Unfortunately this is not surprising, I read multiple of their LNs and all of them have had years between releases, if any at all, I hope other localizers could pick them up.

This is a bummer but not surprising considering the production issues.

I remember ordering from them and getting not only the wrong book but another book that was in Spanish instead of English when I purchased the English version.

I'm curious who will pick up their licenses though, I was enjoying their series.

Well sad they had to shutdown as times went hard, but its almost not surprising as they didn't have any huge big hits after publishing many years.

Such a sad end. I remember interviewing and promoting Tentai for a Light Novel podcast years ago when they first launched. A shame they didn't last too long. Sucks that the series of theirs I own arent even that long yet I wont likely have the full collections.
