Are we at Jnovel Club's limit?

@dullman Well I happen to have some pretty good info that Overlap has Realist scheduled in Japan on a very fast publishing pace.
You won't have to wait very long for new volumes to come out (at least until it catches up to the web novel release).I checked the publish date of those four volumes and it seems that new volumes is released about every four months (one was shorter?) so you are right they are pretty tight on schedule, but certainly it's good for us that they are keeping those kind of schedule so maybe we would not wait few months between released volumes.
Also I wish you to achieve planned success with j-novel since it's something that brings things that I do enjoy.

@sam-pinansky I had a job for 6 months where I had to learn regex for my interview and subsequently just write regex inquiries all day every day. In hindsight, it's been pretty much the most useful thing I've ever learned and I use it constantly in the 5 years since. Hooray for regex!
@dullman All I can add is my own perspective, which is that I disagree with your assessment of available novels. I subbed due to a completely different set of novels than you, and I think you're projecting too much your own opinion onto what's good or popular and getting worked up in the corner.
I basically joined because of realists kingdom, and the other two i said about being popular i get only from comments on this forum, since myself i can't phantom why they are popular, if it would be more comments about other works i would probably change those title but it's not (there were time where faraway paladin was popular but recently i heard some disappointed voices so I didn't add it here).
By saying popular I meant popular not only for me (but those are welcomed) but popular to broad group of people. For me getting Realists Kingdom in readable language is something enough for me (at least for now).
So my assessment of being popular novels here on j-novel was only done through reading comments so pretty subjective thing so everyone can disagree with this. -
Limit? Limits are meant to be broken.

@sam-pinansky Same. I joined J-Novel club because of Realist light novel and was amazed to find other books like Outbreak Company, Smartphone etc. It was like coming for a pearl and finding a huge treasure. Anyway thank you for all your hard work and hope we get to see more awesome releases in coming future. I just love reading these LNs on my Kindle.

@hyferzftw Let's not forget that we got eight titles at Anime Expo this year. That's quite a number of titles to translate.
-
Damn, this thread from the dead looks pretty funny given how JNC has scaled since then.
It'd be more thresholds where things have to change behind the scenes admin wise rather than limits
-
Remember though that some of those 8 are not ongoing/Active series at the moment.
how many active series have we got going at the moment?
-
@catstorm depends on some people’s definition of the word “ongoing” cause we got series like Clockwork, Amagi, and Second Life which are technically on hiatus.
Overall there are 17 ongoing series (that includes stuff like Paladin, and Mixed Bathing, but not the hiatus series I mentioned above)

I meant ongoing as a series that is actively being translated right now so I would count amagi as an ongoing jnovel series.
-
@catstorm 19, by my count.
-
If we are counting series that are still being translated by JNC with volumes available and with volumes that will shorty become available (Gear Drive, Realist Hero) i count 26 ongoing series.

@rahul-balaggan The titles I didn't count are:
- Arifureta Zero
- Clockwork Planet
- Gear Drive
- Realist Hero
- For My Daughter
- Infinite Dendrogram
- Rokujouma
- Mixed Bathing
- Faraway Paladin
- Watafuta
That's out of the 32 titles I count as active, which prove I can't do math, because I should have said 22, not 19.
-
Yeah i am counting
- Arifureta Zero (there is a V2 JNC just hasn't released it yet)
- Gear Drive (V2 comes out next month)
- Realist Hero (V8 comes out next month)
- Infinite Dendrogram (V8 comes out next month)
- Rokujouma (This is still being translated on JNC)

@rahul-balaggan So the four we have no information on are:
- Clockwork Planet
- Faraway Paladin
- Mixed Bathing
- Watafuta
Funny how neither of us mentioned Occultic;Nine, even though there's no sign of volume four there.
-
@paul-nebeling well my post was made before that 😬. I agree nonetheless tho. But who knows Holidays are coming and some might be international so who knows what JNC might have planned for us.
-
@hyferzftw Two new titles coming next week.
-
@paul-nebeling yeah I remember seeing that on the other thread. Well I was mainly talking about towards the end of the year or the start of next.
-
@hyferzftw Christmas presents. I like that idea.
-
We might also get another catch up month on everything tho I doubt it.
