Acquisitions Speculation - General
-
Thank you hatguy. Long title? Shuumatsu Nani Shitemasu ka? Isogashii desu ka? Sukutte Moratte Ii desu ka? or Seichou Cheat de Nandemo Dekiru you ni Natta ga, Mushoku dake wa Yamerarenai you desu or Tsujou Kougeki ga Zentai Kougeki de 2-kai Kougeki no Okaasan wa Suki desu ka? or maybe Uchi no Musume no Tame naraba, Ore wa Moshikashitara Maou mo Taoseru kamo Shirenai. haha, long titles. And about not Isekai, that is pretty wide range :D
-
@hatguy12 I was actually about to mention that one too.
And Vampire/Lord ~Kunrinsuru wa, Shuuen no Kenou~ (ヴァンパイア/ロード ~君臨するは、終焉の賢王~) made think of the Fractal hint, maybe because of the cover but it's a pretty random guess.
There was also another pretty long title, Inochigake no Game ni Makikomareta node Kirai na Yatsu wo Norinori de Kattapa kara Koroshite Yaru Koto ni Shita (命がけのゲームに巻き込まれたので嫌いな奴をノリノリで片っ端から殺してやることにした). -
@Fezu alright I am officially placing all of my hopes into Rakudai, if it isn't Rakudai then I will have to travel to an isekai where the license was Rakudai
That seems like the easiest thing to do.
-
About fractal hint, maybe Blood Sign (mitou shoukan) ?
-
Fractal hint is either a super long running series or a time travel/loop series. A Dengeki series would've been neat though!
-
@Fezu Fractal? It can be actually question to butler in Blood Sign LN, if I remember well, his name was Fractal. Sam, you must love this torture :D
I will be really happy for Rakudai. And also for long title, Shuumatsu Nani Shitemasu ka? Isogashii desu ka? Sukutte Moratte Ii desu ka? will makes me really happy, this LN broke my heart, but still it is so good story!
Hmm, for fraction of the galaxy, maybe a LN Heavy Object? -
@Hakomari Looks like it's a HJ series so I think it's a strong possibility.
-
I'm kinda surprised there is no link to the "announcements" page anywhere on the home page... I digress though.
In regards to these hints:
Fractal can also mean expanding symmetry like how a snowflake works, or the creation of chaotic phenomena, like how a galaxy is formed. The thing that throws me off about this hint though is the "?" tacked on with Fractal.
At least it's not an Isekai phrasing does seem to imply something like an isekai. So I think everyone thoughts on a fantasy like genre is probably pretty spot on. I don't know how this could be narrowed down though...
Long Title #6249 for some reason makes me think of one of the anime's being simulcast this season. I think the shorthand is Suka Suka? That said, there was a couple of ANN articles over the past few months that talked about really long title names. I think the "6249" is either representing the novel series, or it's a random number which could in fact also be a hint in itself. Just a random thought but maybe 6249 stands for June 2nd - April 9th? Or some variation signifying starting publish date to end.
Fraction of a Galaxy... a piece...of a galaxy?... Yeah I got nothing.
Sorry I'm not much of a guesser but I did want to give my own interpretation to open up potential avenues for others that are stronger suited to this.
-
I'm praying that one of those four is a frigging rom-com.
Seriously. I'm having withdrawal symptoms after Oregairu got licensed, and we wait for translation of last arc for a decade. lol....Also the clues are too hard. My guess:
- Mitou Shoukan://Blood Sign
- Lol, that's not a damn clue at all.
- Shomin Sample: I Was Abducted by an Elite All-Girls School as a Sample Commoner. (well, I wish) But again that is not a god damn clue at all!
- Moretsu Pirates?
-
God, Moretsu Pirates would be awesome.
-
I know it's not technically a light novel. But Crest of the Stars comes to mind for the fraction of a galaxy hint. Probably just wishful thinking though.
-
Sam, when you will announce the titles? : X
-
@sparhawk6 Probably going to be within 1-2 weeks+ of the first two titles then another 1-2 weeks+ for the next two. At least that's how the last ones' were.
-
The "At least it's not an isekai" combined with the first 3 being isekais seems to imply that the other 3 hints are also isekais.
-
"At least it's not an Isekai"
Would love it if this was Only Sense Online. At least I don't think that has an official English release.
-
@SirPaper Speaking my language. Would fucking love OSO as it's one of the series I've re-read the most. Fan-translations are pretty much dead for it at the moment.
-
@yoshimin Btw, about oregairu, we wait now for vol 12, but all older volumes + side stories are translated already I think.
About vol 12, the date is still not set. -
@sparhawk6 Oregairu is licensed. You don't get it right? volume 12 will never get a fan translation. Official translation will wait until the rest of the volume is done.
-
@yoshimin there is a couple of LN that get licensed, but are translated atm, but whatever. I will wait and see what will happen. Because author itself is slow now.
For now I am most interested in new LN from J-Novel, I have somehow high expectations. -
I'm trying to keep myself chill 'cause I don't want to get all excited it might be X or Y, and have it be Z. :)
