Acquisitions Speculation - General
-
I recall Sam said Manga in November and LNs in December. So we should get at least 1 LN (or more?) soon.
-
@timmaaah the OP teases Rimuru's fight with Hinata which happens on vol. 4 I believe.

@paulnamida said in New Acquisitions Speculation General [8 NEW AQUISITIONS ANNOUNCED (5 MANGA, 3 LNs)! 2 AQUISITIONS YET TO BE CONFIRMED! IT'S MANGA TIME!!!]:
Hinata
From what I've read, supposedly there will be 24 episodes. So it's possible they may cover more books. I personally don't think the 2nd book will take as many episodes because overall it was very straightforward. However if they stick with 8 episodes per book then they definitely will cover only 3 books.
-
@paulnamida Ah true, I personally am only reading the LN, so I haven't read the WN or the Manga, so I don't really know what goes on in them.
However Vol. 4 is currently in the mail according to the email I got last week, so not much longer to wait :D

Yen Press is teasing something on their Twitter.
We have a BRAND NEW license announcement for you tomorrow that will BLOW. YOUR. MIND. Are you ready?!

People are hoping for Bunny Gal in the comments.
-
Maybe it's gonna be Shield Heroine since they've just announced the anime. I hope not though, if they get it it will take ages for each volume to come out... JNC really has spoiled us 😅
-
@terrence
I say it's the Konosuba Megumin spin-off based on the blowing part? -
@bloodygaikotsu
Makes sense to me. I doubt they would announce something huge like Bunny Senpai on Twitter and not at a convention. But a spin-off of a series they already have? Yeah I can see that. I'd be pleasantly surprised if it was a major license though. -
@terabyte I've never eard of that spin off, is it good ?
I've eard that
But as one piece book as the licence for the main serie, were not going to get a spin off from an other publisher, so you can also forget about JNC getting it.
And Onepiece book is unlikely to allready publish an other spin off when they just licence the spear hero spin off. -
-
@raitoiro Indeed, I meant the one @BloodyGaikotsu linked.
-
@terabyte ok, my bad i didn't eard about this one getting an anime too.
-
-
The anime was announced yesterday and we talked about it in Discord, so yeah, I didn't think of differentiating it better 😅
-
@bloodygaikotsu Holy crap you were right lmao
-
Praise me more~

Oh well, I haven't started Konosuba yet so I don't care for now. And release date is June 2019...
-
New hints are up! =)
Any guesses?
Edit: I got nothing. I mean, I feel like the "surprisingly no anime adaptation" one will be guessed (only so many manga about anime that don't have adaptations... You'd think). x)
-
New hints are out.
Manga Hints:
- The Manga Adaptaton of LN#1 (#1 as in Complete the Triptych)
- Not Actually An Imouto Harem
- Now With Less Laborious Lecturing
- Fall In Love All Over Again
- Ironically No Anime Adaptation
LN hints:
- Complete the Triptych
- My Frenchman Will Be Pleased (Reference to The Obra Dinn)
- It's Definitely Not Stocks
- Abe's Last-Ditch Solution
-
For "Complete the Triptych" (and its corresponding manga), a triptych is a three-paneled painting, so I figure it's the "third" in a set, and in thinking what are there three of that JNC could complete, what first came to mind are FUNA's three major LNs; with Seven Seas getting Abilities Average and Sol Press getting 80k Gold, that would leave JNC with I Shall Survive Using Potions. And yes, it has a manga adaptation.
As for "It's Definitely Not Stocks", given the earlier Curiouscat answer that one title is a reverse isekai, maybe The Hero's Success Is Now?
