      @Timmaaah I saw that blog entry but I just read it quickly skipping things. Guess I'll give it another read. Thanks for the heads up.

        @Jon-Mitchell While they aren't planning on picking up any new VNs (other than maybe sequels), they might still be wanting to do Chinese translations of their existing VNs.

          Is there even a point for publishing JP to CN translations?
          From my understanding there are already a lot of Chinese Publishers that do a JP to CN translation of any VN/LN material.

          Do they want to enter the Chinese market now even though there are already a lot of them compared to the English speaking market wherein they themselves are failing to produce results?

          1st - Rokujouma
          2nd - Realist Hero
          3rd - Bookworm

              @GodsGoldenPubes Oh, it's the same one from a week ago. I got my hopes up. I shouldn't get my hopes up.

                @GodsGoldenPubes Scroll up a bit, I believe we already discussed that one a couple weeks ago.

                    Taking their previous responses at face value that the JP side "allowed" them to release it, so we can look forward to them working together to release more beyond 4 hopefully.

                    So now we just wait for...?

                    80K V2 (Manga and LN?)
                    Busy Wizard 2 (if that's a thing?)
                    Harem Royale 2

                      Just got email from SOL shop

                      Hey everyone! We've updated the ePub file for Chivalry of a Failed Knight Vol. 1. Please redownload the file to get the most up-to-date version of this book. Thank you!

                      From what I can see, they updated images to higher resolution: 2200/1100Ρ…1700 for color, 1100Ρ…1700 for b&w.

                          @Rahul-Balaggan You've got the cover for the second tweet wrong (Volume 2's cover instead of 3) πŸ˜‹

                          I'm glad to see more volumes come out so quickly (finally!) but still nothing for 80k Gold... :(

                            @Rahul-Balaggan :: shock :: those are quick follow-ups. Demon Lord 1-2 were fun, a little like JNC's Elf Bride though the characters are less awkward when it comes to romance.

                            However, next Friday we'll be at 14 months of waiting for 80,000 Gold 2.

                                I have to admit, though, I'd be a lot more impressed if they were doing this for 80k Gold too.

                                  @Nosgoroth me too, though I suspect now the delay on 80k has to do with publishing it is tied to physical editions needing to be available

                                    Yeah they have also been adding volume one of 80,000 Gold to Ibooks "soon" for those entire 14 months.

                                          Lol! Yup! Guess I did. But give me a break. I had just woken up when I did that.πŸ˜πŸ˜‹

                                          But it got people commenting again so it's not all bad I guess.

                                            @LegitPancake - it's Sol Press, a two month wait is nothing ;)

                                            They've stopped even mentioning 80,000 Gold in blog posts, so maybe we'll get volume 2 in 2021?
