Yen Press has just licensed The Misfortune of Kyon & Koizumi, a collection of short stories drawn by various mangaka. It was originally released on December 26, 2009 by Kadokawa.
While I am extremely happy to see this collection licensed, it brings some sad news from me. I was planning to translate this, and the other three collections by Kadokawa since they seemed highly unlikely to be licensed. Now... not quite sure they won't be licensed anymore. Edit: 10th novel licensed.

Edit: Wait, I thought this meant the 16th Light Novel rather than the manga. Never mind. |

Hachette Book Group's database is listing a release date of September 4 for the first 7 novels in e-book format. The 7th novel is listed on Amazon in Kindle format for a June 1 release, but this is the first listing for all novels in e-book format. The release of novel 8, Indignation, will also have a simultaneous e-book release as well.

The hardcover art uses the original illustration by Itou, but to appeal to Western fans, they re-designed covers for the paperback versions to match the other "young adult" books they're supposed to be organized with. The cover art and binding is literally the only difference between the two. The pages inside are exactly the same. It's just a matter of preference on binding and cover art for your choice.

In other news, a new article released today mentioned that the amount of Haruhi Suzumiya novels printed rose to 8.5 million copies. That gives each volume an average of 772,727 copies printed. With only the first novel having a million printed, that's a good number of people who bought each novel. Yen Press has solicited the 14th volume of the manga to be released on December 11. The 6th Eng. volume of Haruhi-chan will be released on the same day as Indignation, November 20.

Nothing has been stated regarding the third Haruhi theatre story. The magazine that they were published in stopped publication last year, so it would be published in a collection of stories or via a digital distribution format. Regardless, nothing's been stated regarding that story.

A real shame, too. While largely unrelated(except for a reference or two in SMS), they were two of the most fun stories Tanigawa has written for the series. Ah well, I guess he just can't think of what to do after Cowboy Land...

A bit late noticing this, but Kadokawa's Sneaker twitter has confirmed something I've been saying for a while back in April.
