Book reading today too - 人狼サバイバル 1 on Kindle. Just a couple of pages. A little is better than nothing!

デスノート - Chapter 3

Again, reading it took like 2,5 hours. There was one page which I managed to read completely on my own without look-ups which made me very happy :slight_smile: Too bad it doesn’t happen too often though :sweat_smile: But I’ll get there one day (hopefully).

Also, despite the fact that I’m only three chapters in, I feel like i’ll never forget the word 心臓麻痺 for the rest of my life lol

  • :cn: 小渝之森 Ch.11
  • ダンジョン飯 1 (71%) - 2 (29%)
  • Christmas Tina :video_game: :cn: – end Ch.7

I don’t think that much about Vol.1 (though not bad), but there is an ongoing club for Vol.2, and after buying… the volume looks interesting.

  • :cn: 小渝之森 Ch.12
  • ダンジョン飯 2 (29-81%)
  • Christmas Tina :video_game: :cn:

Stop at the club’s current week.

(MC) decided to start studying JP, then suddenly want to see the cat.

  • :cn: 小渝之森 Ch.13 :wood:
  • イジらないで、長瀞さん Vol.7-8
  • Christmas Tina :video_game: :cn: – end Ch.8

イジらないで、長瀞さん Vol.7 actually spread over 3-4 days, but I don’t want to track, more 下ネタ, some people may not like. Vol.8 is just today.

Just how long is a :video_game: chapter, I wonder. I try to look up everything, as much as I can tolerate, but still don’t understand many things. (Unlike :jp:, tbh.)

JoJo Part 2 Vol 6 p 41-43

These days I’m doing a lot more chores than I ever expected but it should help make my life easier in the future.

December 28th - Home post

人狼サバイバル 1 on Kindle today too. I only understand 60-70% of what I’m reading, but the more I read the easier it gets. It will be fun to re-read this in a year and see if I understand more then!

December 28th

JoJo Part 7 vol 7 (ch32) p71-89

This chapter is refreshing as far as your average shonen goes. Our protagonist is giving a good reality check as opposed to blind faith that everything will work out. It was turning into a lecture though so I decided sleep would be more emotionally gratifying lol

・誰が勇者を殺したか || 39.66% → 55.30% || Characters read: 15.5k || Progress: 54904 / 99.3k ||

Was following Nijisanji EX Gamers 24h relay stream on youtube before I fell asleep and forgot to post. First time I saw the word ようつべ = YouTube. Saw it on twitter, I was so confused at first. Usually it is ユーチューブ, right. Haha

Back on topic, this book is mysterious :eyes: In a good way. The chapters are short. Usually I’m not good at following a story when it jumps between different viewpoints or timelines, but I feel like I’ve become better at pushing through / going on. In addition, each chapter being short makes it easier to “just one more chapter”.

I wonder if this book perhaps is a bit hard for the IBC? Just a feeling I had. After a certain threshold it becomes hard for me to judge what content is easy or difficult when you know most of the grammar and looking up vocab is second nature at this point. For example, reading Bocchi the Rock is no problem for me, it’s simply a matter of sitting down to get the reading done. I haven’t read many 4koma manga, but I was surprised by how little resistance it was to my reading experience despite all the talk about them being tougher to read because of the denseness. In that regard, Detective Conan is way worse. More like a novel with some extra images, haha.

(For reference, I’ve read the 4koma Urara Meirochou vol. 1 and that was hard because of no furigana and tons of unusual vocab. Then it becomes a pain to do lookups.)

Such a difference to what my update post looks like when I’m not halfasleep :eyes: いいね

Did the 読み物 1 from Quartet 1, Chapter 3 about climbing Mount Fuji + the exercises :slight_smile:

Also managed to read three pages of デスノート. Even though it was only a few pages for some reason it felt really hard today.
