      @yami-no-ryuu for a publisher, having a title permanently available to people with a subscription is a bit of a different beast than a time-limited availability. I would bet a substantial portion of the reasoning is because "that's what that novel's Japanese publisher was willing to allow."

              @Rahul-Balaggan seeing some amazing unfinished titles listed under "catalog" makes me sad, and reminds me that the authors never finished them :-(

                @Rahul-Balaggan do partial novels ever get moved to the complete list, eg. The Magician Who Rose From Failure?

                  Hello,

                  Sorry I just don’t have enough historical information to say yes/no to that.

                  The readers membership is entering month 2 now, and we are working on adding more volumes and series to the membership.

                      I understand that new series will be added with time, but the ones that are already here will disappear at some point? Or are they permanent?
                      If they will disappear, there will be a notice? To prioritize what to read...

                        Can we get a permanent link to the Readers Library. Much of the time it on the front page, but it is missing right now.

                            I'd assume we'd figure out next week at the earliest? I wouldn't be surprised if people (or the entire company) took Friday off for a longer weekend considering everything else. :P

                                This was a fun one, I'm sad it ended with one volume.

                                It's the Abilities Average of perfectly normal elder vampire princess stories.

                                (Despite the tag I don't see it as yuri so don't expect to read any.)

                                    I very much got the impression that it was a slow burn yuri (which I really enjoy, relationships work better when people have time to grow closer to each other naturally) but that it got cancelled before it got far enough for the relationship to actually get anywhere.

                                        @memele Similar to Netflix, we at JNC want everything to be available as long as possible, but the ultimate decision rests in the original publishers', authors', and illustrators' hands. As this has to do with licensing, it is possible for us to be asked to remove series from the library without being able to give any notice.

                                        However, these were negotiated thoroughly with all rights holders' understanding of what's going on, so I believe it would be unlikely for that to happen out of the blue. For the purposes of reading priority, there should be no need to choose one series over another for fear of it being removed, and if something does need to be removed in the future, we should be able to give advance notice.

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