๐Ÿ“š๐Ÿ“š Read every day challenge - Spring 2023 ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒท๐ŸŒผ

Iโ€™ve been reading about a chapter a day for both ใ•ใ‚ˆใชใ‚‰ใ™ในใฆใฎใƒ–ใƒซใƒผ and Girl Friends. I am enjoying both a lot so far, ใ•ใ‚ˆใชใ‚‰ใ™ในใฆใฎใƒ–ใƒซใƒผ is on the harder side while Girl Friends is on the easier side, so its a nice balance between things.
Iโ€™m reading the digital version of Girl Friends and noticed that the copy I got from Bookwalker has vol1 at 186 pages but the page count on Natively lists 146 pages and that matches what is on Amazon. Not sure why the physical and digital version would differ that much :thinking:

Well, I have a physical copy so I decided to check! Natively and Amazon are wrong. Bookwalker is right. 186 page (or very close to that number, the last page number is 146 which is somewhere in chapter 6 (and the first volume has the first 7 chapters).

Edit: Checked Bookmeter and they also have the faulty page number from Amazonโ€ฆ I wonder how many manga I have that has the wrong page count on bookmeter. I might have to compare a fewโ€ฆ

Each colour in this book has a short paragraph (about 4 or 5 sentences) describing the colour, history, uses and such things, it takes me about the same time to decipher one paragraph as it does to read a whole page of this Taikoki book. I should probably read more physical books.

finished the first case in ้€†่ปขๆคœไบ‹(ใŽใ‚ƒใใฆใ‚“ใ‘ใ‚“ใ˜)๏ผlittle hints of the main plot have been put in place, and i see franziska is in the next case! which possibly explains why ๅ…„ๅฆน(ใ‘ใ„ใพใ„) was in the jpdb deck. two games i ordered came today too, the ๆผขๆคœ(ใ‹ใ‚“ใ‘ใ‚“) one that iโ€™ve seen a couple of people mention around the forums, and one of the gintama ones (specifically ๅคง้จ’ๅ‹•(ใ ใ„ใใ†ใฉใ†)). looking forward to giving them a try!

it wasnโ€™t in ้€†่ปขๆคœไบ‹(ใŽใ‚ƒใใฆใ‚“ใ‘ใ‚“ใ˜) but i did see ไธ€ๆŒ™ไธกๅพ—(ใ„ใฃใใ‚‡ใ‚Šใ‚‡ใ†ใจใ) (two birds one stone; serving two ends) while going through my dictionary and liked it. presumably not to be confused with ไธ€็ŸณไบŒ้ณฅ(ใ„ใฃใ›ใใซใกใ‚‡ใ†) which is literally two birds one stone :sweat_smile:

itโ€™s also a wanikani vocab word, when you get there!

9-nine-


Casually starting to post like Iโ€™ve been doing it since day one :eyes: . Bit of a hectic period lately but itโ€™s gone back to normal, hopefully I can be somewhat diligent with posting again from now on. For now Iโ€™m only posting what I remember from the last few days. Funny how most of the stuff Iโ€™m reading atm is related to the number 9 :joy: .

Iโ€™ve been mostly reading 9-nine- lately and now started 999 with the club which Iโ€™m having a blast with. Iโ€™m pretty satisfied both with the enjoyment from the stuff Iโ€™m reading atm and with the amount Iโ€™m able to read pretty much everyday, my stamina has improved greatly this last year and especially these last few months the more I was able to increase how much I read on the regular. Itโ€™s very rare thereโ€™s a day I donโ€™t read anything at all. I ended up stopping ใ†ใŸใ‚ใ‚Œใ‚‹ใ‚‚ใฎ at some point but I plan to return to it eventually with a new save from the beginning (because Iโ€™m like that, if I take too long to resume games I just start a new save altogether).

There are some other things I want to start relatively soon as well, weโ€™ll see how that goes.

Day 13 Progress:
ใ€†ๅˆ‡ๅ‰ใซใฏ็™พๅˆใŒๆ—ใ‚‹ ไบŒๅทป - 14.90% โ†’ 41.40%

My reading motivation is apparently just on a regular ebb and flow now. A few days of loafing around and then one day where the stars align and I actually feel like committing to reading for onceโ€ฆ

Anyway, 40-ish percent into the second volume and ใ€†็™พๅˆ has definitely cemented itself as my favorite series Iโ€™ve read in Japanese so far. The ๆ—ฅๅธธ(ใซใกใ˜ใ‚‡ใ†) shenanigans of the main couple are just pleasant to read and the series has been given even more creative leeway now that everything had been established last volume. Itโ€™s like a Futari Escape (maybe a bit of a niche reference) thatโ€™s about 30% less funny and 300% more explicitly more gay, which has definitely been a worthwhile trade-off.

Word of the Day: ใŠ็Œชๅฃ(ใกใ‚‡ใ“) - sake cup. Drinking out of a pigโ€™s mouthโ€ฆ? (Seems like the kanji were ateji of a former reading)

  • ๆŠ—(ใ‚ใ‚‰ใŒ)ใ† = to go against; to oppose
  • ็จ(ใญ)ใ‚ไป˜(ใค)ใ‘ใ‚‹ = to glare at = ็จ(ใซใ‚‰)ใฟไป˜(ใค)ใ‘ใ‚‹. First Kanji is usually ็จ(ใซใ‚‰)ใ‚€.
  • ๅ…ˆๅˆป(ใ›ใ‚“ใ“ใ) = a while ago (ๅ…ˆ(ใ•ใ)ใปใฉ) / already (ๆ—ข(ใ™ใง)ใซ)

A different sounding is ๆฑŽ็”จ(ใฏใ‚“ใ‚ˆใ†) (= all-purpose), but Japanese people in a certain YouTube got tricked, and Google IME suggests (with :arrow_right:) anyway.
  • ๆŠ•(ใช)ใ’ใ‚„ใ‚Š(ใช) = careless; irresponsible = ๆŠ•(ใช)ใ’้ฃ(ใ‚„)ใ‚Š. While ๆŠ•(ใช)ใ’ๆง(ใ‚„ใ‚Š) is a throwing spear (ๆง(ใ‚„ใ‚Š)); javelin.

:white_flower: A Dictionary of Basic Japanese Grammar (p. 36 โ†’ p.38)
Eh, yeah. Couldnโ€™t really read many pages today. Maybe tomorrowโ€ฆ

:old_key: 999 (middle of scene 5 โ†’ beginning of scene 6) ~20min
I could only squeeze in 20 min today. But I set everything up, so that I can read it on my tablet now (which is mobile instead of my stationary PC โ†’ big advantage!). So maybe Iโ€™ll have the chance to read the VN more often than the past two weeks. That would be awesome, because I really love it until now!

Everything has been so hectic the last few days (ty for catching my furigana @enbyboiwonder, i make flashcards out of these so like actually seriously thank you :sweat_smile:) that I forgot to share something super super cool I found at a thrift store a few days ago! There was like half a shelf full of these ไธ–็•Œๆ–‡ๅญธๅ…จ้›† volumes! (ft. a new form of ๆ–‡ๅญฆ iโ€™ve never seen before) They are translated european (mostly) literature in a series from the 60s, a lot of them I either didnโ€™t recognize from the jp titles and didnโ€™t want to look up, or were only parts of multi volume books

They were in great condition but a little spendy so I only got this one: La Condition Humaine (ไบบ้–“ใฎๆกไปถ) and La Voie Royale (็Ž‹้“) by Malraux (ใƒžใƒซใƒญใƒผ). Will I ever read this? who knows, but itโ€™s cool! Flipping through the first few pages it actually looked surprisingly readable. But it would be really fun to try reading something in japanese and then cross-referencing with a french copy instead of english. My japanese is honestly probably better than my french right now, but those are future problems for a future me! :laughing:

Just some re-reading, mostly I was just making and compiling notes. With the grammar reading starting to get into the actual entries soon I wanted to be at least somewhat prepared. At least I know where I left off of.

Continued reading ็†็”ฑ and finished the first chapter. The book is punishing me for taking a break from reading yesterday. So many names to keep track of! On-and-off reading will probably be difficult with this book. The whole case is now revealed, and judging from the title of chapter 2, we will get more backstory. The cliffhanger makes me want to continue right away.

Personally I would have felt compelled to rotate volume 7 so it was the right way up :slight_smile:

Yesterday I finished scoping out the week 3 reading for the 999 club so I could make the post and such, and today I started looking at next weekโ€™s reading. It continues to be fun going back through it all again, and definitely a nice sense of progress :grin: Iโ€™d be playing more if Hades werenโ€™t occupying my entire brain but what can you do :man_shrugging:

Oooh boy I can imagine, it doesnโ€™t sound like itโ€™d have a fun font :joy: I should try a Mario game in Japanese again sometime, when I did before it definitely took more brainpower than I was really down for, but itโ€™s been a while! Someday :eyes:
