All right!!!
 I was so hoping one of the manga publishing companies picked up one of the Little Witch Academia manga! So I see they picked the one that was illustrated by Satou Keisuke, the one that is more similar to the anime. Now if only Yen Press or another manga publishing company picked up the one illustrated by Teri Tonrio. Also, I wonder when is Yen Press planning to release the manga. I know its going to be next year, but I would like to know so I can preorder.
Agreed! On another note I should get back into Fruits Basket. I didn't know there was a sequel to the story. Also, I was not aware there was a Star Wars manga from Japan, but I am not surprise. I was only familiar with the one from Webtoons (although I have not read it). Last edited by Aquasakura on Sat Nov 18, 2017 11:59 pm; edited 1 time in total |

It's a "next generation" story, ala Boruto or Legend of Korra. |

Anyone know of an easy way to track official English-translated light novels, it's starting to be a tad hard to keep everything in memory on that front...

I went to AnimeNYC and have to say that Yen Press had the best panel, announcing new licensing, physically showing off Pandora Hearts Collection, giving away a free manga or light novel to every person in attendance. The other company panels just seem like rehash of what we already knew espicially the anime companies.

They were giving out free manga?! Cool! Now I wish I was there. I know this is the first AnimeNYC, and it would had been awesome to have been there (even though I don't care for visiting NYC that much).

They give out free books at Sakura-Con, too. One of the reasons there's such a huge line to get in every year.

Wow, I see. I guess if I ever attend one of Yen Press' conferences I need to make sure I arrive early.

www.englishlightnovels.com is a fan-run site that compiles novels licensed for english release, links to pre-order sites(some... like I said, it's fan-run by like 2 people so sometimes it takes a while to get updated), and reviews occasionally.
This is pure speculation, but it's unlikely to happen at this point in time. The japanese label, Fujimi Fantasia, has not licensed out ANY of their novels since the whole Tokyopop collapse. It's a shame, too. They have a lot of titles that fans want released here like High School DxD, Amagi Brilliant Park, Date A Live, Full Metal Panic, SaeKano, Gamers!, etc. Last edited by brynhild on Sun Nov 19, 2017 4:46 am; edited 1 time in total |

Another thing is when a LN gets said license and popular fan-translation site Baka Tsuki has to remove the fan trans. |

Yen Press need to clarigy which LWA manga they have, since the slide they showed has the artwork from a different artist to the one named.

Vol. 1 has been solicited with the artist name now Keisuke Sato which matches the other details (their presentation said Terio Teri) |
