    Name: SSS-Class Suicide Hunter

    NU Link: https://www.novelupdates.com/series/sss-class-suicide-hunter/
    Why It Should Get Picked Up: The concept is really cool and from the few chapters that i have read the MC seems good and kind of smart and yeah that's about it.
    Description: Our mc has a really high level skill but the problem is that it only works when he dies one day he accidentally stumbles upon the number 1 hunter of the world which no one knows what skill he has [...] After getting killed by that hunter he gets his Skill which allows him to go back 1 day to the past everytime he is killed but with a stats penalty.

    This novel is currently under negotiations with the rights holders for translation rights.

    A recent website claiming to be in negotiations turned out to be a scam : Pacific Novels. More info here
    Don't hold your breath.
    Cheers!

    The negotiations are still ongoing and unlike Pacific Novels, we are trying to get the licensing agreement completed.
    These talks take time and you probably won't see any update until 2020.
    As for our current novel line up, they have all been authorized by the respective right holder.

    I meant in negotiations for copyright for Korean novels in general.
    Given the recent events, I would be more wary

    Well you outright said they lied when you don't seem to know that, you just suspect it. I don't disagree that we should be wary and there has been some shenanigans but please don't state guesses or estimations as fact.

    Once again, we probably won't make any announcement until we sign the contract with the Korean publishers.
    While readers are waiting for the novel to return, we hope they'll be a bit more patient as the talks can take months to work out.

    I said A recent website and named the website: Pacific Novels. I never said it was the same website that translated this particular novel.
    Anyway, best of luck to everyone involved
    Cheers!

    There aren't any estimates as to when the novel will relaunch.
    Hopefully by 2020.
    If it does get relaunched, we'll most likely do a bulk release up to chapter 21.

    Nice! thought you guys just dropped this, since you mentioned trying to get a license some 8+ months ago! Kudos on your perseverance, I hope you get the license since you were doing a nice job (loved the idea of involving an artist for the skill cards, nice touch). I used to linger on your discord to discuss spoilers on this novel, I went as far as chapter 120 or something like that, before you guys just outright removed the channel xD

    We'll hopefully have more news concerning SSS-class soon. We're also negotiating licenses for a multitude of other novels and we've already successfully acquired 5 KR novels, 3 of which are currently being released. I'm glad you enjoyed our use of art, it was definitely fun to try something a little different than usual, and I think it really took the story to the next level.
