No hints this time?

Ooh, 8 PM! Nice to see it scheduled for a time when I won't be working.
-
Wishlist time!!
In anticipation of the livestream here is my wishlist for new series licenses:
To quote @Torka, who I thanks for sharing the existence of this light novel “Thoughts: …do I really need to say it? It’s a light novel about a buff Marie Antoinette. The second volume has her get into a bodybuilding match with Napoleon. How could I NOT recommend this?”
-
The art for Delicious Veranda appeals to me, and I enjoy reading about gardening, so I'd like to read that one someday.
The others look interesting too.
-
Less than an hour to go!
-
Reincarnated as...as....an apple? Is it April again so soon?
I'll give the others a try, but I don't see the a-peel of this one.
Quiz show host: Correct! We also would have accepted "I don't see the apple of this title"
More seriously, new licenses are a good thing even if some of them aren't my cup of ...juice. Or slice of pie with ice cream.
-
Hmm, interested in the manga licenses (more for the release consistency), but nothing really stood out for me on the LN licensing front. I'll give the peddler in another world one a shot but I've been finding the manga on that one to be a bit eh after it pushed through the initial premise so I'm not sure if it's going to be able to keep my interest long term.
-
Sui's Great Adventure (manga)
Rebuild World (manga)I'm in love, thank you guys! My wallet will hate you all though. xD
(Now to wish for Late Start Tamer's manga to get licensed by someone)I'll take a peak at the Reincarnated as an Apple... my curiosity of how long will it take before the apple starts to rot is strong in this.
The rest of the new selection is a maybe.

Didn’t get anything from my wishlist sigh….
Maybe next time

The second post in this topic has been updated with the announcements from today's stream! You can also find this information at various other sources:
-
Neat, three titles in my wishlist and everything else looks interesting enough but I’m most hyped for Making Magic.
Of the light novels that’s 4 isekai, 1 portal fantasy, and 1 rom-com although I won’t deny I was hoping for more Bookworm or Dahlia related titles.
-
@SleepyTexan no Bookworm related titles to announce licenses for though. Fanbook 3 can start at any day JNC choose, and manga part 3 is something they've already said they won't do until part 2 is done.
-
Judging only by the descriptions, I'll try Mythical hero and the introvert x gyaru one.
-
@GeorgeMTO Depends if they think they'll have to make a separate announcement for the Short Story Collections or not. They announced and already released Royal Academy Stories, but we have not heard anything of SSC yet. The previous announcement only talked about RAS, and I don't think we should take that as SSC1 and SSC2 also being licensed. Maybe.
-
@Tube Yeah, but that's not up in the cycle of side books until after Fanbook 3.
