@raitoiro Yea, but how hard is it to license from Media Factory? J-Novel hasn’t gotten any titles from them before.

AX Announcement #4: A license "rescue"
Now is will it be something that has already been licensed like Kinos' Journey or Aria the Scarlet Ammo or something else? Why is rescue in quotation marks?
-
@legitpancake It may be hard, but anythink need a beginning. And parts of the LN are realeased as bonus with the english version of the manga, so the editor may be willing to export it, even in digital version.
-
"Highly requested" and "They don't make them like they used to"
Maybe... Rakudai Kishi? it would be great.
"Finally my String Theory background comes in handy"
Hmm.... Growth Cheat? -
My guess for string theory is rather than science, it'll be sewing or knitting or something. (If they didn't already have Rokujyouma, I might think that. :)
-
Growth Cheat certainly does have some zany reality stuff going on (like how when you get isekai'd, your existence is erased from the old world and everybody forgets you), but beyond that I'm not really sure how it would fit "string theory"...
That said, I adore that series. I just wish that the author hadn't slowed to a crawl. There were 130+ chapters in its first six months, but only 12 chapters in the last six months.
-
The "string theory" one may be for Kara no kyoukai (the garden of sinner) given how complex are the world, characters and story structure.

Help! I'm drowning!
I can only think of 2 possibilities and both are quite the long shots lol
The Ocean Chronicle Series
From HayakawaAnd
In The Pool
from Bungeishunjuu (Mari's autobiography publisher)
It was translated once then it went outta print. (It's part of a series of 3 books tho)Like is there an isekai where the MC is a marine creature?
-
@raitoiro
That's more of a rescue title tho lol
But Kodansha Novels, huh?
Dunno if Vertical will let him have it... -

AX Announcement #6: Finally my String Theory background comes in handy
maybe has something to do with the string of fate?
-
License "Rescue" could be Hentai Ouji since it was listed by DMG as being licensed at one point. They never released anything though.
-
@aruseus493
That would be great~! (Since I love the series)
But it brings us back to the big Q: whether Sam can license Kadokawa stuff now or not... -
@guspaz Is for the Imouto. In the story she travels to another world by herself (she made complex calculations).
Well.. it's only a hint.

Like is there an isekai where the MC is a marine creature?That one where the MC is a female Orca.
https://bookwalker.jp/de48104c40-1952-4ba6-ad6a-2a9b70fc0fcb/?acode=WpfPW3yk
That orca ends up being grounded on grass at the start and flies through the air though...

AX Announcement #8: They don't make them like they used to
I have a feeling that this will be something about a lost magic or a lost art, where in the past things were more powerful or were better than the modern world. or MC using knowledge or power from the past like that one with the MC reincarnates hundreds of years in the future where magic has declined.
Though I want Magicraft Meister where MC uses knowledge from the previous holder of that title (from thousands of years prior) and makes new things.
Edit: I also think there should be a "C" between the "A" and the "Q." you have it spelled like that the first time but the All-Caps versions are not.
-
@zchronos The calculations weren't to send her to the isekai, though, just to calculate exactly when and where she needed to be so that it would happen.
-
@drone205 Could be a novel about saving people, or some series that was licensed by a failed publisher previously (like maybe an old Tokyopop LN) bit still is going strong with a decent fanbase here in the West.

It could also be 7th, were the MC is able to speak to his Ancestor and at the beginning most of them are trashing him for being weak and not worthly of the house name.

@raitoiro I tried reading that one when the ft first started it.
Personally, i kind of enjoyed the way the ancestor treat him, but if that was the reason you drop it u should give it an other try because it's gone by vol2, and the ft is now compled
