Wuiii, finished another book in a week 
Well done 
Book thoughts
One of the last chapters from Wilfried’s point of view showed that he realized he has been having the wrong mindset regarding his position as the next アウブ. People are starting to doubt whether he’s really the next one. He’s starting to regard Rozemyne as annoying and that she should be doing more for him. And the fact that Ferdinand requires only the best from Rozemyne, but not from him (in terms of achievements and grades). I can see it, Wilfried is going to be demanding and it is not going to be good for their relationship. Hopefully it doesn’t turn into a disaster. Maybe it’s going to cause a split between Rozemyne and Wilfried, and then Hannelore can be with him instead 
? 興味深いね
Edit: and oh! The fact that he has developed… what to call it, being able to sense other people’s magic, but Rozemyne has yet to (question mark? She did kinda sense Ferdinand’s magic in book 21 ). So it’s entirely possible Wilfried’s magic is just way lower than hers, since it seems like people can only detect/sense a reaction from people with similar amounts of magic as themselves. So whether Rozemyne has or has not developed that sense is hard to say. At least we know she hasn’t given much thought to it since book 21.

Du Chinese story (about 包拯) hasn’t completely published yet, still at 20. I gunned this one while still having 18 episodes, so probably not publishing too fast.

Yesterday I finished the game Famicom Detective Club Emio for Switch in japanese. The game had some pacing issues there was hardly anything happening in the beginning of the game. Every scene felt a little too long and then the game pretty much came surprising to an end. That was a little weird also there was a epilogue which answered some of the open questions and there was an anime episode at the end but without subtitles. The spoken japanese in the anime was easy to understand no big deal.
I got the japanese version of the game but unlike the previous entries you could play it in english if you have the system language set to english. It was not very hard to play in japanese the language is around N3 level but to finish the game in japanese you sometimes need to write things in japanese. There is no need for patches the whole game is on the switch cart I didn’t encounter any bugs.

Finished all the short stories from 時をかける少女, one about a brother turned into a cow and thinking “man, how do i do my homework now” and another one about two guys going home on some dark pathway and scaring each other with youkais and foxes. Also an afterword about How Epic The Book Is, but now that I think about it, I agree more with the fellas from the book club telling that it was a bit of a slog

Started reading the 魔女の宅急便 (bought all the books, Might As Well Start Reading Them), but lookups are still much more convenient with VN, so maybe I’ll concentrate on that first to cement the core vocab

So I flew back from holiday on Monday, back at work Tuesday. Haven’t done great since I got back!
I’m currently in 9 clubs, with 5 manga that I’m up to date with and the IBC where I’m ahead. The other 3 clubs have finished, so my aim this week (when I’m on a run of night shifts) is just to stay up to date with current clubs and slowly try to finish the others. I might try to finish 変な家 early if feeling inspired.
