did the first part of the middle section of case five, which was a bit of a struggle. idk if iโ€™m tired, the increase in unknown words, or if the length of it was getting to me. i think iโ€™m starting to get why people call this game longwinded.

words that stood out: ใใพใชใ (all over, every nook and cranny. also ้šˆ(ใใพ)ใชใ), ้ฃŸ(ใ)ใ„้•(ใกใŒ)ใ† (to not match well, to be in conflict, to be contradictory), ่–™(ใช)ใ (to cut down, to mow) cos the kanjiโ€™s fun, and ๅฟ—ๅŠ(ใ“ใ“ใ‚ใ–ใ—ใชใ‹)ใฐ for having an absurd amount of furigana

Todayโ€™s Bonus Colours

ๆด—ๆŸฟใ‚ใ‚‰ใ„ใŒใ - Washed Persimmon
(this one is a much more warm and orangey brown than ๆฐดๆŸฟ colour)

้ป„ๆซจๆŸ“ใ“ใ†ใ‚ใœใ‚“ - Wax Tree Dye
(this one wasnโ€™t just forbidden for general commoners, this one was absolutely ็ตถๅฏพ็ฆ่‰ฒ. This colour was pretty much the most royal of all browns, as it was used for the Hลล bird patterns on the Emperorโ€™s ceremonial dress. The dyeing process used wax tree as a base and was pretty complex, and it appears to have a reddy tinge, or a yellow one, depending on the light level.)

่ตคๆœฝ่‘‰ใ‚ใ‹ใใ‚‰ใฐ - Red Marcescent / Red Litterfall
(ๆœฝ่‘‰ (or ๆœฝใก่‘‰) means โ€˜decaying leavesโ€™ but there isnโ€™t really a singular word for that in English, I guess โ€˜marcescentโ€™ might be the closest, but thatโ€™s specifically a type of dying leaf rather than just dead leaves in general, but it sounds pretty cool soโ€ฆ anyway, ๆœฝ่‘‰ is the brown colour leaves start to turn to from the reds and yellows of autumn. It was a popular brown base for colours in the Heian era - it says that there was 48 different dye varieties of ๆœฝ่‘‰ to choose from for clothes. This colour is the reddy hue version of ๆœฝ่‘‰.)

For a light novel thatโ€™s supposedly about being an idol, there seem to be a startling dearth of idol activities and an abundance of sappy romance moments insteadโ€ฆ canโ€™t say itโ€™s been very interesting so far.

The last few days I have been keeping up daily reading of: two episodes of ใ‚ธใƒฃใƒ ๅฑ‹ใ•ใ‚“ Jam Maker on Satori (reread a previous one and read a new one intensively), and a few pages of ใƒžใƒชใƒปใ‚ญใƒฅใƒชใƒผ Marie Curie from ๅๅˆ†ใง่ชญใ‚ใ‚‹ไผ่จ˜ ใซๅนด็”Ÿ (Biographies you can read in 10 minutes), (a few pages, 1-3 of them new depending on how hard they are). That would have been too overwhelming in March and taken far too long to understand everything.

Iโ€™m really encouraged that I finally seem to be over some kind of hump and reading is just starting to feel more immersive and less like study. Iโ€™m still very much a beginner, but it feels like I have reached a much more satisfying level of Japanese. Finally!

And I have found the home post really useful. When I look back on it, it seems to spark more memories about how much I was reading, and even which days were more or less intense (even though none of that information is included!). So it is really motivating to keep up with it.

:broom: Flying Witch : chapter 5 and 6 (I would write the title in Japanese, except it makes my head hurt :crazy_face:)
:white_flower: Dictionary of the grammar stuff : two entries today

More airing of cat, and I read both the dictionary and Flying Witch. Feels good to finish my first manga volume in May. I only need to finish one more this quarter and Iโ€™ve finished half the manga goal for the year. Although, I think it is a bit low, haha. But Iโ€™d rather have a low goal that I can increase if I hit it early, or just enjoy the numbers going higher above the initial goal. :smiley:

Also, Kiro (my cat) decided it would be a good idea to lay down in mud, and when we go in and he is muddy, he gets washed off. I donโ€™t want mud all over my home. xD He doesnโ€™t even mind that much. He kinda likes water and since Iโ€™ve let him play with water and washed off his feet and such before; I guess I just kinda got him used to it.

Heโ€™s not at all interested in a bath though, no no no. That is too much water at once, but coat the bottom of the bathtub with water by running it for a short time, and heโ€™ll be there watching the water go for the drain and then lay down where it is wet. The silly cat.

:peanuts: ใƒญใ‚ธใ‚ซใจใƒฉใƒƒใ‚ซใ‚ปใ‚ค vol. 1 (p. 0 โ†’ p. 25)
The book club finally started last saturday. And today I finally had the time to read the first chapter. It is the first manga without furigana that I am reading. Itโ€™s definitely a challenge. But compared to other manga I am reading, I did not have the feeling, that I had to look up so much more. It just took a little bit longer to look up kanji, because I had to draw them on my phone instead of just writing them (thanks to furigana).
~ 23 minutes

:sunrise: ๆšใฎใƒจใƒŠ vol. 1 (p. 0 - p. 29)
I read here today that the first five volumes are currently freeโ€ฆbut only for another two or three days. I loved the anime, so I want to try the manga. Letโ€™s see whether I can finish at least the first volume in its free time.
~ 26 minutes

Edit: Didnโ€™t have time yesterday to search for an emoji for Akatsuki no Yona. Did so just now and added it. I am not really satisfied with the emoji I chose, but I couldnโ€™t find a better one (I guess sunrise and dawn are not sooo far apart at least)

During Golden Week (a set of consecutive holidays in the first week of May in Japan), I had every intention of reading the manga book I brought along on vacation, but vacation happened so no reading got done. Had a blast so no regrets. I HIGHLY recommend Nagano Prefecture to anyone looking to travel to Japan. Matsumoto is foreign tourist friendly without being super touristy. You can climb around inside Matsumoto castle and itโ€™s SO COOL. The whole prefecture is beautiful too. We took many scenic routes in my kei car, which struggled a lot with the hills. Otsukaresama, Tanto-san.

Anyway, this week started off with a bang with the reading of nearly 20 pages of Chamber of Secrets, enough to move on to the next volume! I swung by the bookstore on my way home from vacation to pick up the volume after this one so Iโ€™m excited to have earned it.

Various doujin
42 pages

Seasons seemed to say that itโ€™s Ice Cream Day, which dates back to Edo. It seems like it might be somewhat known because I woke up to a notification in one of my JoJo servers this morning that someone posted Vanilla Ice Ice Cream Day fanart at midnight. It was either a rendered or cell shaded piece but clearly took time. Itโ€™ll be interesting to see after work if thereโ€™s more Ice Cream Day fanart.

The doujin I mostly happened to read due to a discussion about printing sizes. It wasnโ€™t high density text, but I donโ€™t think Iโ€™ve sat down to examine those particular volumes well before.

Regular JoJo I looked at before bed, sized it up and thought โ€œI bet I could finish that tonight,โ€ and then I did. Unfortunately that meant no time for Dracula, but hopefully I can spend my lunch today with the other vampire. These particular chapters were a bit rough emotionally and I really appreciate the way the animation team illustrated the small gestures that really help drive the impact of the scene home. Itโ€™s wild how JoJo can go from kids walking in their neighborhood to the morality of children dealing with a parent whoโ€™s suddenly suffered brain damage to the point of not being able to speak for themselves and recognize their kids and the effect that growing up in such a situation might have.

Didnโ€™t have as much time to read today, the last few pieces of furniture I ordered showed up, so I spent a few hours putting all that together and getting stuff organized. New desk is much bigger than my old one, so I have room for even more book stacking :laughing:

I donโ€™t talk a ton about my English reading here usually, but I have slowly been building up a backlog of books that are japanese language/culture adjacent. This is stuff that isnโ€™t necessarily about the language (or japan at all), but definitely relevant in a social or general background knowledge sense: lots about religion, history, art, literature, some genuine sociology books, that kinda stuff. The other day I found an English translation of Romance of the Three Kingdoms while thrifting for some kitchen stuff, and figured โ€œโ€ฆeh, why not?โ€ So I guess that stack isnโ€™t getting any smaller for a while :sweat_smile:


Read:

  • ใ‚ขใ‚ชใƒใƒซใƒฉใ‚คใƒ‰ ch 3, 4 - finished volume 1 last night, started on volume 2
  • Making Sense of Japanese - finally knocked out the last few sections of this too, figured I was close enough that I might as well just power through so it can go back on the shelf. Not even remotely making a dent in my non-fiction stack, but still :melting_face:
