I’m level 8 and have no idea what books to read, but I’ll give it a shot. Are there any rules on how long to read or how many pages to read? Looking forward to this challenge with all of you.

Whatever is an appropriate amount to keep you going. For some folks (especially those starting out into reading) any amount of text read per day counts. For others it’s a minimum of some pages of a book or manga or graded reader. The rules are pretty lax so long as it’s in Japanese (and if you are learning Japanese and another language feel free to use the challenge for both).

Really excited for this. Two weeks back I finally picked a manga back up again and realized it was so much more easy than just half a year ago and since then I´ve read every day. This challenge gives me the perfect opportunity to hold myself accountable to continue doing this.
Reading List 
:
ハピネス 2 - 10
ふらいんぐうぃっち 1 - 10
キメツ学園! 1 - 2
よつばと! 1 - 3
チーズスイートホーム 1 - 12
Hopefully I will can finish some of those before I start buying even more manga… 
I always say that… 
softlyraining’s snowy book stack 
Another year, another reading challenge! Happy to be back. 
My goal for this challenge is to finish as many of my “読んでいる” books as I can. I currently have a stack of three books in front of me, but there’s actually more than that. I’ll start with just those, though. Hopefully I’ll have a nice, clean slate by the end of this challenge so I can enter spring with a stack of fresh books!

Hello! I’m very excited to participate in the challenge as I feel like my consistency with reading has not been great as of late. I will mainly be reading from G-fantasy (Gファンタジー) as i decided to treat myself with a subscription to it to help me read more in the new year. My goal is to read at least two of the month’s stories before I get the next edition. Good luck everyone!

This is my first time participating in the challenge (and I think my first time posting on wanikani community)!
My goal is consistency (doing my best to read a little bit everyday) and improving my vocabulary.
My reading skills aren’t great so I’ll be starting at the very beginning with レベル０on the tadoku site!

Also can someone help me?? I don’t know how wanikani community works and I’m a bit overwhelmed at what to do/what the community culture is here. I want to make some kind of page or post where I can link to each thing that I read. Should I create a “Topic” for that or something else? thank you (^o^)/
I think this will be the third challenge I take part in. Though I’m not very strict with myself.

I haven’t decided on further reading beyond the series above.
You can always link them in your home post here if you want, otherwise you could always start your own study log. There are plenty around, and feel free to put whatever you want about your studies in there.

It’s that time again! It’s wild thinking about how it’s been a year since I started really getting involved in these challenges, how far we’ve come :') Welcome to all the new faces as well, I hope you have a great time! I know these threads have been really impactful for me, so here’s hoping they do the same for you 
I’m oddly not very far into any projects right now 
A main thing will be reading BU$TAFELLOWS with the VN club, but I know I’ll get up to plenty of other chaos on the side. I’ve recently been playing 13 Sentinels as well, so that’ll probably be a significant part of this challenge too. I’ve also been working through 怪盗探偵山猫 on the novel side, so hopefully I can make progress there too! I’m very mystery-heavy it seems 
Inevitably I’ll end up going in and out of other things along the way (maybe I’ll start up another manga since I’ve finished ブルーロック? or keep listening to the バディミッションBOND drama cds at some point??), so we shall see how it goes!
Previous Challenges: 
I will once again join this read everyday challenge. In 2023 I want to go all out and read much more.

Joining again, but not doing a home post I’ll inevitably neglect. I plan to check in about once or twice a month as my goals have me reading one book a month and one manga a week, except September when I’ll be vacationing abroad.
Here’s to seeing how long I can keep up.
Good luck to all participants, new and returning!!
Reading has continued to be the mainstay of my Japanese “studies” so I don’t really have any definite goals this year other than continuing to read and hopefully get fast enough to eventually read the things I want to read.
I had originally intended these to be supplementary reading but the more I read the more I realized I didn’t really have the mental leeway to just pick up a manga on the side. I really hope I can get back to these eventually because I love SOL manga and these have been a lot of fun so far.

Hello again everyone!
This is my first anniversary of the Read Every Day Challenge, which is exciting! Since it helped me so much last year with building a reading habit and then reading a ton, I’m back again!
I plan to read 30 pages per day in either Japanese, Spanish, or Mandarin.

= read and listened today
= missed day
History has taught us that I’m not very good at doing the Listen Every Day challenge and the Read Every Day challenge at the same time. January is also slated to be a pretty busy month for me, work-wise and personal life-wise. So I’m going to be focusing only on the Read Every Day challenge for January, and I’ll try to add in the Listen Every Day challenge for February. I want to start the aquarium manga I bought a while ago (someone from a previous challenge read this, but I can’t remember who 
) - and also read the rest of 夜の名前を呼んで. Not going to go for anything like a novel for now - that seems like a better project for a future challenge.

Also, here’s my Bookmeter, in case anyone’s interested! ^^
Kicking off in here although new years is a few hours yet for me in this time zone.
I read another chapter of 死体は語る. Since it’s nonfiction and the contents can be disturbing (it’s case files from a coroner) I’ll limit what I say unless someone is curious, but it’s about what you’d expect. It’s one of 4 (minimum) nonfiction books I’m planning to read this year. New year, new genres!

Challenge Plans
This is my first time doing a reading challenge. I really just want to focus on reading even just a few sentences of Japanese each day. I also study Mandarin Chinese, so I’d like to note any progress I make reading in Mandarin as well.
What will I be reading? (Japanese)
I’m about halfway through よつばと volume 2 - I’ve picked it up and put it down multiple times over the last year. So my first big goal is to finish よつばと volume 2. Next I’d like to finish the Crystal Hunters manga series.
Besides よつばと and Crystal Hunters, I have a few other manga 1st volumes and an upper-beginner picture book of Studio Ghibli stories that I will try reading. I bought them over a year ago when my reading level was much lower, so now would be a good time to revisit them to see how much I can comprehend.
I’ll update this section with anything else I end up reading. I also have a study log where I may go into more detail about my reading progress.
Excited to join all of you!

➳ January 1st.
What: ハイキュー！！ volume 1
Pages: 13
Time: 40 minutes.
Happy new year! 2023 is here and I’m starting bright and early with my reading. I noticed the first two volumes of ハイキュー！！ are free on Bookwalker until January 8th, so I figured I’d check it out. I’m going a little slower than usual to pick up new words for my spreadsheet. So far it seems fun, but I’m having the worst time trying to read the furigana over the kanji. The font is tiiiiny and I feel like the quality isn’t all that great either. I’ll keep at it though.
Have a wonderful start of the year!
