Discussion Guidelines Spoiler Courtesy Please follow these rules to avoid inadvertent ネタバレ. If you’re unsure whether something should have a spoiler tag, err on the side of using one. Any potential spoiler for the current week’s reading need only be covered by a spoiler tag. Predictions and conjecture made by somebody who has not read ahead still falls into this category. Any potential spoilers for external sources need to be covered by a spoiler tag and include a label (outside of the spoiler tag) of what might be spoiled. These include but are not limited to: other book club picks, other books, games, movies, anime, etc. I recommend also tagging the severity of the spoiler (for example, I may still look at minor spoilers for something that I don’t intend to read soon). Any information from later in the book than the current week’s reading (including trigger warnings that haven’t yet manifested) needs to be hidden by spoiler tags and labeled as coming from later sections. Instructions for Spoiler Tags Click the cog above the text box and use either the “Hide Details” or “Blur Spoiler” options. The text which says “This text will be hidden” should be replaced with what you are wishing to write. In the case of “Hide Details”, the section in the brackets that is labelled “Summary” can be replaced with whatever you like also (i.e, [details=”Chapter 1, Pg. 1”]). Hide Details results in the dropdown box like below: Example This is an example of the “Hide Details” option. The “Blur Spoiler” option will simply blur the text it surrounds. Posting Advice When asking for help, please mention the page number, and check before posting that your question hasn’t already been asked. As the threads get longer, it becomes more convenient to use the Search function, which is located in the upper right corner of the forum. It is the magnifying glass which is near your profile picture! The best way to search is usually to type part of the sentence you are confused about, and select “in this topic”. This will show you all posts within the current thread which has that string of text. Be sure to join the conversation! It’s fun, and it’s what keeps these book clubs lively! There’s no such thing as a stupid question! We are all learning here, and if the question has crossed your mind, there’s a very good chance it has crossed somebody else’s also! Asking and answering questions is a great learning opportunity for everyone involved, so never hesitate to do so! Membership poll poll Don’t forget to set this thread to Watching in order to be notified when weekly threads get posted!

That’s also good because the next Beginner Book Club is gonna start on the 15th - so I’m glad we’re not starting at the same time!

[image] Shadowlauch: Since almost half of the people in the poll want the club to start at the 29th of July at the earliest we will be starting at that date. :musical_note: We’re almost there! :musical_note:

Oooh, you guys are starting volume 3. In a few weeks, I’d love to hear what you guys think. I read the first volume and it was nice and all, but didn’t grab my interest much. I think it would work better for me with more overarching plot, so please let me know if volume 3 keeps leaning that way. (I seem to remember hearing that volume 2 started to have some of that?) I really like the art and the concept, so I’m not entirely sure why it didn’t click with me (considering I like slice of life), but I think more overarching plot would definitely make me interested in trying a couple of more volumes. I wonder if it is because each bug comes and goes without leaving any kinda residue even if they’re pretty crazy ones. Like imagine what kinda deep emotional stories that could be told with that plot device… Ah, missed potential, yeah, that might be what I’d been feeling.

[image] Book9: I think more overarching plot would definitely make me interested in trying a couple of more volumes. yes… you should try vol 2 [image] Book9: I wonder if it is because each bug comes and goes without leaving any kinda residue even if they’re pretty crazy ones. no spoilers but you sure no residue? :thinking:… really ought to try vol 2 :wink: and then vol3!!!

I was only speaking for volume 1 and there were no discernible residual effects of bugs in that volume that I can recall. Are you saying there is plenty of overarching plot in volume 2? Or does it just begin happening? I was waiting for reports on volume 3 because I was lead to believe it only started to appear a bit towards the end of volume 2, which for me is not indication enough honestly.

It’s the last chapter or two of Volume 2 where the overarching plot really came in; the first chapter of Volume 3 has kept up that trend so far. :grin:
