So excited to see that this is the next pick! I love this anime. I’m already in the middle of four other previous book club picks though
Will catch up on this one later.
Hey everyone. I’m sorry for the last minute page decision. I’ve been trying to read the first chapter this whole week and I finally found the time today. Page 29 is near in the middle of the chapter and is a bit of a fun cliffhanger to end on for the first week imo. If you feel differently, please let me know
Hi everyone, I accidently forgot that we have weekly threads. Here’s week 1’s
Yes, I was wondering when you planned to start us off. ![]()
To be fair, Australia has a head start.
Yeah I just totally forgot about the weekly thread aspect of most book clubs. I blame Dracula and JoJo
Yeah but I’m in Japan, so only by a few hours
From where I live, it’s 30 mins!
Still, we’re still on Saturday, that’s the main thing.
Excited to start! Can you also make the “Week 1” in the schedule of the first post clickable? It’s faster than coming at the bottom of the thread and finding this post again
Sorry about that! Fixed now
Week 2 is up!
Week 3 is up
Week 4 is up!
Welcome to the penultimate week! Week 5 is up
I really need to catch up! May even have to buy the book on bookwalker…
I started with a free version, plus I have a physical copy. But I’m travelling back to Australia a couple of days from this afternoon and don’t want it in my hand luggage. Need a coin back sale!
The final week is up!
While I really like Mushishi, if folks are interested in a spinoff club, I cannot run it unfortunately due to the busy nature of my everyday life. I would be happy to participate in one if someone else makes it though.
I’d consider running one though very busy right now, so I’d prefer it if someone else would! Either way I’d prefer a break for a few weeks at least. I’m still on week 4.
If you run it, your pace is totally fine!
I should probably say too that I have vols 3 and 5 and I don’t know when/where I might find a cheap copy of 2 lol
Thanks for hosting the club! Honestly I think a lot of it went over my head (even though I watched the anime a couple years ago haha), but @Belthazar 's explanations did help a lot. I would definitely join in a spinoff club, there are few manga that handle atmosphere as well as this one.
Thank you @DIO-Berry for running the club and @Belthazar for all the background information!
As for an offshoot: I enjoyed this volume and I might read another volume at some point in the future but I have too many book clubs that I want to catch up to at the moment, so I won’t be joining.
