But ain't Yen press exclusive distributor for Square Enix?

I sure hope not. I want The Comic Artist and His Assistants in print and I want it bad.
Don't see Yen picking that one up...

In terms of manga and light novels, I simply requested:

"Tsugumomo" It's perfect to be under the Ghost Ship label :3

"Komi-san wa Komyushou Desu." Another manga series that I want to see licensed. Seeing how Seven Seas can pick up

"Mushoku Tensei" Seeing how Aruseus keeps requesting it in the survey, I figured I might as well do so too XD

"Is It Tough Being A Friend?" One of the romcom LN series that I want to see get picked up so badly.

"Butsuriteki ni Koritsu shiteiru Ore no Koukou Seikatsu" Also a romcom LN series, I do like the artstyle of it.

"Tsugumomo" is pretty much perfect for Seven Seas since they do license a lot of ecchi/borderline H, and now that there's a Ghost Ship label, it perfectly fits into that category

For the light novels, I went with old requests. The manga, I went with one that I think hasn't been licensed despite having an anime, and then one that is more recent.

I Live With My Brother's Wife.

Attacking the Dungeon With My Beautiful Boss is Overtime Work? (LN)

Good Luck Girl!

White Album 2. (LN)

Good Luck Girl!

I would looooooove to get this in English, unfortunately I believe it's firmly in VIZ's territory seeing that it was a Jump title and everything else in that magazine being published in English was picked up by VIZ. Granted, Seven Seas getting TLR and Yuuna-san means it's not completely off the table, but I would imagine that, since VIZ is already putting out Twin Star Exorcists by the same author, it might simply be off-limits.

@myskaros hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

This does actually relate to a random comment I said in the past on twitter, is Viz media still interested in new manga.

The seem to be focusing less and less on manga and more on American comics, games, and anime over the last year or so.

And ever since that happened 7S has been picking up the slack, I can only imagine that internally they are shifting and that allowed 7S to make some deals because the parent companies know that Viz is shifting business strategies

myskaros

@rahul-balaggan VIZ did pick up Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai, Maou-jou de Oyasumi, Kimetsu no Yaiba, and Kanata no Astra, all releasing this year, so I would say I do not agree with that speculation. I can't speak to whether the amount of pick-up titles is fewer than they were before, though, but they've never been in the ecchi side of manga, so 7S getting those isn't as surprising as it would be if they get Binbougami-ga, which is more of a mainstream action/comedy similar to Gintama or JoJo.

LostBust

Now that the May Survey is out I'll go ahead and post what I chose for this months survey(sorry might be doing something wrong am New to this kind of thing!) .
Manga-
1.)Oroka na Tenshi wa Akuma to Odoru
2.)Futaba san no Kyoudai
Light Novels-
1.)Tensei Shitara Ken Deshita
2.)Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear
If your curious as to what these titles are just look them up on Baka updates there actually pretty Interesting Series!

Terrence

Whoa, May survey already out?!

I gotta go through my list. I got a bunch that interest me. I think one of those "I got Isekai'd and I have to lose weight" novels I want. Maybe that 'I'm the Daughter of a Family With Evil Faces, so People Think We're Nefarious' novel too.

Death Game manga / novels I think I want too. Hmmm...

myskaros

I would love for 7S to give some kind of reaction or feedback or something to give us some kind of indication of what titles they want, or don't want, or anything really O_o I'm just not sure if it's better to keep submitting the same titles or to switch it up.

Anyway, I went with 75% consistency, 25% random spice:

Manga: Darwin's Game, Iris Zero
LN: Tsuki ga Michibiku Isekai Douchuu, Konjiki no Moji Tsukai

Terrence

I got my two LN:

Leg Mimic (treasure chest reincarnation)
Execution Tarot (Escape Game)

Manga (maybes for now):
When the notice of the end of the love harem game comes

And maybe "Appli Trap" or one of the other class game type manga.

BloodyGaikotsu

I usually change titles every month
Well, we won't get any results outta the survey till they announce their new licenses (probably in a summer con like Anime Expo)

I went with
Manga:
Getsuyoubi no Tomodachi
alt text
It's award-winning, 2-volume manga that ranked #4 on Kono Manga ga sugoi 2018
Learned about it here:

My other manga entry was Love Lab
Man, I really love this series and Ruri Miyahara work in general~

For novels, I went with:
-Gamers!
-Gate: Jieitai Kanochi nite, Kaku Tatakaeri

DoubleMangekyo

This time I went with Imouto wa Shishunki. It's 10 volumes long, by the author of Seitokai Yakuindomo.

Rootbeermaster

for the light novel's I went with

Kakuriyo no Yadomeshi

and

Fairy Tale Chronicle -Kuuki Yomanai Isekai Life

and I never know what to put for the manga, I have to many to read already and I am kind of trying to cut back on manga & comics for more light novels.

but I went with Beatless and Working!!! this time, Beatless since the light novel might be in licensing hell, like Aria The Scarlet Ammo.

The Working Anime Always kills me since my friends and I like to eat at I-Hop or Denny's on the weekend.

Terrence

Don't forget to get your requests in guys...

I still haven't done mine yet. xC

Edit: Done. It was basically what I posted above, I just added the 41 year old and his family Isekai title to my requests.

Theo
