      I for one am hoping that we're going to see some new license distributors whether it'd be from Kadokawas' own bunkos or if KyoAni was interested in planning out a deal for some of their own unlicensed published light novel series.

      Either way, I am super excited. But I am also wary that it might not be licenses and something else instead. Either way, positive news about J-novel always gets' me going and I am looking forward to whatever it is.

      Also, I was surprised when I saw that in Steiner's portfolio. But I never say no to possibly more Steiner translations. Definitely not!

        Well, I will be happy for Rakudai license, but I guess that I want too much.

            I'd love for another print run announcement with Seven Seas (Smartphone is getting an anime...).

            However, the way the tweet is presented makes me think that they've made a deal with another publisher. Looking forward to whatever the announcement ends up being.

              I just realized the announcement might not be anything, considering it's going to be on April Fools possibly. Welp we took the bait. Haha!

                @Fezu In b4 "My Toilet Bowl is an Isekai". :nauseated_face:

                Edit: Did you post their latest Tweet in response to a reviewer on Twitter?

                "I advise if you're announcing anything big to NOT do it on April 1st,. for obvious reasons. :)"

                "Yes, anything we'd announce on April 1st would have to be really special."

                Hmm... We've been had? xD

                      My Little Ponii Can Read Kanji!

                      That was something special.... I don't know MLP well at all so some of the jokes went over my head. That last scene got a chuckle though!

                          I should've known, man preemptive April Fools are way worse than ones that happen on the day!

                          Oh well, still got to look forward to whether or not those two other tentative titles happen.

                                All I can think about is that they must be interesting titles if Steiner is potentially involved. Other than that since Sam is so convinced we'd be surprised about these titles. I guess there'll be a new title from a new bunko/anime related/or heavily requested one from HJ/Overlap.

                                  I worked hard to make the hints... hard this time ;)

                                  There's a logic to all of them however.

                                    Fraction of a Galaxy? Star/Planet?

                                    Clockwork Planet.

                                    I am joking

                                      @Fezu None of the clues are for Clockwork Planet.

                                        Really, the important question is if any of them will publish on Mon/Tues to fill the gap between releases...

                                            Hoping the long title one is Uchi no Musume no Tame naraba, Ore wa Moshikashitara Maou mo Taoseru kamo Shirenai .
                                            And the space one reminded I suggested Antique of the Galactic War Chronicle before, though I doubt that's it.
