Editor for and Demon Sword Maiden!
Gentrified NEET and siscon.
Currently looking for an imouto. Applicants must be under the age of 16, cute and with long hair.
Optional traits are: Neko, princess and/or maid.
I got very occupied today.
There were a large number of guests, so I had to engage in helping with housework.
A terrible terrible ordeal, I assure you.
It was quite bothersome.
Okay, so I basically had to cook dinner for myself and my brother, it wasn’t the end of the world.
And I had to do a couple of shopping trips for supplies, again, not a big deal. I even got myself some snacks.
Someone remind me to check a different book site for my light novels.
But amazon and my backup are being a royal pain with imports lately.
I might need to find a place that deals in light novels properly…
Or at least a place that deals in international books specifically.
Anyway, I’ll figure something out, I just needed to do it sooner rather than later.
Also, in site time it should be December, I can’t believe I forgot to mention that.
PADORU PADORU!
You know this novel jumped from existential horror and medical emergency level world altering stuff to a school drama again…
I have no idea what it is trying to be.
I get confused just trying to comprehend the flow.
I will just accept this as a roller coaster and let myself be dragged along for the ride.
Hope for some thrills on the way.
That sort of deal.
I had to accept a painful reality today…
I couldn’t get my waifu in the gacha without spending money. I refused to spend that much money.
It was a moment of sacrifice.
Join with me in mourning my loss…
Well, hopefully I will get spooked by her or something I guess?
If you haven’t read it yet, there’s an important announcement over on our discord or patreon.
It concerns some other novels on this site, not this one.
I won’t link it because of that, but if you read multiple novels here go check it out so you can see if it has impact on you.
Some novels will be ending soon, some getting release rate drops, some might be getting more chapters etc.
Well, it’s mostly because of translator shuffle, you know how it is.
The writer of Heaven Burns Red won’t abandon his fixation on depression it seems.
I did an event set between Chapter 2 and 3 and one of the characters basically straight up said “Oh don’t worry, things won’t get any better.”
Great.
More suffering!
Just how awful are things in this game?!
WHERE IS THE JOY?!
BRING BACK MY HAPPINESS FROM DUMB JOKES!
I saw a tweet today that was like “The sheer autism that will be released when a new GFL2 player asks for the lore will be enough to cause minor brain damage” or some equivalent.
And I was like, yeah that checks out.
The game does escalate quite dramatically, and the lore is… well it’s certainly book worthy.
The documents that track it are hundreds of pages long. Utterly incredible work by those guys.
Lore nerds, my hat comes off to you.
This chapter was an experience…
I am starting to get increasingly concerned by everything going on in this plot…
In all honestly I think this novel has gone a bit off the rails for my exact preference.
Well, it’s not gone bad yet though, it’s just not what I would read it for.
Anyway, it’s not like I am dropping this or anything either, so I don’t know why I am saying it at all.
Yesterday I was very happy.
The lag that had been plaguing the wordpress backend of this site vanished!
Today I was very sad.
The lag that had finally vanished came back…
I had one day of joy.
Such is the law of the universe I guess.
The interludes continue!
I do like POV switches in novels like this, but I am not entirely sure on my feelings with how this author handles them.
On one hand they’re very necessary and elucidate a lot of context, but they take up a lot of time too.
I think I would like it more if there were frequent short switches rather than few but very long switches?
Hm, actually just ignore this ramble, I am not sure at all how I feel about it.
Instead, let me talk about the weather, like a true British person… it is very windy today.
While I was editing this I got a Stellaris board game update…
I am just so ready for this game to come, honestly my enthusiasm for it has ran out and I just want it in my hands so it’s over with.
Well, I still want to play it, and maybe when I do get it my enthusiasm will reignite?
It just spent so long in production….. years…..
Anyway, I should get it by late next year it seems, finally.
Literally years.
Kickstarter, it’s a beast isn’t it?
The gacha was cruel to me.
Well, to be fair, 60 pulls with a 0.9% chance was basically like shooting blind anyway…
But!
I still had some hope!
Just a little hope!
I am unloved by my waifu in this game…
It brings me pain.
And to add insult to injury, she’s the repeatable raid boss for this event…
I am forced to fight the love of my life.
I am causing pain for my friend by forcing them to witness my Heaven Burns Red account…
Specifically the way I have not levelled the optimal characters at all.
And have meta units left in the dust.
And just keep having Auto do all the gameplay for me.
I mean, I just want to read the story!
Speaking of story- Man Chapter 2 emotionally destroyed me…
I was not prepared for that. I should have known what to expect from the writer of Angel Beats though.
My mum came home today with two chocolate advent calendars.
And it made me realise, wow, it’s really that season already…
In fact as I type this I can feel my radiator next to me heating up.
Winter is upon us.
Well, almost winter.
It’s basically winter.
