I’ve already read this part, but I’m here for discussion
I’m dropping this book

I did not pre-read the chapter this week, so the vocabulary list is blank. Please help me fill it in!
There’s only a tiny bit of Shougi this week, but at least one person found my Guide to Shougi Pieces helpful, so feel free to use it to make sense of what’s going on in the shougi parts!
Hmmm so it seems 異母の糸 is a reference to 揖保乃糸 which apparently is a rather famous soumen brand. Both 異母 and 揖保 are pronounced いぼ, and の’s original kanji is 乃.
I thought maybe the たって in どれくらいたってだっけ is derived from 経つ-- as in about how much time passed , but why is it in て form, and what is the だ there for? Could it be a typo? (Should be た instead of だ ?)
That’s really weird that it’s in jisho as an expression. It’s a grammar particle…the particle is actually っけ, it only has だ before it when it follows nouns or na adjectives. After verbs, it usually just follows the past tense plain verb:
My apologies. I jumped too quickly to the conclusion that it was just だっけ. Certainly the grammar feels strange in that sentence. Sadly I can’t seem to find any explanation of why the て-form would be followed by だ there
I’m inclined to say so. I’ve only ever found a handful of actual typos in my Japanese reading (more often than not it’s just something I misunderstood), but it makes perfect sense if you look at it as たってた rather than たってだ.
I was on the fence about it possibly being て-form acting as a noun (which it can do; see 見ての通り as one example) but I don’t think that makes a ton of sense here.
That was a nice chapter. When Nikaido first appeared in the anime I thought he’d be kind of annoying and he kinda was but he turned out to be a really nice human Kinda cool to go through the chapters now with a different point of view from when I watched the anime
After being behind on other clubs for a long while I have finally gotten to this one. Read all 6 chapters today. Omg this manga is so wholesome. I don’t even care about the shogi, I just want more scenes with the family

But yes, it got way better compared to the initial scene where I thought he is an annyoing bully dork.
