Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear [Licensed by Seven Seas Entertainment]

I saw that this was in the locked list suggestions before this new voting system was implemented. I'd like to see this licensed by J-Novel if possible. Not sure about publishers or anything so if it can't happen then please lock and ignore. I've really liked reading it and thought others might enjoy it as well.
Title: Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear (くま クマ 熊 ベアー)
Publisher: SHUFU-TO-SEIKATSUSHA, Syosetu
Link to Novel UpdatesSynopsis: Yuna, a 15 years old girl started playing the world’s first VRMMO. She has earned billions of yen in stocks. She confines herself in her house playing the game without going to school. Today, a huge update has arrived. She obtains a non-transferable rare bear outfit. But the equipment is so embarrassing that she can’t wear it even in the game. Furthermore, when she answers the survey regarding the new update and relaunches the game, she appears in an unknown forest in a bear outfit. Where is this? Email from God? Different world? If she wears the bear outfit she’s a cheat, if she takes it off she’s a normal girl. Her adventure starts just like that. Yuna began doing as she liked.

Edit: Updated Title to match Source (05/2019) Still hoping it gets licensed

Heh, reminds me of Aoba's game in the second season of New Game!
-
I want this!

I support this suggestion. I've been reading the manga on (another site I that is probably against the rules to link here) and this seems like a fun story to read. Yes, it's an overpowered MC in a RPG-like fantasy world isekai story, but yet it still does things different enough to seem fresh.
The publisher is a bit odd though... seems to be specialized in magazines mostly but also publishes a few LN. Hopefully that makes thing easier, not harder to license.

@dystania When I saw title.......INSTANT UPVOTE!!!!!!!
-
@ghdpro
They are female-oriented publisher -
Would be great to have this series licensed! We need more cute SOL LN's in English!
-
@theredjet The literal Japanese name is romanized as "Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear", but you're really losing the joke of the name by romanizing it, which is that Kuma is written three ways (くま = kuma, クマ = kuma, 熊 = kuma, ベアー = beā)
Maybe in English, the equivalent would be "Ursidae Ursinae Ursine Bear" or even just repeat it in different languages and have "Kuma Oso Ursa Bear"

@guspaz How about bear Bär bære 🐻? (English, German, Danish, Emoji)
-
@petelgeuse and its illustrated by 029 who did illustrations for The Devil is a Part-Timer....that´s PLUS!!! for me :D
-
@guspaz how about The Bears Bear a Bare Kuma :D
-
@theredjet Like the "official translation".
This LN has my upvote. Damn I love this kinda Slice of Life.
"I don't want to stand out"
"Says the one in a bear custome!" -
the manga for this is great and i hope to be able to read the LN
-
@starbound The LN is better. As always they leave parts ou that make it even more interesting. Although I must admit that this is one of the better manga adaption. Except Finas eyes. Man what did the drawer thing? They look like she is either blind or dead inside.
-
I just had a look at the manga and had a good laugh. I'd definitely like this to be picked up, more comedy is always welcome :D
I think I'll take a look at the WN fan-translation too later on.
-
@saskir thats good to hear, hopefully they get it soon, i might check amazon to see if they have it
-
I finally got around to checking the WN translation. As the others have already said, it's a nice (comedy) SOL and I'd definitely like to see it licensed. There aren't that many LNs with female protagonists, either.
-
Love the WN , been following the fan translation for quite awhile. It is really cute I am sure people would like. She makes friends with so many hard working girls, and her attituted to life is so laid back and easy going that gives this LN a very relaxing feel good effect
-
Just noticed that volume 11 comes out next Friday (30 Nov 2018).
The LNDB page for it still lists only 9 volumes though: http://lndb.info/light_novel/Kuma_Kuma_Kuma_Bear

I'll give the LNDB page an update later.
