Last year, The Detective Is Already Dead volume 1 came out around the same time as the anime which should've been hype for EN readers... but then it picked up pretty much no traction or critical acclaim... RIP...
I have slight resentment towards the Sabikui Bisco novels because
1) The Japanese in them is harder than your regular LN, which means I have to actually pay attention when I read, and
2) Something happens every page, which, again, means I have to pay attention when I read
Don't play Genshin so I don't have strong feelings about redesigns, but allow me to express mild rage that they would replace the horny tights with a generic zettai ryouiki for this witch girl character. The tights are a vibe! They're unique!
First novel of the New Year. Dug this one out of my backlog (get it???)
The world went gaga over Disney Twisted-Wonderland but completely overlooked the OTHER Disney anime mobage with designs by Air Gear / Bakemonogatari manga artist.

People tend to think of Mushoku Tensei's influence on Narou stories as just the "NEET gets reincarnated" premise but honestly Seirei Gensouki is one of THE biggest MT-inspired stories in terms of its grander narrative structure. The more you think about it, the more you'll see it
Still think Ulquiorra was the best character design to come out of Bleach. That man's vibe was insurpassable

I read Faraway Paladin without being strongly aware of Mushoku Tensei, and it had a powerful impact on me, bringing me to tears.
