それでも歩は寄せてくる ・ When will Ayumu Make his Move? ♟ - Volume 1

[ChristopherFritz]

Today, while slacking off on Japanese learning, I put together some CSS to replace the lesson and review images on the WaniKani homepage. It’s nothing fancy, but I figured I’d share here in case anyone else would be interested in changing things up a little on their dashboard.

Install a browser extension such as User CSS that lets you add your own custom styles to any web site, then visit WaniKani’s dashboard and put the following into the extension:

.lessons-and-reviews__lessons-button{background-image:url(http://kurifuri.com/files/wanikani/css/ayumu_lessons-0.png)}
.lessons-and-reviews__lessons-button--1{background-image:url(http://kurifuri.com/files/wanikani/css/ayumu_lessons-1.png)}
.lessons-and-reviews__lessons-button--25{background-image:url(http://kurifuri.com/files/wanikani/css/ayumu_lessons-25.png)}
.lessons-and-reviews__lessons-button--50{background-image:url(http://kurifuri.com/files/wanikani/css/ayumu_lessons-50.png)}
.lessons-and-reviews__lessons-button--100{background-image:url(http://kurifuri.com/files/wanikani/css/ayumu_lessons-100.png)}
.lessons-and-reviews__lessons-button--250{background-image:url(http://kurifuri.com/files/wanikani/css/ayumu_lessons-250.png)}
.lessons-and-reviews__lessons-button--500{background-image:url(http://kurifuri.com/files/wanikani/css/ayumu_lessons-500.png)}

.lessons-and-reviews__reviews-button{background-image:url(http://kurifuri.com/files/wanikani/css/urushi_reviews-0.png)}
.lessons-and-reviews__reviews-button--1{background-image:url(http://kurifuri.com/files/wanikani/css/urushi_reviews-1.png)}
.lessons-and-reviews__reviews-button--50{background-image:url(http://kurifuri.com/files/wanikani/css/urushi_reviews-50.png)}
.lessons-and-reviews__reviews-button--100{background-image:url(http://kurifuri.com/files/wanikani/css/urushi_reviews-100.png)}
.lessons-and-reviews__reviews-button--250{background-image:url(http://kurifuri.com/files/wanikani/css/urushi_reviews-250.png)}
.lessons-and-reviews__reviews-button--500{background-image:url(http://kurifuri.com/files/wanikani/css/urushi_reviews-500.png)}
.lessons-and-reviews__reviews-button--1000{background-image:url(http://kurifuri.com/files/wanikani/css/urushi_reviews-1000.png)}

.lessons-and-reviews>ul>li>a {height: 30px; background-position: bottom;}

This replaces the lesson and review images with Ayumu and Urushi:

Done @ChristopherFritz!

Also may I thank you for all the effort you’re putting in every single post? I do appreciate them and enjoy reading each one of them!

Plus this CCS is really nice, I’ll give it a try later!!!

Hey! Is it too late to join this book club? It would be my first, and I thought maybe I should wait for the next one, but the next one doesn’t look too interesting to me and this one looks really cute, so…

@TobiasW

but the next one doesn’t look too interesting to me and this one looks really cute

Always prioritize that which you believe will be interesting for you.

If you’d like to join in, I recommend reading chapter one (and its discussion thread if necessary, plus ask any questions you have) so you get to know the premise and characters.

After that, the chapters are fairly standalone. You can decide to jump to the current chapter(s) we’re reading, and read/follow along in real time (getting to the skipped chapters later). Or you can decide to go through the chapters in order, following behind the club.

If there’s enough interest, someone will run an offshoot book club to continue with the next volume after this one is finished.

Ooooh, that’s nice! I’ll definitely give this a try as my first manga then!

Especially since I miiiiight have already bought it…

皆さん、よろしくおねがいします！

[Paperhana]

Welcome!

[Vanessa-san]

Welcome and you can start whenever you want! Also, each chapter is a stand-alone one, so you don’t have to read all the previous ones to be able to understand the storyline!

First things first, a huge thank to all of you who took part in this bookclub! It has been a pleasure to read your questions and answer, and seeing everyone giving its own contribution! o(≧▽≦)o

Now, since some of you have already shown interest (and I myself have already bought volume 2), here I want to leave a small poll to see if anyone wants to keep going with an offshoot club for our Ayumu-kun and Urushi-chan.

Would you like to keep going with それでも歩は寄せてくる in an offshoot club?

Thank you everyone who voted! So, let’s set up the offshoot club for Ayumu-kun!
First let’s define the starting date for the second volume! Below you you can find a small poll, so choose the one you’re more comfortable with! ヽ(*・ω・)ﾉ

Absolute beginner book club now voting for next book - link

[basoomie]

Heads up for anyone planning to read this series at some point (like myself), Volume 1 is currently free on bookwalker and kindle (amazon jp) until 12/2/21.
I’m not sure if this is free forever or a limited trial, but worth grabbing now just in case.

[mperrott]

Just read chapter one… That was hard but ill keep going!

[MrGeneric]

You got this! If you end up having any questions about any of the chapters that aren’t answered in their respective threads, feel free to ask them! Many of us are still actively watching these threads and will be happy to help!
