Hello all,
I'd like to suggest the light novel series "Kore wa Zonbi Desu ka?" (Is This a Zombie?) written by Shinichi Kimura as a potential project to pick up. 

The light novel was originally written from 2009 - 2015 and has received an anime adaptation with 2 seasons + a manga (licensed). There are currently 19 light novel volumes, 7 of which have already been fully translated by the group NanoDesu, though they seem to no longer be operating (Last update was 11/6/16). 

The synopsis is the following:
Ayumu Aikawa is a zombie resurrected by a necromancer named Eucliwood Hellscythe after being killed by a serial killer. As he tries to make the best of his undead life, he encounters a Masō-Shōjo (魔装少女?, lit. Magical Garment Girl, a pun on “mahō shōjo”, magical girl) named Haruna and inadvertently takes her magic powers, being forced to become a Masō-Shōjo (and thereby crossdress) in the process.
With Eucliwood, Haruna, and a vampire ninja named Seraphim living with him, Ayumu helps battle demons known as Megalos while trying to figure out the mystery behind his own death.
(From Wiki)

If I had to compare it to something, it'd be kinda along the same lines of Baka No Test & Grand Blue. The series focuses on its unique comedy and the anime was/is pretty popular. 

After recently rewatching the anime, I found that it was a shame that the rest of the series past volume 7 still wasn't available in english, especially since the anime only covered the first 7 volumes. Its a somewhat older series, but due to the popularity of the anime I do think there'd be quite a few people interested in what happens next.
It should be noted that there is already a page setup for the novel on Baka-Tsuki.

Thanks!



::I was about to say there's already a page for it. Have you tried inquiring with Nano on the status of the project? Also, as the manga has already been released by Yen Press, it would not hurt probing them about doing the light novel... --[[User:RS|RS]] (<span style="white-space: nowrap; position: relative;"><span style="position: absolute; font-size: .8em; top: -11px; left: 50%; white-space: nowrap; letter-spacing: normal; color: inherit; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit;"><span style="position: relative; left: -50%;">[[User talk:RS|talk]]</span></span><span style="display: inline-block; color: inherit; letter-spacing: normal; font-size: 1.0em; font-weight: inherit;"><small>[https://discord.gg/bakatsuki discord]</small></span></span>) 05:44, 1 January 2021 (CET)
