      No concrete clues for any of the upcoming titles, however here is 1 from Discord

      (echo)

        Some random thoughts on the clue "(echo)". I'll spoiler them just so others have a chance to see the clue and develop initial thoughts without being influenced by the direction mine went in, since I don't think my thoughts are all that likely to be correct.

        spoiler

        I can't actually think of any titles that line of thought would be hinting, but maybe others can if nothing good comes out of other lines of thought.

              Ugh, more things to read now as if I hadn't enough already. I'll surely take a look at Bakarina and Head Beast.

                      Nope, but I did give a glance to the Periscope after I posted.

                      Yeah, I've never seen that Beast Headed Husband one since it's Shoujo. Destruction Flags I know because it has been talked about a lot, and I think I'll have fun with that. I looked up the song for Echo, but I'll try to avoid giving it a listen until I read the book.

                      Edit: Did they mention anything about the catch up for this month?

                        Sam described it as "A girl sees everyone's heads as beasts, so when one day she meets someone with a human head, she marries him immediately. However, now everyone else sees his head as a beast's, and she wonders if she caused it."

                        No word on catchup, but Sam did mention in Discord that he needs to change it lol.

                          @terrence Me, I did listen to the song and it was pretty good IMO.

                              @shirley !!! That's awesome, I'm REALLY looking forward to the comedy. Read this in WN form.

                                I’m pretty happy with those announcements. Everyone who reads it seems to love Bakarina, so I’m looking forward to that one the most.

                                I’d never heard of Echo, but I enjoyed the song after looking it up, and it sounds like they’ve got an interesting premise based on that. Beast Head is only two volumes and per the stream the publisher really likes it, so I’ll probably check that out too.

                                  Thanks for all theses volumes.
                                  I wanted to know : Do you will continue "I will defeat even the Demon Lord for my daughter" ?
                                  Look like it's finished in Light Novel.
                                  Anyways, if i have some questions, where i can post them ? Thanks !

                                    @shiroiryu the final part of “For my Daughter” volume 7 comes out in just a couple days. I believe an 8th volume is planned to conclude the series, but it hasn’t come out yet in Japan. When it does come out, J-Novel will surely start translating it within weeks of its release.

                                    Anyways, if you have any questions about this company and website, it might already answered in the FAQ page here: https://j-novel.club/faq

                                      All Routes Lead to Doom and the Beast Head ones sound pretty great! Excited to see just how broadly JNC is expanding what they release!

                                        All routes lead to doom WN was the next item on my list of stories to muddle through, so glad the announcement was made now.
                                        Beast head also sounds amazing and I kinda want to listen to the song but I also want to go into the book without spoilers.
                                        Also @Shirley looking forward to this next book!

                                          I wonder when we can expect these new announcements to start releasing.

                                            Oh, these look good! And I see JNC got a new publisher partner too, Ichijinsha. I will definitely support the shoujo LNs so hopefully we get more over here and maybe, just maybe, the two I've wanted for a while will possibly get picked up. I think I'll work on adding them to the License Suggestions forum.
