Would have preferred the original light novels, but any DP license is good.

Like the sound of My Room Is a Dungeon Rest Stop, but I'm never one to jump into a new manga that is based on a LN. Kinda like the OP, would prefer the LN than the manga. I'm not interested in buying something where I have no guarantee that it'll cover through to the end of the story.

I feel like light novel authors have just completely given up with isekai premises. "What's that? You have the most banal, generic idea ever? Sure, we'll fund it!"

This one sounds relatively unique, actually, if it's set mostly in Japan with a sort of Ah My Goddess / Urusei Yatsura setup. I'd watch an anime of it.

I am glad to learn that the manga adaptation of Dirty Pair will be publish where I live. It's a bid of a shame the manga does not cover the entire story, but I will take what I can get with this series since I like Dirty Pair. I wonder if the manga does well enough Seven Seas will consider sickening and publishing the light novels. Also, I wonder if this will get a digital release as well.

Is that the title of the light novel? It seems to be almost long enough.

Those cover character designs for Dirty Pair are.. a little off putting. I do have those 2 English translated Dirty Pair light novels with YAS' illustrations.. so maybe I need to finally sit down and read those finally.
