📚📚 Read Japanese Every Day Challenge - Fall 2024 🍁🌰🍎

Japanese Language Reading
1

Welcome to the “Read Japanese Every Day” Challenge, Fall 2024 Edition! :maple_leaf: :chestnut: :apple:

Hello! Here in Japan, we are begging for the cool breeze of fall. Other parts of the Northern Hemisphere, please enjoy your actually seasonal weather. And to folks in the Southern Hemisphere, I hope you can enjoy the leadup to your summer. To those near the equator, I hope the storms don’t hit you bad this year. Regardless of the weather, we can all enjoy a good book.

This Season's Emoji Explanation

The maple leaf is pretty standard fall fair. As for the chestnut, chestnuts have been a fall staple in Japan for ages. Nowadays you can find a lot of seasonal food revolving around them like chestnut bread, anko blended with pureed chestnuts, and even wagashi with chestnuts. One of my favorites is chestnut rice (kurigohan). Here’s an incredibly simple recipe for anyone interested. Apples are also fall fair. It’s popular to go apple picking as a fall outing in Japan. This year’s emoji are pretty simple. I hope you enjoyed this tidbit!

Where does this challenge come from?

Back in the summer of 2021, @Redglare had the great idea of a “Read Every Day” challenge, in which participants challenged themselves to read something in Japanese every day for 2 whole months. Since then and until winter 2024, @Redglare and @windupbird have hosted this challenge every season. Thanks to them, many of us have improved our Japanese and lifestyles! You might notice that I am neither a bird nor glare. I offered to take over the challenge since they’re quite busy (お疲れ様！), but of course they’re welcome to take it back at any time if they want to. I’ll do my best to keep up the encouragement!

Please help us keep this a positive, encouraging, and fun space! Please feel free to bribe encourage fellow participants with cute pet and animal photos or recipes even.

Read Japanese Every Day Challenge - Summer 2024 :beach_umbrella: :watermelon: :cricket_bat_and_ball:

While the name of the challenge is “Read Every Day,” you may have noticed that it also has a season attached. That’s because each challenge only lasts 2 months. Forever would be a long commitment. By having clear start and end dates, it becomes a much more manageable goal. At the end of the challenge, please consider what worked or didn’t work for you. Did you have fun? Then you can take a break or decide to keep going.

Also, please don’t worry about starting late or not completing the challenge! Life happens. This is an open opportunity for everyone who wants to set some reading goals. Everyone is welcome. Some participants have even started tracking their reading in other languages.

As @Redglare has said:

This is a thread for people who:
:bookmark: want to spend time reading a bunch this fall
:bookmark: want to improve their reading speed and comprehension
:bookmark: want to hold themselves accountable and have a place to document their progress
:bookmark: simply want to join in on the challenge of reading every day for two or so months :books: :books:

To add onto that, this is also a thread for people who want to track or talk about their reading too. If you’d like a computer to do most of your tracking, please check out Natively.

Time frame: October 1 - November 30

Again, late starts are totally welcome! Usually people will continue posting through December and some may give some updates even later. It’s all good! You can start and finish your personal challenge at any point during that time, and shorten or lengthen the challenge to the time period that works best for you. Personally, I usually extend my reading into the 3rd month since I find these challenges have been great at helping me reach my annual reading goals.

As @windupbird has said

Your reading materials can be whatever you want, be it manga, light novels, books, visual novels, magazines, graded readers, satori reader, Japanese webpages/blogs, or Japanese games - you name it, anything goes as long as it is something in Japanese :jp: :durtle_the_explorer: “Reading” can be interpreted creatively, if that helps keep you motivated - for example, some people have counted reading Japanese subtitles as reading some days. In general, we are a pretty flexible and forgiving bunch :wink:

Need help finding something to read? Check these threads out!

Reading the same book with others can be pretty motivating. It’s also easier to ask about grammar or vocab, so how about joining a book club? If you don’t want to join, you could always take it as a recommended book instead. A list of book clubs can be found here:

More formatting things… Do you want centered text?

Do you want to hide books you’re reading but didn’t read on a particular day? For example, book club books?

to be updated when I feel like it

I don’t know if I’ll do a lot of precise record keeping this challenge. This year’s been quite the shitshow for a variety of reasons and I feel like there’s not too much point of doing an exact record like I had done in previous years. I do want to mark off the days that I do read though so I can get a reading streak back. I love Japanese, I love Japan, and I love reading. I want to get back into things and I know having a better handle on Japanese will make it easier to keep living here too. Who knows what the future has in store but I hope it’ll work out.

I took a break from x-every-day challenges for the summer months and now I’m extra ready to dive back in for fall. I’ve more or less been reading every day regardless of joining a challenge, but we’re getting down into the final months of the year with this one! I have seven book bingo categories still open and only three months to fill them… time to get reading :raised_hands:

I’ll be doing a writing challenge in November and I’d like to focus on that as much as I can, so my reading challenge will be for October only. For what to read, I want to start reading some higher level manga long-term. First thing to do is catch up with とんがり帽子.

Mostly I’m just working on not falling any further behind on the book clubs I’m in, but I’ve also a lot of in-progress books I might read a little of here and there. I have very deliberately made my goal “keep pace” instead of “catch up” to reduce some of the pressure I’ve been putting on myself.

I’m in of course! The spring and summer challenges were a great motivation. Not stopping now!

Not sure what I’m going to read. Probably a few VNs, maybe a couple of books and manga, we’ll see. Some days I have a lot of time and can read for hours, some days I have just a couple of minutes before bed. The main thing is to keep reading every day, even if it’s just a little bit!

Reading:
VNs:
The Expression Amrilato
Vampire’s Melody
Aokana
The Fruit of Grisaia

Books
極寒の雪山を脱出せよ
人狼サバイバル 1 絶体絶命! 伯爵の人狼ゲーム!

Manga
君と綴るうたかた
ひとりぼっちの○○生活
Flying Witch vol 1
