Intriguing SFF Works Awaiting English Translations

I need to learn Polish so I can read all of Stansław Lem's untranslated sf.

Top of my list for works I'd like to see translated from Japanese is the Kino no Tabi series. The author seems to like playing off of other people's settings, including Western sf, so I like to think it might be a little more accessible to Western readers. (For instance, among the stories picked for the anime series, one in the first series very obviously picks up from a story in The Cyberiad, and I'm fairly sure one in the second series is inspired by Inverted World.)
