I only read the Manga! Never watched the anime but it was so good. i love Fuu too but Hikaru was definitely my favorite. I cried so hard reading the series its so so good. I bought the artbook for it in Japan a while back, I’ll try and take a picture of it when I get home. It was my first manga that I read so it means a lot to me.

Congratulations :partying_face: :partying_face: :partying_face:

It’s an amazing accomplishment and achievement that you reached :partying_face:

Your post delivers a very important message and remind us that we’re all humans (not machines) who are trying to do our best to achieve some goals we’re dreaming about. We should remind ourselves to treat ourselves as humans too :grin:

There are so many takeaways from your post. You gave me hope and inspiration to continue on this journey, even if it takes longer than expected. The point where I convinced myself that wanikani is what’s gonna teach me all of the Japanese language, you just summarized it in a better way on how it’s a key to open the different doors to our desired distances and not the distance itself.

I see that you also enjoyed atomic habits :face_with_hand_over_mouth: it’s a fascinating book that changed my life a couple of years back forever. It helped me build habits and build streaks too. It opened my eyes on so many things and I’m forever grateful to it.

Congratulations again and may you have all the wisdom and guidance you may need on your journey :folded_hands:

I can say the same about you! We’ve seen each other here and there during this “nice durtling time” (I love how you wrote this!)… :durtle: Weren’t you also in the Harry Potter bookclub? :high_voltage: :green_book: After lots of starts and stops, a while ago I finally got to chapter 6! :sweat_smile: :turtle:

That cake is amazing and totally appropriate! :heart_eyes: Because…

Although I haven’t played it in a while, I also went through that phase! :joy: Such a lovely game! :green_heart:

Hikaru is a ball of sunlight! :sun: :smiling_face:

That’s so cool! :star_struck: :smiling_face_with_sunglasses: I remember being a teen and fangirling with my friends over the artbook: we’d search online and find a few pictures of it, and because it was the dial-up internet, each picture would load slowly, one pixel line at a time… :snail: :sweat_smile:

Well said, I couldn’t agree more! :relieved_face: :clap:

Absolutely! Even if takes longer, may it be an interesting and enjoyable journey! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
