And hey, if you have some interesting discussions with yourself about the content, the rest of us will have something to look forward to when we get here!
I have a 12 hours flight from Tokyo in a couple of days, I have some 70 pages to read, I’m hoping I can let go of looking up every word I don’t know so that I can get back on track
Something like that, yeah. What with prep taking up most of my brain power, I never finished week 2, haha. Counting this week that’s probably 80-90 pages? Something around there.

Also, I wish I remembered when was the last time he used his expression 鬼がかる, but I now understand why it’s super effective.

Week 2 Reading: Till end of chapter 3, page 136
Week 4, page 172

I was really concerned about someone else doing it exactly because of such instances. This becomes exponentially more important as we progress in volumes as well. You’re welcome
Also, by some miracle I also just finished this chapter. Am back in the game!

That happens first when Rem and Subaru were walking back from the village, in volume 2. Right at the illustration where Rem smiles.
I actually told my tutor about the story of the red and blue demons when it came up and she said it was from an old folklore tale called 泣いた赤鬼. Here is a simplified version:

Interesting.
