        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?

                        @terrence said in Seven Seas - November/December 2019 survey available!:

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

                        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)
                            Fantasy or Isekai LN: Maoyuu Maou Yuusha - by Mamare Touno (Log Horizon)
                            Comedy, Drama or SoL manga: The Comic Artist and His Assistants - by Hiroyuki (Aho-Girl)
                            Comedy, Drama or SoL LN: Oda Nobuna no Yabou
                            Action, Horror or Supernatural manga: Majin Tantei Nougami Neuro - by Yusei Matsui (Assassination Classroom)
                            Action, Horror or Supernatural LN: Shakugan no Shana
                            Ecchi or Fan-service manga: Inumimi
                            Ecchi or Fan-service LN: Lord Marksman and Vanadis
                            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.

                              Just gonna say, y'all might want to wait until after JNC announces their licenses at Anime NYC before making survey submissions.

                                I mean, it's not like I'm actually expecting SS to get those or anything.
                                If JNC does end up getting something from my list, well, there will be other surveys next year.

                                  It's definitely smarter to wait, especially since the survey lasts through December, but I'm probably not going to wait this time.

                                  Especially not going to hold my breath on seeing if any horror or real world drama stuff gets announced by JNC or others later this month. T_T

                                  Stuff like Ideal Sponger Life, Shield Heroine, or Alderamin I might regret requesting if they show up later.

                                      I guess I won't be putting Record of Lodoss War under the classic category this year. Now I need to choose between Heroic Legend of Arslan or Twelve Kingdoms. I'll have to do some research into BL novels before I decide on one. As for yuri, I didn't fill that category out last year since I didn't read the genre, but I've been enjoying Sexiled and Otherside Picnic, so after looking around I think I'll go with Murasakiiro no Qualia. Not only does it sound interesting, it's also only one volume and is a sci-fi/mystery like Otherside Picnic, which we could use more of.

                                      I'll wait until after Anime NYC to fill out the survey though, just in case.

                                        @hyperion Murasakiiro no Qualia is really great, my friend recommended that to me because of how the genre (sci-fi) is in the same level of Otherside Picnic 😅

                                        Waiting for the announcements as well before getting on to that survey 👀

                                          The yuri/BL/LGBT categories take way too much place, especially since it's rarely the most important part of a book, having more precise category for horror/action/surnatural/comedy/... would have been way more useful.
                                          That aside:

                                          • Yuri LN: Do you think someone like you can defeat the demon lord
                                          • BL LN: Shinsekai yori
                                          • LGBT LN: Qualia the purple
                                          • fantasy/isekai LN: The girl who ate a death god
                                          • Comedy LN: Kono Sekai ga Game da to Ore dake ga Shitte Iru Vo
                                          • Surnatural/action manga and LN: Kara no Kyoukai
                                          • Drama manga: Ill boy ill girl
                                          • Ecchi LN: Sevens
                                          • Ecchi Manga: Medaka box

                                          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
