      A little delay on a single title isn't really a problem. If the contract had to be canceled, that would have been bad. But since it just requires some rewriting that's fine enough.

      For now I just want to know all the new titles, once I know them I can see if I should pick up some WN fan translations I had my eyes on for a while (like Lazy Dungeon Master). There's no point in reading WNs that might be translated shortly, I better use my time for something else. Even more so because quite a few WNs/LNs I want to read are from publishers JNC works with :D

        (I'm not going to read the synopsis in case it has a Grimgar connection).

        Edit: Publisher: Kadokawa...

              @crimson-wise Without seven-seas logo (and a smaller size) I suspect it may be just a limited AX print.

                @_08 I'ma wait for a clarification on this one before confirming it to be more than just a limited print.

                    Sorry but J-Novel Club does not publicly comment on any potential licensing decision or acquisitions.

                        If only. That would be a confirmation for a leak. Image is just probably a bit too small for you to notice.

                              @crimson-wise I'm favorably impressed by the article. Sam and J-Novel Club for some decent coverage in that article, without getting dragged into the New Life + controversy. Very good press coverage indeed.

                                @paulnamida Agreed. Now I just have to find the time to read 44 chapters (if I like the novels)

                                  @terrence I think that not a new serie, from the synopsis it's seem to be connect to it previous big serie "bara no maria", but may be we will get one of his other work like https://over-lap.co.jp/bunko/jumonjiao/mahou/,the grimgar spin off or "bara no maria".

                                  Do you like death, war and misery ?
                                  Do you like badass op loli who let nobody got in their way ?
                                  Do you like vengeance story?
                                  If so then then vote for The girl who ate a death god

                                          They misplaced(?) the image for Lazy Dungeon Master 5. Or maybe it was on purpose lol
