read a full 36 pages of ใ™ใใจใ‚‚ which was probably slightly too many but i got really into it. kind of curious where itโ€™s going to end up cos it kinda seems like itโ€™s not really going to end up anywhere :sweat_smile: as part of that ended up reading this article on the difference between ๆœ€ไธญ(ใ•ใ„ใกใ‚…ใ†) and ๆœ€ไธญ(ใ•ใชใ‹) (and ๆœ€ไธญ(ใ‚‚ใชใ‹) but that was just a happy accident).

todayโ€™s nhk article was this one, plus the entry on ใจใ“ใ‚ใŒ and ใจใ‚‚ in aDoIJG
