    Some interesting ones in here:

    • Alya LNs - I am surprised these weren’t already licensed. The manga has been fairly popular I believe. The anime’s popularity probably helped motivate them a bit more.
    • Isekai Samurai Manga - This one is a lot of fun. I have been following on Mangadex (a couple chapters behind right now). The MC is like the anti-Kenshin in that she is a rurouni samurai that is absolutely battle-crazy. She is constantly on a quest to find something strong enough to defeat her so that she can die in battle. Then she gets isekai’ed…and hijinks ensue. I think @PrincessKadath@ani.social is probably more up to date than I am.
    • The Heroic Tale of the Villainous Prince Manga - Another one I have been following on Mangadex (up to date with this one). I have enjoyed it despite it not being groundbreaking in any way. Basically some guy acts like a jerk while trying to solve his country’s problems behind the scenes so that his brother (the heir to the throne) looks good.
    • Who Killed the Hero? LN - I remember NineSwords predicting ages ago when Frieren was airing, that there would be a glut of stories that follow a hero’s party after the Demon King has been defeated. The synopsis makes it sound like a crime drama more than anything else though.
    • Sailor Zombie Manga - Zombie Land Saga, but instead of idols, make them Sailor Scouts!
    • The Eminence in Shadow Audiobook - It was inevitable. The property is pretty popular across all three mediums as well as a mobile game and two separate spinoff manga. The gears of industry demanded more ways to make money off of this series. The irony of course is that all of these projects are taking time away from the author writing LN7, which cannot come soon enough. Last time I saw an interview with them, they were working on story for the mobile game/Seven Shadows Chronicles manga instead.
