Hallo, a new Sunday, a new thread! Last week I slowed down on reading, still have thirteen pages to go, but I was sick for the second half of it, so giving myself a bit of a pass. It’ll give @Belerith a chance to catch up to me in the meantime! Now we’re both behind on the threads!
First things first: refer to Hashing out the details for reading Murakami Haruki’s 1Q84 (Intermediate/Advanced Book) for links to the threads of the 前編 for book 1.
We started on a two week per chapter schedule, but decided to speed up towards the end of the 前編, so we will go ahead with a one chapter one week schedule for the next 12 chapters as well.

Warnings (read please!)
This story contains themes of an adult and/or sensitive nature, including cults, sex, murder, and sexual abuse of children, both mentioned, and graphic (though not until Book 2, in the latter case).
Our character's journey so far.
We learned more about Aomame’s life as a sports instructor, and about her best friends tragic end as a yough wife of a sadistic bastard. We see the first of Aomame’s rage against men who hurt women.
第１５章：青豆：気球に碇をつけるみたいにしっかりと
Let’s start off with a rough translation of the title:
Chapter 15: Aomame: Tightly, as if tying an anchor to a blimp.
