As @mrahhal said it in the home thread before the book is getting harder to read. Every time there is a strategy meeting, my understanding just drops. Maybe it’s because since I’m now using bookwalker I can’t copy-paste in google translate anymore but I do feel is it harder to understand.
This week spoiler
I like all the interaction between Subaru and Julius. Then Felix is just there to put oil on the fire.
I also love the two cat siblings. Mimi who is super cute but super savage. Ti-bi(if that is how we are suppose to write it) that when he touch the gospel just throw it and the reaction he had was just like a cat.
Both of them were just looting a dead body like it’s the natural thing to do. I was cute and surprising. Maybe because I can only see them as kid. I wonder how old they are.
I also liked the wordplay on 「ちびではない。チエービです。」
I have a question :
Just before the end of part 4 Subaru says:
[やっぱ奥さんネタエグいとこくるくるな!?]
What does ネタエグmeans? I think Subaru think that Teresia is beating Wilhelm when she is angry.
And speak about it again 4 lines after.
「いやいや、まさかただ天然で奥さんネタぶち込んでくるわけじゃ。。。ないようね
?」
Am I right or not?
If it’s any consolation, yeah, at some places I had to pause more than usual especially in discussions.
Summary
Tivi, if I remember.
And ネタ usually means “content”, “material”, etc. In this case, he’s saying when stuff about the wife came up. It has a nuance close to a “gossip” or a “meme” as well.
After reading a ton to try to catch up, seems I’m now the only one that actually voted for “reading along” so far this week (that explains the lack of comments on the previous week though)
With how eventless most of it was, I wouldn’t be surprised if something were to happen pretty fast in next week’s reading. It definitely feels a lot like everything just is going too smoothly, which to be honest started to feel a bit boring during the last few pages of this week
(The “previous chapter” thing in the first post loops back to this thread @icefang97 and the thing also says “week 3 reading” instead of week 2)
(that explains the lack of comments on the previous week though)
