- Death Note Vol.5 Ch.39
Try reading without look up, while inferring from Kanji and Kana; but it felt too long. Also, I somewhat have lost interest in the case (just like L some chapters ago). Furigana is very helpful, because at least I won’t blank out. (I might remember Kanji meaning, but not the reading.)
And indeed, I can’t highlight manga on Bookwalker.
- うたわれるもの (Steam) 1 hour
I killed MC in a fight, but I believe he will be revived for the next fight.
Interesting vocabularies
- ワイロ written on top 献金 (けんきん). I don’t realize the Kanji form until I look up, but わい gives some naughty and bad feelings; it’s actually 賄賂.
- First Kanji is seen often throughout the same material of the same chapter (always read わい). Verb / Kun form not seen within the chapter (賄う (まかなう)).
- さする written in Hiragana. Kanji form of 摩る, 擦る has many readings.
- 謙虚 void is modest
- 不条理 perhaps like 不合理
- 呻き声 confused with 呷る from yesterday. Of course no Furigana (うめきごえ).
- 瓶 [かめ] apparent 花瓶 or such has a Kun reading, like 亀, but with different pitch. 大瓶 [おおがめ] in context.
