      @Sam-Pinansky ahh, ok. Yeah, I could see how it could be maybe turn out to be a bit too edgy and melodramatic. The ridiculousness looks like it could be fun, maybe somewhere down the road it might be worth looking into.

        Ok. When will we get the answer? We waited long enough, I think.

        It'd better be 100yen shop and realist hero's kingdom.

                  I for one am hoping that we're going to see some new license distributors whether it'd be from Kadokawas' own bunkos or if KyoAni was interested in planning out a deal for some of their own unlicensed published light novel series.

                  Either way, I am super excited. But I am also wary that it might not be licenses and something else instead. Either way, positive news about J-novel always gets' me going and I am looking forward to whatever it is.

                  Also, I was surprised when I saw that in Steiner's portfolio. But I never say no to possibly more Steiner translations. Definitely not!

                    Well, I will be happy for Rakudai license, but I guess that I want too much.

                        I'd love for another print run announcement with Seven Seas (Smartphone is getting an anime...).

                        However, the way the tweet is presented makes me think that they've made a deal with another publisher. Looking forward to whatever the announcement ends up being.

                          I just realized the announcement might not be anything, considering it's going to be on April Fools possibly. Welp we took the bait. Haha!

                            Edit: Did you post their latest Tweet in response to a reviewer on Twitter?

                            "I advise if you're announcing anything big to NOT do it on April 1st,. for obvious reasons. :)"

                            "Yes, anything we'd announce on April 1st would have to be really special."

                            Hmm... We've been had? xD

                                  @Sam-Pinansky said in Speculation thread regarding new Aquisitions [POSSIBLY 3 NEW TITLES HINTED, TIME FOR SPECULATION!]:

                                  That was something special.... I don't know MLP well at all so some of the jokes went over my head. That last scene got a chuckle though!

                                      I should've known, man preemptive April Fools are way worse than ones that happen on the day!

                                      Oh well, still got to look forward to whether or not those two other tentative titles happen.

                                            All I can think about is that they must be interesting titles if Steiner is potentially involved. Other than that since Sam is so convinced we'd be surprised about these titles. I guess there'll be a new title from a new bunko/anime related/or heavily requested one from HJ/Overlap.
