I’m not sure yet, but once I’ve gotten a little more caught up to the 怪人二十面相 club then I will probably have a better idea of whether I can handle both at the same time. I’ll keep you posted.
Of course if you decide to go with one week I’ll do my best to keep up!
If we decide to have a one week break, we will start on March 7th.
@MaraVos Would it help you to have two weeks in between (i.e. start from March 14th, which gives you a 4 week overlap with the IBC)? I think I could justify that, but 4 weeks feels too long to me given everybody else voted for 1 week…
That would be great!
Cdjapan doesn’t have 後鳥羽伝説殺人事件 available, annoyingly. Amazon has it, but they’re more expensive for shipping usually and don’t pack very well. I wonder if there’s anywhere else worth trying…
I have no idea about where to acquire physical books, but I heard some people mention verasia?
Other than that, how about a shipping proxy from Japan, e.g. from BookOff or some regular book store?
I got my copy from surugaya. Could be worth a shot. (Make sure you have the language set to Japanese when you search.)
Yeah, surugaya have it, but they don’t seem to have anything else I want to go in the order with it…
They have free shipping promos super frequently, so if you keep an eye out for that then it’s not necessary to order more than one thing.
OK great! Then I hope that nobody minds if I push the start date for the next book to March 14th. 
I’ve set up a home thread for it, so we can start to discuss the schedule at some point.
Yes, I’ve heard that so I had a look, but the website also said there was a “900 yen sales commission” per transaction, which sounds like “not actually free and you still want to buy a few things at once”.
I managed to find a couple more items I wanted (including an out of print non fiction book that’s been on my wishlist for years) so I’ve now placed the order. It was indeed effectively a flat 900 yen for shipping, which is still a pretty good deal.
Time flies, and we will soon be starting the evaluation of the third series!
This is its first book:
Please join me for a schedule discussion over there.
