      New survey up. You can submit 18 licenses. They're broken down into category apparently. Going to give it a look.

      My votes are in.. I'll put them below in text form if I can. No Yaoi votes since I don't know any (I should've voted for that "My Best Friend Has a Harem in a Fantasy World").

      Manga:
      Abyss
      How to train your Devil
      Cheerful Amnesia
      This Art Club Has a Problem
      Legend of Mother
      Survival Game Club
      Slayers (?)

      Light Novel:
      ZoaHunter
      Sakurako-san (Beautiful Bones)
      Legend of Arslan
      Sōkyū no Karuma (Date a Live author)
      Remake Our Life! (Time-Travel back to college novel)
      Gothic Lolita Ping-Pong
      Attacking the Dungeon With My Beautiful Boss is OT Work?
      Light-Novel (Tatsuhiko Takimoto's new work)

      ...and a few others I'm already forgetting. xC

      Edit: They say it's generally best to format these with Romajii titles. So, if you're submitting, maybe do that.

        Classic manga – none
        Classic LN – Boogiepop (the rest of it that is)

          Classic manga – none

          I made something up for Classic manga. I think Slayers (does that have a manga, and is it already releasing stateside?). I was trying to remember Orphen's name, but drew a blank, and didn't feel like searching (and again, no clue if that has released stateside).

          Oh god, I should have voted for those Gargantia stories. I've voted for them before though, so hopefully that makes two votes if they're keeping track of old votes too.

              Seven Seas has licensed what looks to be a manga adaptation of the first novel.

              I will not give up hope! One day, some company will (hopefully) translate the two sequel novels.

                Here are my picks for this bonus survey. I did check everyone else's answers for help thinking of series for the various topics, so I encourage everyone else to do the same before submitting!

                • Fantasy/isekai: Tensei Shitara Ken deshita (both)
                • Comedy/Drama/SoL: Hatsukoi Zombie (manga), The Ideal Sponger Life (LN)
                • Action/Horror/Supernatural: Darwin's Game (manga), Legend (LN)
                • Ecchi/Fanservice: Dokunie Cooking (manga), Lord Marksman and Vanadis (LN, thanks @DoubleMangekyo for the inspiration :d)
                • Classic: None
                • Bonus: Gal Gohan (manga), Accomplishments of the Duke's Daughter (LN)

                Whoever said nothing's impossible never tried slamming a revolving door.

                    My votes are in.

                    Manga:
                    Cheerful Amnesia

                    That "Fall in Love all Over Again" hint from J-Novel; seems like this could be a fit maybe?

                    Ah well, if it is, I'll cheerfully throw away that vote I made this month.

                      Does someone know what they count has yaoi or yuri series ?
                      Because with how much they take of the survey, i was planing to put Shinsekai yori in one of those to keep spot like surnatural or fantasy open for other the serie. But does it really count as yaoi or yuri, both are present in it but far from being the focus of the story.

                      Do you like death, war and misery ?
                      Do you like badass op loli who let nobody got in their way ?
                      Do you like vengeance story?
                      If so then then vote for The girl who ate a death god

                        I think it's whatever you want to put them in. Some of my picks had multiple genre choices too.

                          I think only things with homosexuality as main plot should count.
                          But they usually leave you to your devices, I guess.

                            I don't think I submitted last month. Better do it early this month.

                            I Will Be the Demon's Mama! How To Train Your Devil!
                            https://bookwalker.jp/debe0cde74-efaa-4dcc-ad94-b0fc0a7ca308/?acode=WpfPW3yk
                            (Seems up their alley with fun Monster / Demon based stuff... I missed the English title on the cover when I submitted, How to Train Your Devil, which is catchy).

                            Yay, it got picked up by Seven Seas!

                                It's really nice seeing someone suggesting one of the titles that I keep mentioning...

                                This month:

                                Novel:
                                Netgame no Yome wa Onna no Ko ja nai to Omotta?
                                Kono Koi to, sono Mirai.

                                Manga:

                                  I only discovered it recently here. I want more romance series, it's short and complete, and LGBT is right up Seven Seas' alley, so it seemed perfect : )

                                    Wanna believe the reason why my threads don't have many votes is that not many people haven't seen it yet lol

                                    I have been bombarding 7seas & here with all various types of romance novels yet getting nothing tbh....

                                      Updated the thread title, also updated the list of novels/manga based on novels that Seven Seas publishes (let me know if I missed any).

                                      My picks for this month:

                                      • Manga
                                        • Darwin's Game

                                      • Light Novel
                                        • Accomplishments of the Duke's Daughter
                                        • Tsuki ga Michibiku Isekai Douchuu (might as well get everyone to take a crack at Alphapolis, maybe they'll crack with enough tries!)

                                      Whoever said nothing's impossible never tried slamming a revolving door.

                                          I meant more like "get all the publishers to bother Alphapolis," but yeah, good on you guys :D

                                            I'm definitely suggesting "Shouraiteki ni Shindekure".

                                            Tanaka-Kun is Listless maybe for that second manga spot. Or "I Live with My Brother's Wife" maybe.

                                            Now to peruse that light novel wishlist (or make another "Sakurako-san" suggestion).
