      I've got still quite a few series I want to read. Time to count all the volumes out for them (in Japan) and buy those credits and some more as reserve then...

        Of course, I just bought 6 credits a few hours ago.
        I'll just have to buy some more at the sale price now.

              Also relevant to this thread:

              J-Novel Club (@jnovelclub) Tweeted:

              Now that you are licensing Manga, do you think that the number of LN license in 2019 will drop compared to 2018? or you…

              We'll definitely put out more LN in 2019 than we did in 2018.

                @terrence I'm wondering, the question was about licences, but the answer seemed to be about volumes, or am i just reading to much into the wording of it...

                  @timmaaah Well as each title gets closer and closer to the Japanese release, they'll eventually catch up.

                  The translators/new translators may be assigned to work on new titles and return whenever a new volume gets released, which depending on the title could mean 2-4 a year.

                  This means there will be more and more volumes being released until a title is completely finished.

                    It definitely reads like "more volumes" to me, not necessarily "more licenses" than 2018. But, either way, it's probably a good sign that we'll be getting more volumes again this year (I'm sure there will be a few series that will wrap or we'll catch up to that they'll need to replace). =)

                      @terabyte I really should read the posts more carefully... I just went to share the original posts offers on social media...

                      Glad to see the trial offer isn’t a fake out however.

                        It reads more open ended to me... more like more volumes overall, whether it’s the same catelog or adding in multiple licenses...

                          I'll spoiler tag those so they aren't showing as current, sorry.

                                Hope J-Novel keeps picking up more and more novel. I just completed my 50th Novel yesterday from JNC :)

                                    Made calculations for the next 12 months. Let's see, Rokujouma is going to catch up in a few months, so that alone will be 13+ credits. No monthly Isekai Mahou on the other hand, and who knows if there will be another licensed fantranslation next year. The non-monthly series are more manageable at least.

                                    Oh well, ended up buying a bunch of credits. Sam, use my money wisely!

                                    Quof got a break.
                                    WHAT'S THE STORY WITH THAT FREAKING BLACK DRAGON?!

                                      I had a bunch of Kindle books from before my membership that I needed to repurchase as well as several I was behind on, so now seemed like the time to do it. Ended up buying 40 credits but they were all gone in a flash. Oh well, now I can look forward to reading all the short stories I missed out on previously.

                                      Maybe next year I can actually buy them for future releases like everyone else!

                                        I got 5 credits as an early XMas present and felt guilty, lol. T_T

                                        At least I can get a few Google Books without spending anything (got Beast Head, probably getting Kokoro Connect, looking for stuff that doesn't have short story benefits I'd be missing).

                                          I went to buy a stack of credits, but I'm showing a price of $0 and the button is disabled.

                                          I logged out and logged back in again, still disabled.

                                          Please, take my cash monies!
