Happy 
NARU DAY!!
The next volume for me will be vol 17, maybe I can read 17-19 and finish the Search for Tsunade arc!!
But before I remember what was going on in ninja world, breakfast… 
Vol 17, 182 pgs
First volume of the day done! I’ve been reading Dungeon Meshi all week and it’s kinda crazy going from a L30 no-furigana manga to this where everything has furigana and all the dialogue is just like チクショウゥゥゥゥゥゥゥゥゥ！！ 
Maybe it’s lunchtime now, I have some instant ramen in the pantry that would be on theme… 
One hour of reading down! It’s been a while since I did any marathon reading and I’ve definitely gotten slower in the meantime. I’m roughly halfway through Vol. 18 currently, the story tension is building but there’s generally a lot of dialogue so I’m trying my best to stay attentive to the exposition.
I also wanted to use today to catch up on posting the arc threads – I will use this break to write up and post the Akatsuki Suppression Arc!! 
My Totals: 90 pages, 1:00
EDIT:
The Akatsuki Suppression Arc thread had been posted! This arc covers vols. 35 through 38, bookended by some really gorgeous cover art 
Back to reading!
Vol. 18 完了!
My first completed volume of anything since March 
This one took me a while (the text-dense pages of this volume weren’t helping) but there was some really excellent character art and fascinating story developments. I’m excited to continue onward!
I have two more arc threads to catch up on, so I think I will pause briefly and get Arc 9 made before I continue on to volume 19 
My totals: 2:30:00, 192 pages
EDIT:
The Itachi Pursuit Arc thread is now posted!! If I remember correctly, there was/were one or two people hovering around this part of the story. The thread is now posted and the world is your oyster 
GASP soggy and i are at the same spot again, all’s right in the world
HI NARU DAYS i just finished volume 35 and i wish i found out about this one earlier because im too tired to keep going for now, but at least one volume ahead C:
GOOD LUCK TO ALL NARU READERS HELLO
Volume 19 now complete! My time was a little faster on this one, though I’m not sure if it’s because I’m gaining some of my speed back or because there was a lot of compelling action in this one The end had me choked up though 
I’m taking a break for now, I might return to start volume 20 before the day is over but I have some tasks so complete so I don’t think I’ll be able to finish it in time 
Some pages are better than no pages, though!
My totals: 4:00:00, 384 pages
Arc 10: The Tale of Jiraiya The Gallant 
A super short arc, only 1.5 volumes, but packed full of action!
@polv I see you zooming through the volumes
Actually, I bought volumes by arcs as written in the OP, and seeing it’s the date for the current arc already.
I don’t want to buy all 72 volumes at once, too much commitment and money. Table helps define where money stops. and, tbh, nostalgic points. I am not interested in sequels, but this one is at times better than I thought.
