Today I finally got around to installing the jp version of project sekai, a little bit thanks to @PotatoDancer’s prompting
Bit of work to get it set up but once I got going it’s been smooth sailing. I have no real way of tracking reading time or character counts in a game which is mostly playing a rhythm game, so if I happen read some story chapters during that day, I’ll just note them here. Chapters are fairly short VN sections, maybe 5-10 minutes each, but there are a lot of them. Hundreds, at least, counting all the groups and all the event stories. Even just reading all the stuff in 1 band main story took me quite a while when I first played in english. Decided to start with nightcord this time.
jp server impressions that aren't related to language learning
oh my GOD the UI is so much cleaner. Score screen having map difficulty is nice too, but just the whole UI experience is much cleaner in general. It gives you a lot more stuff to start out with, I had enough song cards to get 30 songs, compared to like maybe 2-3 on the en server? I’m not super invested in the gacha part of the game, but the current banner has some crazy good looking cards.
Also I’m pretty sure the jp server has a whole new note type??? They’re like the wacca or deemo yellow hold notes without a necessary start or end judgement. You just have to already be holding the note for the ticks, and I’m pretty sure I never played any songs on the en server that had these notes.
Once I got through the new phone hiccups of offset calibration, I think this phone is a lot nicer for playing rhythm games. Bigger screens I normally hate for normal use, but for games it’s kinda nice
Having trouble getting this phone to charge though, and it also has no headphone jack, which makes playing a bit of a pain.
Replies n Bookwalker Stuff
That too!!! I only use it to read in the web browser, and it’s so slow. Like you said, if I want to flip ahead to see how close I am to finishing a chapter, I only can skip maybe 2-3 pages ahead before it starts needing a few full seconds to load pages!! Another one I’ve run into is sometimes books that have images on pages with text are not treated as text, but that might be a publisher/formatting thing. The version of 化物語(上)on bookwalker just doesn’t have any highlightable text at all though. I think that is not a book that I will be trying to read without an easy way to look stuff up 
Also no dark mode reader! I’ve noticed I can read much longer on aozora or ttsu because my eyes get tired less quickly 
It looks so gooood
Can’t wait for this I’m so excited
yay climbing! 
マリア様がみてる, Maria Watches Over Us. Doesn’t look like there’s an official translation of the light novels (that I can find, anyway, I don’t read lns in english so I don’t really know where to look for ), but there is an anime adaptation that got 4 seasons. My understanding is that if you want to point to where 2000s shoujo gets its big focus on"yuri subtext" from, you can point to this series for re-popularizing it and the whole Class S genre. Idk how much I completely buy that with stuff like Utena coming out solidly before it, but it’s in that mix of stuff for sure
