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.

I added a quick character list, not sure if it needs anything else. Just typing those kanji was frustrating, my IME couldn’t autocomplete some of those names. Good practice I suppose…
Now that I refreshed myself on the character names, I’ll add an addendum to my comment last week about the names being relatively easy for the main characters. I think the first names are all easy to remember since they all follow common readings. For 蜂須賀 I always forget whether or not to rendaku the last mora. And 万里小路 is the bane of my existence.
The Android IME gets it right too, weird. Either Mozc isn’t as smart or I didn’t spell it right. Fortunately the kanji are common enough that it was straightforward to spell with the individual characters.
蜂須賀 is a cute name tho, and relatively straightforward.
@Boodil you are not reading this one I think? They totally stole the idea from ISLAND that the main character arrives in a different time period, a policeman wants to arrest them due to a very inappropriate dress code, but a rich girl just comes and says that it’s fine, it’s her servant
Tsugumu, comrade, don’t let that nepobaby talk you down. Find a way to leave the country for Russia and seize the means of production! It’ll be fun, you’ll see!
