Acquisitions Speculation - General
-
Yeah, it sounds like Justus is going to hold off on the Anime NYC podcast to include them, which I think is smart (and it selfishly gives me more time to research the other light novel announcements if so).
Since I think one of them is potentially a manga adaptation of a novel we already have, I think it's worth covering them, even if only briefly. =)

Any last second guesses.
Since it sounds like it's only manga, I'm curious if they're actually going to launch with a manga of a light novel that they don't have the license for yet / are still working on the license to acquire (ie; Exterminator). Hmm.
-
Well the Realist Hero manga has been revealed! Sam had the preview up for like 30 minutes and then took it down after some glitches were found. I think he plans on showing another one soon?
Also, for some reason the announcements page no longer has the manga hints.
-
I always wanted to read Default Original Title!

If they were gone, they're back up (at least I see them on my browser).
Edit: Chapter 1 is live. Time to see these enhanced character designs.
Edit 2: And now it's gone. I won't mess with it again, they're probably working on it. When I read it, some of the pages were missing (the one where he says "what am I, summoned to another world to defeat a demon-lord?"), so I opened the page again and it was gone.
-
Infinite Dendrogram is up!
Here is Sam’s explanation of the hint:
-
At this point I just hope we'll get something new >_>
-
Ooh, vertical scrolling. I appreciate that. =)
Edit: It's a little snappy on my browser sometimes (I think it's the disappearing / reappearing browsing bar on my phone that is messing it up; it'll snap when scrolling back in the other direction).
-
Here to a potential Isekai Mahou manga license, just so that we can have, you know, actual illustrations.
-
Yes!!! Imai Kami's Dendrogram!!!!! FUCK YES!!!!!
-
@terrence Yes, that is a known issue I'm working on fixing. Has do due with the fact that that is considered "resizing", and on resize the current page gets repositioned to its beginning
-
So two JNC novel titles gets the manga adaptation? Guess it's not too much to hope for How NOT to Summon a Demon Lord manga then.
-
@cosm1cfall
Seven Seas licensed the How not to Summon A Demon Lord manga series. They have two of the volumes out right now. -
How do you access Dendro and Realist on the app/website?
-
@village-idiot I don't think it's on the app yet.
On the site, I'd go to Titles, select Type-dropdown (in the search catalog space) and Manga option (instead of Novel), and then manga appears.
-
@hatguy12 Thanks
-
@shhotaku Well shoot. Oh well then.
-
I feel this was a really strong set of manga announcements.
3 series that j novel already has the LN for in Dendrogram, Realist, and seirei gensouki.
1 that I never saw coming but am absolutely thrilled about in Bookworm.
1 that I’ve never heard of before in Fairy apartment, but could be interesting.
-
I'm happy about Ascendance and that Fairy Apartment one, and I'm glad to see some series we know and love in action.
The publishers are Overlap, TO Books, and Hobby Japan.
I can't help but notice the slate all appear to be fantasy oriented. I know that's JNCs bread and butter, the main audience, but I'm curious to see what they experiment with genre wise there. I know they're looking into Yuri potentially, whether that's manga or LN.
