Acquisitions Speculation - General

IS seems like a pretty big deal still (the anime was marmite but popular and not too too long ago). I enjoyed it for what it was - dumb and trashy, but comfort food fun. No trope too trope-y! I’m actually quite excited to read and compare as this’ll be the first LN that ive seen the anime first.

The next one is the only one I may be able to correctly guess as Kou 1 Desu ga Isekai de Joushu Hajimemashita.
So Hint 3 was Undead Adventurer, not Hint 2 set? Interesting.
So hint 2 is still up in the air? Not part of the Horizon series + an army of evil.
And we still got that Not a Light Novel hint one.

@terrence IS is army of evil and not part of horizon series.
Sorry but J-Novel Club does not publicly comment on any potential licensing decision or acquisitions.

Wait, what? I figured IS was "Better Late than Never".
I'm so confused... So I guess Mushuko Tensei is still a possibility for hint 5.

@terrence
It seems this is the "half of the army of evil" means@stardf29 said in Infinite Stratos: Volume 1 Discussion:
@paulnamida Can't really say about the Horizon clue but the "half an army of evil" clue is...

Never knew IS is under Overlap now. I sorta lost interest after the author had that fight with MF and saw no new volume come out till 2 years later. Nice to know I can eventually read the continuation.
Also sorta wish Skeleton Knight in Another World was the one instead of Nozomanu Fushi no Boukensha. I liked the WN translation and since the WN stopped getting LN officially translated would be nice. Still gonna read it though since I am interested.

@vinnces I love that one too. Maybe you are better at convincing Sam than me :D
-
Surprised IS wasn't licensed in its hayday. Takes me back though.
Laura best Girl. Fight me.

@thoraxe41 You misspelled Charlotte.
-
@tremorc seconded, it still baffles me everyone keeps misspelling her name. #CharlotteBestGirl #TeamCharlotte
-
Indeed, Charlotte is the best choice.
-
I also agree.
-
@paulnamida agreee...
-
@sam-pinansky the novel "The Unwanted Undead Adventurer" on the announcement page is missing the link to its title page (unlike the genius novel). Also "Infinite Stratos" is not listed on the page yet either, or was that LN outside of the 5 hints given there?

https://j-novel.club/forum-link-removed ?Hmm, ongoing series with only 2 volumes and both came out in 2013. I sure hope it's not that one :(

I was honestly wondering if the novel was Sound Euphonium. That's a novel series, and allegedly about the author's experiences, so it might fit. 'cept I found out it was being translated by Yen Press. (Though they haven't done a second novel in almost a year. :( )

I'm so sad about that one. I don't know if I should be a punk and annoy their social media manager / email exchange about getting more novels, or just accept it.
I really found the characters interesting in that they weren't all 100% likable, even Kumiko having major faults in terms of her actions and her desire to succeed vs not practicing as hard + having fun. T.T

I liked it a lot too. I admit though, I started liking it MORE when the fans of the anime started screaming because the book was different, and it 'ruined their ships'.

@terabyte
I just mentioned it 'cause the name kinda fits...
It will be weird to pick up smth like this but it's just a shot in the dark anyways.
