      Oh god, two new arifureta spin-offs of all things. Maybe I gave SS too much credit...

          Gotta hurry to capitalize on dat anime. I always get depressed after realising high popular arifureta is.

                    It's somewhat funny, sad and weird that I have hundreds of titles (manga & novels) I wanna see licensed (put together in .txt files or S notes documents) yet none of the last 20+ announcements managed to hit even one.

                      @bloodygaikotsu I feel for you, when JNC was literally 1 month old I started begging for a food related novel, took over 2 years but I finally got Cooling with Wild Game.

                      It might take longer then 2 years but hopefully some day you will be able to starting ticking off those Novels you want.

                        With 8 outta 18 of titles in 1st page of licenses suggestions are of my liking, I thought my tastes ain't so outta there as I initially thought...but I was duped lol

                        Actually, the only company that hits my strike spot every time is Vertical (but they don't have that many slots).
                        I never was disappointed in Vertical license (but disappointed they do not release enough)

                          The thing that baffles me about the last announcement by Seven Seas is they said in a post that it has been something anticipated by people for 10 years and largely requested. I've never even heard of the series. Mind you I don't read BL so guess that would be why, but seriously? lol

                              @BloodyGaikotsu Ah okay thanks for the heads up. Kind of funny how that other guy said it in the same way I did.

                                BL not for me. I guess I'm happy for those that want it though, but yeah...

                                I actually really liked half of day 1's licenses, but these did nothing for me (I'm happy for Arifureta fans too). If the ghost one is actually scary / creepy, let me know.

                                I'm hoping the last day is where they're saving their light novel announcements.

                                  I don't think it will be creepy, it seems like emotional, world is beautiful, value people near you type of stories.
                                  That's my impression from the synopsis and the cover.

                                    They said most of these will release early, but then some like the Sword Dad series would not get a physical copy until August this year which is quite a while for just 1 volume. Does anyone happen to know how long they generally take for digital releases..or if they even do digital

                                      They do digital. They have a whole page dedicated to early digital.

                                      "Early" still takes months. =/

                                      You're probably looking at May for Sword Reincarnation. Of course, I'm just guessing.

                                        @Terrence Thats really disappointing..ah well. I've read the WN so I'd have to wait either way to get to a point where the content is new anyhow.

                                          I was curious about the actual number so I just combined 2 lists of mine and got 409 (didn't dare to add the rest...)

                                          279 Novels
