So... Did the Yen PR team mess up in announcing that Higashino work on Twitter too early or was there a typo in the announcement or something? Tweet is supposedly gone without a trace now.

Early April Fool's joke gone wrong? xD

...

T_T

It still is listed on their site, so...

The movie was a real tear jerker; I did enjoy it and felt very positive after watching.

@hyperion dissapointed

@theredjet
What were u expecting?

Terrence · Mar 14, 2019, 1:30 AM

^ I expected almost nothing, and got Zaregoto 3. So I'm happy.

I know nothing about Seraph, but I guess that's a sequel series? I... Shouldn't say I'll check it out since I got enough on my plate.

So when is AX? I'm guessing we won't get much announced before then from any pubs (someone said Seven Seas was teasing something a bit ago though on social media? They are doing their giveaway that they promised as well now).

@terrence Sakuracon is next month, JNC will be there.

They mentioned both the giveaway and the fact that they will announce stuff on March, the 1st when they explained more about survey and stuff.
Well, they also said they usually announce new stuff every 2-3 months so yeah~

@myskaros
We will finally know what the 5th and 4th titles are?

myskaros · Mar 14, 2019, 4:56 AM

@bloodygaikotsu I will post on Discord as soon as I find out. Unless the Code Geass movie is showing at the same time, then... I might have to make a tough decision :X

Aruseus493 · Mar 14, 2019, 6:15 AM

@myskaros I'm worried about the same thing. We should link our senses and separate. I typically post via reddit from panels so it isn't discord.

sniper_samurai · Mar 14, 2019, 11:04 PM

2 new hints just went up on twitter. 3 new titles imminent.

Over the next 3 days, we'll be announcing 3 new light novels.
Here are some hints (one recycled):
"It sure isn't stocks!"
"The free shipping is finally worth it."
"For all the book lovers out there."

Stay tuned!

I'd say the 3rd is Ascendance of a Bookworm.

novurdim · Mar 14, 2019, 11:39 PM

Well, if the third isn't a Bookworm then Sam is quite a fabulous troll.

TheRedJet · Mar 14, 2019, 11:42 PM

@novurdim he just gave away the 3rd one aka Ascendance of a Bookworm

DTTA · Mar 15, 2019, 9:14 AM

Did he verify it? It could also be the bookstore one, which would also be kinda great, either way. :) I'm hoping for Ascendance though, as the translator stopped a while back.

catstorm · Mar 15, 2019, 12:09 AM

Oh man I hope it’s ascendance it would be a pretty big troll if it’s not

hansolo1300 · Mar 15, 2019, 1:18 AM

Free shipping could be several different ones. Whichever it is I'll be happy though!

Nosgoroth · Mar 15, 2019, 7:51 AM

Seven Seas will announce some stuff today/tomorrow, it seems.

cimmadif · Mar 15, 2019, 8:27 AM

The third could be Tatakau Shisho aka Armed Librarians aka Book of Bantorra.
