A little Kirakira Monstars and a little Vampire’s Melody today. After reading Vampire’s Melody, Kirakira Monstars suddenly looks very easy! I really enjoy reading VNs made for native speakers though.

Today I played another big chunk of Ni No Kuni and tamed another forest guardian, found the desert city, reunited a family and recruited the second party member. It’s hard to judge my progress. By story structure, it could be like 40% through as we’ve had a forest zone, a desert zone, and been told about a water zone and whatever is on the other side of that volcano (probably a fire/wasteland zone) which would fit narratively, and also by quest numbering I’m on 20 of 50-ish, but also it feels super late to be recruiting a second companion. I’m not expecting this to be a long game, which I guess is throwing off my sense of progression, because parts of the experience are telling me I’m quite far along and others are telling me I’m in the beginning.

26th november :fireworks:

two more chapters of 3月のライオン and only the second shogi column this volume, plus some more suspect x too! seems like yukawa and kusanagi’s trouble in paradise has been resolved, good for them. i didn’t read any men at arms yesterday but i did get out of my writing slump, so swings and roundabouts

today’s nhk article was this one (unlawful harry potter merch, but not in the way you’re thinking) plus the entries on およそ and をよそに in aDoAJG

idk how you define long, but how long to beat has it at somewhere in the realm of 50 hours (assuming it’s this one)

A little Kirakira Monstars today too. The more I read, the easier it gets! Still not easy, but not impossibly hard either.

Today was another bunch of side questing in Ni No Kuni as I did most of the side quests in the desert area (minus one that requires either a bunch of grinding for a rare drop, or just getting a new spell to go to the next area that I probably need to do the temple for first). I don’t have to much to comment on language wise as it’s all pretty easy stuff right though, other than I suspect the enemy type こどもアラビン probably did not get a super literal name translation for the English version, lol.

Wasn’t intending to start reading again as such just yet, but the onsen relaxation room had sweetness and lightning 7, so read a chapter casually

three more chapters of 3月のライオン and finished the volume! doing three was still tiring (there were two shogi columns too) but there was an odd number of chapters so i pushed through. still going with suspect x too. edit: i want to keep reading men at arms :sob:
