they are talking about and are just showing how "smart" they are.

                                      I wonder when they're going to announce the other new novels, I remember reading that all 4 (now 5 with the new hint though) would be announced by the end of this month. There's a week left and only 1 hint has been revealed.

                                      There are no releases listed for today 21 Feb 2018 so it's possible a new one will be revealed today, we shall see...

                                        @terabyte I don't think end of Feb for all of them. I heard an average pace close to one a week, so end of Mar might be closer. I did hear that there should be one coming up within the next 7 days or so, but I'd consider that a rumour rather than a promise.

                                          It was written in a reply on Curious Cat if I recall right. I can't find the exact link right now.

                                          EDIT: and right after I replied I was able to find it. It was posted ~3 weeks ago near the start of February (when there were still only 4 hints) => https://curiouscat.me/jnovelclub/post/308466448
