      For these surveys how should we format our requests? Copy and paste original kanji/kana, put in a straight romanization, use the english title if another format for it (anime, manga, etc) has been localized, use an unofficial english title if one hasn't, etc?

      License Wishlist: Kino's Journey, Crest/Banner anthology, SukaMoka
      Favorite JNC Series: Bookworm, Faraway Paladin, Dendro, Grimgar, Crest/Banner of the Stars, Tearmoon Empire, Skull Dragon's Precious Daughter, Apothecary Diaries, Otome Heroine's Fight

        Usually, I put in the original kanji plus the romaji if the series doesn't have an English version along with the Japanese title. But if another format (manga, anime) already has given said series an official English title, I use that instead.

          If it's a super obscure title, then the original Japanese title would probably be best. If it's something pretty well-known in the fan community, they probably know about it already so you could just use the romaji.

              If you have any Yuri license suggestions, may want to hold off on them until after Wednesday of next week.

                    Just started. There will be another license announced in mere minutes.

                    Here's the first license announced. Yuri manga that's a period piece.

                        Yay, a non-fantasy, romance light novel! I'll definitely give it a try. It sounds good.

                                      Wow. Didn't they previously tell us to ask for more Boogiepop in surveys?

                                      (It never made any sense to me since buying volumes of the series seemed like a better way to send a message than a survey response, but yeah, I remember them saying something to that effect).

                                      .

                                      Anyone got a list of all the categories for this survey?

                                        Pretty sure they said to buy more Boogiepop.

                                          They said to buy it in later posts, but they also said to request it previously.

                                          "We licensed and released BOOGIEPOP Light Novels 1-6, so our set is complete (for now), but feel free to suggest more licenses--Boogiepop or otherwise--in our monthly survey. This is a similar situation to Lodoss War, where we started with a license for only early volume(s). --LS"

                                            Here's what I ended up submitting:

                                            Fantasy or Isekai manga: Magdala de Nemure - 4-volume adaptation of a LN by Isuna Hasekura (Spice & Wolf)

                                            Action, Horror or Supernatural LN: Shakugan no Shana

                                            Classic manga: Shaman King - started in '98, so it counts. Kodansha isn't doing anything with it and I want the Kanzenban edition.
                                            Classic LN: none... - I almost put in Slayers, but it's too long and I'd rather JNC get it.

                                            Nothing for Yuri/Yaoi/LGBT cause I just don't care about those.
