Reading Vol. 12・ふらいんぐうぃっち・Flying Witch (Beginner Book Club) 🧹

… or not, if we keep reading the series as an offshoot :stuck_out_tongue:

That’s a funny way to spell “when”.

:joy: I already own volume 2 from back when I first read it. Is there enough interest though? I don’t think it’s worth continuing if only a couple of people want to - Aria worked well because there was quite a substantial group I can’t believe I’m going to miss it all :sob:. Perhaps it’s poll time :wink:

IT’S ALWAYS POLL TIME!

Ahem.

Yes, I think it would be nice to make sure. In fact, we will probably need to put some break to make sure people have time to get the next book(s).

My suggestion for a poll of Aria readers:

After finishing Aria, what will you read?

  • Flying Witch with the book club.
  • Flying Witch alongside the book club.
  • Flying Witch utilizing the book club.
  • Flying Witch after catching up on volume one.

That should help with readership count =D

Edit: At the very least, we’ll get a single thread for discussion of unscheduled reading of the series.

Indeed, and it would probably be good to get into the next pick a bit before starting something new. I actually think a new year start might work well, or

:wink: but of course this is prime poll material too.

I’ll gauge interest when I put up the final week’s discussion thread :+1:

I’d love to keep reding it! I was already thinking of ordering vol 2 this upcoming week, so I’m definitely in if you guys are doing this :grin:

I ordered the whole set when I ordered vol 1… but I’m so slow at reading, I don’t think I can do everything else and read vol 2 and the next book (which looked daunting - maybe it’s not that hard…have to find out)…at the same time.

I would love to keep reading but I’d have to probably not jump into the next book … Oh so much to read so little time! If only I was fluent already…

Waiting until the new year for continuing Flying Witch (as an offshoot club) does have a few advantages:

  • Gives time to buy the final seven second volumes for those reading physical.
  • We’ll be a few weeks into 「ふしぎな町」, so everyone will have an idea of whether they can handle more Flying Witch on top of that.
  • I didn’t check on overlap between Aria readers and Flying Witch readers, but it looks like Aria wraps up on in the latter half of January.
  • Many people may be preoccupied with larger holiday celebrations in December.

Your first real book will always be hard at first. Just stick with it and ask questions and it’ll be a great learning experience. :slight_smile:

Hahaa I’m on the same boat, but I bought the ebook already so there is no going back now :grimacing::sweat_smile:

I might be interested in reading past volume 1, too.

I’d definitely be interested, though I can neither confirm nor deny whether or not I already bought all the released volumes back when the first book was chosen.

I have the second volume since that was also available for free with the first volume. The series isn’t bad, but I’m not sure I care enough to keep reading.

This is totally unrelated to this thread, but I couldn’t figure out where else to ask and at least I won’t piss off the OP ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

pssssst, @Omun, you just got the Jamurtle too, right? Do you have any idea what it’s for?! Everyone else got it like a year ago…

I seemed to have gotten mine right after a mod dropped a like for me answering a question from a level 1 user on how to type certain kana. I think you answered there too, with links to the FAQ. Maybe they’re trying to show more appreciation for member helping out. I also got one recently after flagging a topic that was against forum rules.

I am very okay with that if so!

Dun DUN DUN!

Final week is here!

I’m at a wedding this weekend, so will do polls about continuing and rating this volume and so on on Sunday :blush:

Wow, I literally just caught up after a few weeks of being behind. Nice timing.
Now I just have to do the same with キッチン :shushing_face:
