* NetworkToTheRescue: The state of the English license of the light novels was uncertain for over two years after Sol Press's business license was suspended by the state of California mid-2021. It took several months for the Japanese publisher, SB Creative, to realize Sol was no longer an active business entity (and even that was only thanks to the president of Creator/JNovelClub mentioning their demise during a routine conference call) and begin the process to remove the licensed translations from online vendors. And due to the series having gotten far enough in release (5 volumes out), the financial odds of doing a rerelease didn't look good since the overwhelming majority of light novels make their sales in the first few volumes. In spite of all these considerable obstacles, J-Novel Club announced they had rescued the license to the series on November 17, 2023, after over a year and a half of the series hanging in limbo.
