So — which ones are you looking forward to? 💭 Are there any here whose novels you’ve already read, or any you’d tell me to read before the anime starts? And did I miss one you’re excited about — some of these are still listed under web novels rather than light novels, so I may have been too strict!

Mmm… I shall be waiting eagerly by the bookshelf for your thoughts! Eheheh~
