I loved H & M the anime, so I can easily see myself collecting the manga, as well.

Hakumei to Mikochi! Very happy to hear this. I started the manga but now I think I'll wait for these releases. I need to feel those pages.

Was only saying earlier today that I hope someone licenses the Hakumei & Mikochi manga, so I'm thrilled. Definite purchase from me.

I was hoping they would get Hakata Tonkotsu Ramens novels. Oh well maybe next time.

Do You Like Your Mom sounds like a fun comedy isekai. The sales numbers for the first volume are good though whether it will get an anime will depend on whether those numbers stay good for later volumes.

The super human highschoolers is one of the best over the top ridiculous isekai popcorn manga I've read recently. Definitely buying it.

The Hakumei and Mikochi manga is the clear winner on this list. Loved the anime! Must get the manga when available and the anime if it gets licensed for NA.

I've been reading the Hakumei and Mikochi manga for about 2 years now, and I thought I'd never see the day that it would get an anime or an English release, so to get both makes me happy. It's a definite pre-order from me Very Happy
And the Do you like your mom? light novel is actually a pretty fun read, the main character actually isn't dense for once. I'll buy it once it comes out
Chip's school road is probably one of the best comedy manga I've read, I'm so glad it's getting an English release. One of my favorite parts about it are the volume covers, I love covers that show a random scene from their manga.
I hope they pick up the Hakata Tonkotsu Ramens light novel soon, I loved the anime[/i]

While I’m disappointed with the announcement of only one light novel coming out of this panel, the fact that it’s from the Fujimi Fantasia Bunko imprint makes up for it.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe this is the first light novel that Yen Press has licensed from Kadokawa’s Fujimi Fantasia line. I know Seven Seas will be releasing the True Tenchi Muyo light novels, which are also from the same imprint. This just gives me hope that we could potentially get some long requested series in the future.

Just because Yen Press acquires a license does not mean they will actually
publish anything. They hold license to Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei and
have published just 3 of the 25 volumes. And that is just one example.
They are the patient trolls of the publishing world. They snap up licenses
so that they shut down fan based translations and sue them if there is money
to be had. So basically if Yen Press get the license you can more than likely
kiss it goodbye.

Stop spreading misinformation. Volume 7 just came out on Tuesday -- I've got a copy sitting next to me. They've been releasing a volume every three to four months steadily for two years now. Yen has never dropped an LN series, even ones that flopped.
