Itā€™s okay, I stole @MissMisc and @seanblueā€™s designs myself. I feel itā€™s more like a shared template at this point.

On another note, it turns out Iā€™m already done with this weekā€™s reading :stuck_out_tongue:

This seems to be the first ā€œrealā€ isekai book I read. I was talking about it with a friend who told me that all the stuff the MC is thinking about are basically tropes of the genre. Itā€™s kinda interesting that my first book is a deconstruction of the genre :stuck_out_tongue:

Would you like me to create a voice chat room for this book?

@MissMisc :high_touch:

I think thatā€™s how I was with the magical girl genre since the first one I watched was Madoka Magica.

Can you just change the kino channel to Re zero channel? There is no need to have 2000000 different channel. I donā€™t think anyone if reading any Kino anyway.

Thx

For voice chat sure, but Iā€™m not sure if people would want to go back to look at old chat history.

#6

Whereā€™s the ā€œIā€™m not reading this book but reserve the right to lurk in your thread and randomly like your postsā€ option? :stuck_out_tongue:

I hardly think anyone will want to scroll back in it for anything but ok. I mean for now itā€™s good because there is only a few chat but if the numbers go bigger and bigger then you will need to delete some.

Edit: Oh! btw thx for your help

Old clubs could also be sorted under a separate ā€˜folderā€™ thing, so people who arenā€™t interested in them could just keep them collapsed, but theyā€™d still be there if anyone does want to look into them.

@icefang97
Just a reminder that this parse of the Amazon (with definitions lookups) sample exists. It happens to end right at the end of part four, if anyone needs it.
I sure do lmao

Is that end of week four, too, then? Was very helpful for pre-reading before, so Iā€™ll be making use of it. :slight_smile:

(If I happen to have an audio book, would I be able to just input that? Sounds a bit too simple almostā€¦)

Yes it does at first, itā€™s what you expect from an isekai, even the protagonist is aware of the genre and expects its tropes which is what makes this a nice breath of fresh air (and what sets up the whole story as it progresses)

Ok Iā€™ve read some pages, and I can say for sure that this is much much (removed one much in the unlikely chance that Iā€™ve progressed a lot since Iā€™ve read parts of vol 13) easier than what I read from volumes 9-13, almost doesnā€™t feel like ReZero XD

But itā€™ll be nice seeing how the writing progresses. I sincerely hope that one day the club will reach the later volumes. The series keeps getting exponentially better with every arc :relieved:

Ok, that makes more sense. Since I had already read the first 20 pages or so, I thought yā€™all were alarmists, but itā€™s just that it gets better then :smile:
The good thing is that we will ease into it :wink:

Part 4 of the book then, thatā€™s too bad. :man_shrugging: I ended up buying the physical book, so Iā€™ll just treat this week as an easy entry with .io. :slight_smile:

Can anyone tell me around what WaniKani level could I start reading (and understanding) this novel?
