They have not actually printed translated or even sought to renew the license which to my knowledge may even be simply for Novel 1 and 2 -_- So its not really raining on any parade as they openly state despite any new anime interest they only have 1 and 2 .. maybe they may renew their efforts I honestly doubt it though. Tokyopop and SevenS, are where light novels go to be forgotten.
http://www.tokyopop.com/TPHenshu/tp_art ... 70053.html ~ source ~took them from apr 2008 to late march 2010 to get 2 out with no intentions at 3. That buzz they speak of; are the e-mails people like myself have sent in asking. (Though I have sent many for many novels over many years. Been nagging them since dec. 2008 on GoSick) And I do own them both.Gosick is even more complicated—it’s also terrific, but we did books 1 & 2 long before the anime was released, so it had almost zero fan awareness, and performed accordingly. It’s getting a lot of buzz now, so it seems like a great time for a relaunch, but unfortunately the way book retail works, if you don’t do well the first time, you don’t often get second chance.
Hence why I came to plead lol v_v

Since I just started translating, these kind of novels are hard to convert it in English. It's better to ask a fluent japanese translator.
