@terrence Kou-1 Desu ga would be dope, that godly art by Goban <3
Yeah, I guess I'm not the only one thinking of that series, as someone posted about it in the light novel subreddit with The Mummy movie quote hint too about 2 1/2 hours before me. So they get first dibs at this if they're right, but we came to our conclusions independently. xD

@terrence The "not part of the Nasuverse" hint ended up being for Yume Nikki.
It was a reference to a minigame in it where you collect eggplants. -

I got nothing then. It could be anything, as random as a short story or minigame video game reference. Maybe it's"Not part of Horizon: Zero Dawn Universe" and not "Not part of the Horizons in the Middle of Nowhere series"? =P

@terrence Nasu means eggplant. :p

In before it's Isekai ni Tensei Shitandakedo Ore, Tensai tte Kanchigai Saretenai?
The way it was worded, I think it means a series that is already complete and has only 3 volumes: https://curiouscat.me/jnovelclub/post/322764398
The one you linked is still ongoing instead. I might be wrong though.

@terabyte
Yea, I was half-joking since Isekai Tensei is kind of a stalled series in Japan without a release since 2016. -
I gotta check my Bookwalker lists to see if there's any good 3 volume series.
I assume 86 is ongoing, but that's 3 volumes iirc.
There's a few Mecha that are 3 volumes.
Edit: Did I hear that Genji of the Kendo series mentioned before as a request? I guess that's possible since it has 3. Well, we'll see soon enough, so I probably won't make a master list of predictions. =P

@terabyte
Lol, looks like it was licensed. https://j-novel.club/c/me-a-genius-i-was-reborn-into-another-world-and-i-think-they-ve-got-the-wrong-idea-volume-1-part-1 -

It seems interesting but I don't like picking up novels that are not complete or updated (relatively) constantly. Almost 2 years since the last release is a bit too much for me :(
-
@terabyte
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 lndb.info? 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.
-
@aruseus493 SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!!11!!!!1!1!!!!!!11!!!!!
No, seriously, this has to happen. Like, for real.
-
@yankee a man's trash can be another's treasure, no need to act like a dick.
-
@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.
