I know, right? It was already really funny in the manga, but hearing the voices takes it to a whole other level. And it’s so well done too!
And man, since making the nomination post, I’m getting more and more excited about reading Ruri Dragon. If it doesn’t win, I’ll probably just start reading it on my own immediately after the poll closes.
Nice, grats! Simple or not, that’s always a great feeling.
If you plan on reading it either way it’s currently like $10 on manga republic (at least for the US and this includes the shipping!) Ruri Dragon The voice over of the totally unbothered teacher really sold me on it
If you are interested in reading along with the Absolute Beginner Book Club, then please feel free to vote in this poll!
The list of options is below. The titles are hyperlinked to their respective nomination posts, which contains more information about the book as well as some sample pages.
The difficulty rating is based on feedback from folks looking at those sample pages, and so is very approximate! A score of 3 is considered to be “just right” for the club, with higher scores being a touch more difficult, and lower scores being easier, but since it is approximate, keep in mind that the scores may not be exact!
You have up to 3 votes, which can be changed up until the poll closes. I will keep the poll open until January 7th, one week from now.
The intended start date for the next book is February 18th, 2023.
I’m more surprised by our little wolf working her way up through the poll. In the beginning almost nobody voted for Ookami-chan, and at least right now it’s on second place after a hard fight!
There are lots of things I’d like to read in the nominations at the moment, so it was quite tough to choose which 3 to vote for!
I’ll be really happy if it ends up being Ruri next, and then Ookami-chan since they are only 1-2 volumes long and I’m pretty overloaded with book clubs at the moment, but I just can’t stop myself from joining more
