          I fail yet again to see what's the point of licensing a series (GM Logged) which has been on hiatus for 3 years

          Same reason Sam licenses stuff with only a single volume out so far. The license itself is probably cheap.

          I've seen a lot of Micro Magazine titles being licensed lately.

          MicroMagazine is making a big push this year to dump as much of their catalogue as possible onto the western market. (Regardless of publication status) They've gotten a taste of that foreign money from stuff like Tensei Slime and they want more.

            Let This Grieving Soul Retire! Woe is the Weakling Who Leads the Strongest Party

            It's a new series by the author of Defeating the Demon Lord’s a Cinch (If You’ve Got a Ringer) so I'm happy, but SOL Press... Well, at least vol.1 will be this year (probably):

            Currently available for pre-order.
            Available December 28th.

              @Kyon7 so is Defeating the Demon Lord’s a Cinch (If You’ve Got a Ringer) still going to continue or is it a dead series?

                Honestly I don't have an answer to that. But it seems the author is slooooowly writing the next volume on the WN website.

                      Glad to see we're getting Ideal Sponger Life. Love the manga but really eager to dig into the light novel.

                        I'm sooooo happy for Apothecary Diaries. I have been asking and wishing and hoping for it for a long time. I'm also super excited for more rom-coms, and Sponger Life has the politics I've been longing for more of too. All in all, best licensing event for me in a long time. You guys are the best!

                          Great news! I love this series.

                          These two I started reading some time ago but never gone past the beginning, maybe this time will be different.
                          The others I'll check to see if they might be if my liking.

                            But wow is it going to take a few books to catch up to the comic... volume 10 of the comic roughly corresponds to volume 7 of the books...

                              Gonna be reading all of these. Especially the romcoms. Imouza priority number 1.

                              Choppiri (27 yr old JK) one I will likely buy to support getting more from the author as they are a lover of older heroines (Mama Ga Sukinano, Hero and Maid Oneesans one, and Senpai dating one). Nozomi Kota is really good at their craft (good at knowing when to drop a gag, and how much progress to make you feel like you got your monies worth with a book, at least with volume 1 of Mama; I was surprised how much perspective the mom got in that one too, basically most of the book from her point of view).

                                I've got nothing but time. I'm very much looking forward to it.

                                  The manga has been an interesting read, definitely going to be reading this.

                                          I‘m very happy about the Accomplishments of the Duke‘s Daughter license. It will be the only title next to She Professed Herself Pupil of the Wiseman that I will order a physical copy of.

                                            That'll be nice... the comicilization seems to be adapting at a very slow pace...
