didnโ€™t quite do a full section of ้€†่ปขๆคœไบ‹(ใŽใ‚ƒใใฆใ‚“ใ‘ใ‚“ใ˜), did maybe half? the first section being incredibly long curse strikes again. was reminded of the fact that this entire game takes place over like, three days, plus flashback, and iโ€™m not entirely sure edgeworth has slept in between :joy:thereโ€™s at least one all nighter in there.

did read another chapter of ็„กๆŠตๆŠ—ไธป็พฉ(ใ‚€ใฆใ„ใ“ใ†ใ—ใ‚…ใŽ) as well, which continues to get stranger. itโ€™s nice to read words that arenโ€™t all legalese.

words that stood out: ใ‚ขใƒ˜ใƒณ (opium), ็ฉบๆŒฏ(ใ‹ใ‚‰ใถ)ใ‚Š (swing and a miss, (an effort) ending in failure), ็œ (ใญใ‚€)ใŸใ„ (sleepy. cos i need more words for sleepy), ใƒใ‚ฟใƒณ (titanium), and ๆœ‰ๆฉŸ(ใ‚†ใ†ใ) (organic, in this case as in chemistry)

the first chapter of this was much more difficult than the rest of the series imo, but part of that is probably that i wasnโ€™t used to the style and made up words yet, plus there was world-building. but also itโ€™s really good and would highly recommend if you do end up reading another manga

(With ็™พๅกฉ่Œถ, ใ€Œ็™พใ€means โ€˜manyโ€™ andใ€Œๅกฉใ€โ€˜soakโ€™ as in โ€˜soaked inโ€™, meaning the colour looks like it has been dyed brown over and over again. Itโ€™s a bit awkward to have a natural translation, unless thereโ€™s a technical dye word for something thatโ€™s been dyed the same colour repeatedly that I donโ€™t know about. Itโ€™s a deep brown colour, very similar to the colour of yลkan sweets.)
(Also think this is the first time Iโ€™ve ever seen the kun reading of ็™พ in the wild)

(the colour (soft brown) associated with the tea that was imported from China during the Edo period)

ใจใใŒใ‚‰่Œถใกใ‚ƒ - (Ibis) Pink China/Chinese Brown
(Records of this colour had the first part only written in kana, but itโ€™s believed thatใ€Œใจใใ€refers toใ€Œ้ด‡ใ€, andใ€ŒใŒใ‚‰ใ€refers toใ€Œๅ”ใ€. So a pinkish shade of soft brown)

We meet a new character, Nikoro (Nikol?) whose sister is learning to be a rune crafter at University, something that Markus still dreams of.

The nice thing about keeping to a time limit is that at some point Iโ€™ll be able to see the page numbers slowly rise. At least, as long as the material keeps to the same difficulty.

Also, giving it a try to read out-loud. Maybe itโ€™ll help some.

Related to goals yesterday, I found out there was a light novely/short story collection from ๅ››ๆœˆใฏๅ›ใฎๅ™“, which I think would probably also be in that gap of โ€œharder than BBC but not as hard as an adult bookโ€. Using language, writing style, and characters Iโ€™ve already spent time with might be nice. I purchased it digitally since I had some points left over. Thereโ€™s also two additional manga volumes (one prelude, one coda), but unsure about picking up those.

Read:

  • ๅค่ฆ‹ใ•ใ‚“ใฏใ‚ณใƒŸใƒฅ็—‡ใงใ™ ch 19 + ใŠใพใ‘ - done with volume 1! The digital quality is pretty low, so i think if i wanted to keep reading this Iโ€™d get it physical, but thatโ€™s a lot of volumes to commit toโ€ฆ probably donโ€™t have space for that and Iโ€™m caught up in English anyway. Cute and fun series, but not sure if iโ€™d read the entire thing again. For whatever reason, the english translation is actually a week ahead of the official jp digital release, so itโ€™s not even something I can just jump in to the current weekly releases. unless I want to be a week behind my friends reading in english, that is :man_shrugging:
  • ๅ››ๆœˆใฏๅ›ใฎๅ™“ ๅฐ่ชฌ ใƒ—ใƒญใƒญใƒผใ‚ฐ (pg 1 โ†’ 20) - lots of new words, but still felt readable. Limited furigana (mostly for musical terms), but itโ€™s digital so that isnโ€™t a huge hindrance. Had a little trouble keeping track of characters talking in a dialogue, since there were four characters talking at once, but I think I managed. I did want something a bit more challenging! These seem to be stories interspersed in the main plot

Still gonna try out ่Ÿฒๅธซ tomorrow, but I think I can manage this book and then move on to the other books I mentioned yesterday

Oh yeah I bet! Had you watched the show prior to reading the manga? Wondering if that will give me a little boost, since Iโ€™m mostly familiar with the characters and world. Speaking style I expect will be a challenge for sure

i had, but years ago. i sort of vaguely knew how stuff worked and had vivid memories of maybe three plots late in the series? but beyond that i was basically working from scratch :sweat_smile:

honestly it varied, thereโ€™s quite a bit of old-fashioned dialect from some of the more rural characters (the fishermen, god, hated their speech patterns so much :joy:), quite a bit of polite speech from others (ใงใ”ใ–ใ‚‹ etc.), ginkoโ€™s speech is pretty accessible (once you get used to his sentence ending ใช habit) and heโ€™s the person who by and large has the most dialogue, so itโ€™s not too bad. the descriptions, at the beginning and end of chapters, were what tripped me up most of the timeโ€‹:sweat_smile:

itโ€™s definitely different, iโ€™ve not read anything else quite like it. itโ€™s kind of sparse, but very descriptive.

for what itโ€™s worth, in terms of old-fashioned style speech, i found bungou stray dogs (beast in particular) much harder.

May 3rd!

Today I read 3 pages of the Orange light novel, but then decided I was a bit too tired to read any more since I still find any sort of dense text a bit fatiguing to read.
I wasnโ€™t happy with only reading 3 pages today though - so I also read 2 chapters of Chiโ€™s Sweet Home.

Summary post

Day 31: May 1st
Missed :upside_down_face: Honestly there is no good reason, I even had the whole day off from work but I was just struggling to do literally anything the whole entire day. It just be like that sometimes, I guess.

Day 32: May 2nd
Missed :upside_down_face: I was tired from work anyway, and then my computer decided to have a meltdown so I spend the rest of my evening trying to fix that.

Day 33: May 3rd
What did I read?: ๅคœใฎๅๅ‰ใ‚’ๅ‘ผใ‚“ใง Vol 4
How much did I read?: 49 pages
How long did it take me?: 38 min

Iโ€™m kind of glad todayโ€™s chapters were chill happy fun times because my heart was not ready for more emotions :joy: No Rei at all (D:) but Mira got to have a cute little nighttime outing with Stella, followed by a cute little cooking time with Cap (aka tiny goat boy) and her new sunlight-intolerant friend (whose name Iโ€™m going to romanize as Alde because her name is clearly meant to be a reference to Aldebaran, a star in the constellation Taurus :sparkles:)

I have no Rei pictures today, but hereโ€™s a cute panel of Mira being excited by Capโ€™s vegetable chopping skills :joy:

I feel like the next part is going to be emotions times again, because a) itโ€™s a two-chapter story (which usually means plot) and b) freaking Karutos is on the chapter title page and I trust him NONE also I just learned from Google that the rest of the world apparently romanizes his name as Cartos so um Iโ€™ll be going with that from now on :joy: I donโ€™t think there was an English version of this manga when I read the part with him in it, but it looks like the first volume is available in translation now :eyes:

Also I learned a word today that I low-key love for some reason, ๅญค้ซ˜ (ใ“ใ“ใ†) - aloof; proudly independent; standing apart; solitary

3/5 4 pages ใ‚ทใƒฃใƒ‰ใƒผใƒใ‚ฆใ‚น

As predicted, not much reading last two days. Also had to skim read the thread above! Iโ€™m heading home today so I should read on the plane/ train.

After that - unpredictable. I have a week at home roughly, then start driving north along the east coast of Australia to cairns, with a short trip to the Solomon Islands on the way (flights leave from Brisbane so going from there I think). I have some trips out of cairns and may drive to the far top of Australia, then I loop back down to Alice springs. This time Iโ€™ll stay there semi-permanently (will need to fly back to fetch my cat). Iโ€™m unsure how reading will go during all of this!

  • 49 pages of ้€ใ้€šใฃใŸ้ขจใŒๅนใ„ใฆ, finishing the volume. I definitely didnโ€™t expect to finish it today. I liked the short story, ใ‚‚ใ†ไธ€ใคใฎ้ขจ, better than the novella, but I liked them both.
  • 21 pages of ่Šฑ้ฆจใ‚‹้›จใฎๅใ‚’, finishing ch 1 and leaving off on pg 30. I decided to start this one first because itโ€™s shorter than Stepfather Step by about 100 pages. There are 9 chapters, each one around 30 pages, which is definitely not what Iโ€™m used to with JP novels lol.
    I, hm. didnโ€™t expect smut in the first chapter lmao. I guess the good thing about barely knowing the language is that I donโ€™t know if any of the euphemisms used are purpley and/or cringey and canโ€™t go โ€œugh, no, whyโ€ and die a little inside at them. I just go, โ€œOkay, I guess this is happening,โ€ and continue reading. And also make a note of the euphemism in Shirabe. Anyway, I am finding it interesting so far, even if the smut caught me off guard. Weโ€™re starting out with some angst, which I like.
Some vocab of note:

่‰ใ„ใใ‚Œ (ใใ•ใ„ใใ‚Œ) [n.] strong smell of grass (esp. in summer heat)
็œฆ (ใพใชใ˜ใ‚Š) [n.] outside corner of the eye. This actually comes from ็›ฎใฎๅพŒ, not ็›ฎใฎๅฐป. It is defined as ็›ฎๅฐป, though.

Read a handful of pages from ใƒฌใƒ™ใƒซ๏ผ—, but started so late Iโ€™m already just too tired to focus. :sleeping:

As much as I loved that book, Iโ€™d recommend waiting until you are already comfortable with adult level novels. It is written rather stream-of-consciousness style, leaves out who is narrating what, and generally is a mildly dizzying mess (which I adore). I think youโ€™d get full enjoyment if you wait. May 1-2 books later? Just my 2c though.

You might like some of the popular light novels given you just picked up one? ๆœฌๅฅฝใ perhaps? Or maybe one of ไฝ้‡Ž ใ‚ˆใ‚‹โ€™s books? Full disclosure in that I donโ€™t like his writing style, but Iโ€™ve gotten the impression you mostly read more wholesome content (correct me if wrong) and I think that would be up your alley. Itโ€™s not an adult-targeted novel, but for a learner, in terms of difficulty, theyโ€™re mostly equivalent to standard novels.

yep, that hits the nail on the head mostly :laughing: Sometimes throw a little drama or politics in for fun, but generally slice of life-y stuff (the good politicy stuff is mostly beyond me for a while, anyway). Iโ€™d actually had ๅ›ใฎ่†ต่‡“ใ‚’ใŸในใŸใ„ and ใพใŸใ€ๅŒใ˜ๅคขใ‚’่ฆ‹ใฆใ„ใŸ on the wishlist already, and I saw a movie adaptation of the former a while back. It looks like I might wait to do ใ‚ณใƒณใƒ“ใƒ‹ไบบ้–“ with the IBC primer club when(/if) that starts up, so maybe checking out either of these first would be good. Hadnโ€™t considered ๆœฌๅฅฝใ yet, but I have had the anime in PTW purgatory for a while, so that could also be fun

Iโ€™d actually just re-read the reviews on natively and was thinking that the narration jumping might be kind of a big hurdle. Iโ€™ll get there someday, but I think youโ€™re right: might need a few stepping stones to get there first :laughing:
