Discussion Guidelines

  • Please blur/hide any major events in the current week’s pages (however early they occur), like so:

  • (that’s [spoiler]text here[/spoiler]).

  • If you have a question about grammar, vocab, the story, cultural things or anything else related to the book — ask! There’s no need to be shy. If it’s something you are wondering about, chances are someone else will be thankful you asked first, lots of people enjoy answering questions, you learn something new, and the thread gets more lively. It’s a win-win on all fronts!

I have a hard time with the word バッタ :cricket: , I keep thinking they’re talking about バター :butter:.

The apocalyptic imagery in this chapter is pretty disturbing…

I read your comment before reading the chapter which saved me from any butter related issues. I actually found this one a bit tricky to read, not sure why. Quite a lot of funky (to me) vocab in places. Nearly home now though!

I found them all stealing へムル’s dress slightly disturbing. But it saved them and her and she didn’t seem to mind in the end?…
