Acquisitions Speculation - General

I hope Bakarina gets posted soon, from what I've read about it on Tvtropes it sounds hilarious.
-
@eternal-wanderer Sam said it should get posted this week together with Beast Head.
I guess we're getting the usual 4 parts for both since it's the first volume of a new series, right?
-
@terabyte I think both will actually go up wednesday next week because that'll be the release day. And bakarina will get 4 parts while Best Head will get 2 or 3 since it's only 2 volumes long.
Keep a look out for the events! We're just doing the final preparations now. -
@sam-pinansky happy the hear that.
-
Could you guys also look into doing Gamers! by Sekina Aoi. The publisher is Fujimi Shobo. It has been adapted into both an anime too.

If you want Gamers, show support in its request thread. =)

Sam mentioned on Discord that he has 3 LNs and a one-shot licensed that will probably be announced around Thanksgiving (3rd week of November).
-
That's far to far away... feels like it's been forever since a new book i liked was announced....
-
@timaaahh And the announcements page not being updated doesn't help either. Bakarina, Beast Head and ECHO aren't even listed there. (Though ECHO does have its homepage slider entry.)
-
Anybody knows what sol announced at the kumoricon LN wise?

I think it starts in 14 minutes. I could be wrong though.
Hopefully someone livetweets.
Edit: Their latest blog post said they were thinking about streaming "(if possible)", but nothing posted so far. Their Twitter will probably post updates as they happen.

@terrence
Just checked twitter, beside some VN I couldnt be bothered to remember, they announced the second volume of "Battle Divas" and "Strongest Gamer". They also announced 2 new LN's from Hobby Japan, "Redefining the Meta at VRMMO Academy" and "Why Shouldn't a Detestable Demon Lord Fall in Love?!". They seem pretty interesting, i'll probably give the demon lord one a chance if it comes out in print. Also considering buying battle divas later down the line. -

Yeah, the Demon-Lord at the Orphanage based LN interested me.

First up from our new partner Hobby Japan is "Why Shouldn't a Detestable Demon Lord Fall in Love?!" A story of the romance between an all-powerful demon lord and the matron of an orphanage? It's as crazy as it seems! https://t.co/NZmWnUTjg8 https://twitter.com/SolPressUSA/status/1056257764589268993?s=17The other one I missed:
Sol Press Tweeted:
Also from Hobby Japan, we have "Redefining the Meta at VRMMO Academy"! Imagine a school that teaches you how to play games! On top of that, imagine learning on the first day of class that your long-time raiding buddy is actually a girl! This story's got it all! https://t.co/vNnLzOFgiH https://twitter.com/SolPressUSA/status/1056258098480996353?s=17 -

@terrence

Also, LNDB is outdated. There are 5 volumes out for it, the last one came out around 2 months ago, on 1st September.
===
EDIT: I might give these 2 new LNs of theirs a try once they're out. Is there a release date yet? I didn't even look at the other 2 previous ones since I refuse to pick up abandoned series as a rule.
-
@terabyte
Would not be the first time LNDB is behind, but I still think its good enough.In regards to battle divas, maybe the author is just taking his sweet time? Wouldnt be the first one to write slowly, or maybe its finished? Checked LNDB for it again and says it has 4 volumes out so who knows (I knew of 3). But honestly it would be weird for them to license it after 3 years if it was dropped. But then again everything is possible.
In regards to print releases for the new ones, I'm pretty sure they are going to treat them the same as their first 2 light novels. Firstly put them out digitally and if they sell enough put them in print. I think it took them a couple of months to sell enough to print Battle Divas.
EDIT: read your comment wrong, so far I know they said nothing about release dates.
EDIT 2: From reddit, apparently the second volumes of "Strongest Gamer" and "Battle Divas" were announced for a december release.
