      When it says "root's favourite drink", it could be a plant - any LN based around water?

          @fozzedout It says roots's. More specifically, ルーツ mangaka according to @Hak0.
          I would suggest bear LN but it doesn't seem 'not that popular'.

                  • Sixth announcement: Last and First Idol (Saigo Ni Shite Saisho No Idol). Single-volume title from Hayakawa Shobo. (Finally my String Theory background comes in handy hint)
                  • Seventh announcement: JK Haru is a Sex Worker in Another World. Single-volume title from Hayakawa Shobo. (You Asked for Snu-snu... hint)

                    Is this real life?

                    At this point I think every title I've ever wanted licensed except Sasami-san has been licensed. Wow, what a nutty world.

                    The Kadokawa contract opens up so much too. Man, this is nuts!!!!

                        I was nutting all over KC and AmaBuri. And now they add Seirei Gensouki??

                        @Sam-Pinansky are you that set on giving some of us a friggin heart attack?? I'm hyperventilating!! I have a shift at the hospital tonight so I'm sad I won't be able to read the first parts of both KC and ABP, but I am sure glad that if I pass out I'll have proper attention quickly xD

                            They might be able to work with publishers that don't do digital only then! Like I was a sword when I reincarnated!

                              What was the 9th announcement? Or am I missing something here?

                                @fezu I'm thinking print editions was #9, but the panel isn't over so it might be at the end.

                                Whoever said nothing's impossible never tried slamming a revolving door.

                                  I thought it was the Teaser announcement. I guess we'll see .. Maybe the App update was an announcement. I guess?

                                    The "WRYYYYYYY" one is Seirei Gensouki, right? MC Rio's wry smile is an ongoing joke...

                                      So was that all the announcements? I didn't count. (And I dont't know if the "physical print" announcement was one of the listed ones). It was a "Big Announcement", which I assume was that weird lone one in the hints list?

                                      We have a Jyumonji Q+A later too, but I wouldn't want to get my hopes up for more stuff. Just dive into what we got when it goes up.

                                        I guess we keep it like this for now.

                                        Still surprised, did the Shogakukan deal get cut? At least we instead got Kadokawa licenses, this opens up a lot of new suggestions. Could get interesting now..

                                          I knew the Ryuu / Dragon answer... kind of. I was just learning that in Realist. I would have said one looks like a lizard and one looks like a camel (I think camel was the animal the girl from the other world was confused about?). xC

                                            And it's over, no more announcements.
