Demon Sword Maiden Chapter 697

With the reorganisation of my light novels and anime collection now officially complete…
I can say I need to re-reorganise them.

As I feared, there is no space for more light novels in their current configuration.
This is a marked improvement over the previous arrangement though, where I just had piles of light novels around my room which I had to move once in a while.
They are now all on shelves, which is great. But there’s no room for more of them…
So what I think I need to do is remove the anime figures from their current shelves and put them on one of my larger shelves.
Although this will reduce their displayability, it will let me use the display shelves for storing the light novels that need less thick shelves.

Demon Sword Maiden Chapter 696

Genshin 3.2 is almost upon us!
Apparently the pre-install is 8GB or so, according to what was said on discord.
Wow.

Anyway, Happy Halloween everyone!
Some of you are probably like “it was halloween yesterday you fool!”
Which may be true, but for me it’s Halloween today!

Not that it matters much, the kids ate almost all the snacks today.
Hopefully there are still some to hand out tomorrow.

Automata Maid Chapter 45

The latest gigguk video reminded me of that time I almost wrote and created a visual novel.
I wrote the common route and the outline for two of the four girls.
I think it was four girls…

My memory is hazy.
The entire thing was about AI girls though, and it had two endings per girl.
Neither ending per girl was bad though, it was just that the same choice was presented at the end with different outcomes.

Automata Maid Chapter 44

These next couple of chapters while editing actually caused me to read ahead.
It’s actually pretty rare for me to want to read ahead, usually because I like editing and giving my opinions on things at the same time.

If I read ahead it means I’ve already read it by the time I do my editing pass.
So yeah sorry guys, this was a big cliffhanger and I went ahead of you all. No shame.
Of course, you too could read ahead by joining the patreon master race.

Swordsman’s Re:START Chapter 112

I did some reorganising of my light novel and other related anime collection shelves today to try and fit everything on.

On one hand I succeeded.
On the other hand I realised I messed up half way in my choices of arrangements.
I used my really large shelf for storing some manga and light novels.
While I used my bookshelves to store my anime figures.

For what I currently have, this is very presentable.
The problem is I can’t fit any more light novels, manga or figures on any shelf in this configuration.
So when I get more books I will have to swap the shelves they’re on to make space.
Oh well.

Swordsman’s Re:START Chapter 111

Depending on where you are in the world it may be Halloween today.
Actually for me Halloween is tomorrow, but this site is many hours ahead so…
It won’t be Halloween for me when this goes live, but it will for some people.

At least I can copy and paste this for tomorrow’s chapter of Maiden.
Saves me having to come up with a pre-chapter ramble!
This is called working smarter not harder.

Demon Sword Maiden Chapter 695

I would like to offer my opinion on the Bayonetta situation.
Hellena Taylor is scum.
To not only lie by omission, but also attempt to drag someone else through the mud for it…
The worst kind of scum.

Using a genuine issue in the industry to create clout for yourself?
Scum.

Terrible person.
So glad I’m not a fan of this “blockbuster” niche franchise.

Demon Sword Maiden Chapter 694

I started trying to read an original English web novel yesterday and the writing was so painfully cringe it was horrendous.
Look I’m all for overpowered self insert fantasy fulfilment novels.
In fact they might even be my favourite type.

But there is something seriously wrong with your writing if the third chapter has a woman share a bed with the protagonist within an hour of them meeting, and then suddenly develop some weird dependency on the protagonist within a day of them meeting.
It’s just bad character writing.
Anyway, wouldn’t recommend it.

Demon Sword Maiden Chapter 692

Recently I have been super struggling to find anything decent to read.
It’s like for some reason every web novel that I read has just started to evaporate…
I guess the translators are dropping them or the authors are…
Well the actual most likely reason is now that the world is returning to normal after all the lockdowns everyones too busy to write and translate full time.

It’s a shame though because I need stuff to reeeeead.
Which is annoying.
Or maybe I’ve just got pickier in my tastes?

Automata Maid Chapter 43 Part 1

Welp time for me to hurry up and publish these chapters before it’s too late.
I ran over a bit because I got distracted watching some documentaries lately.
I’m not sure how I ended up on that side of youtube though… it was all about workplace safety.
I think I watched like one video on workplace safety hazards and then youtube jumped on me with suggestions.

The Algorithm(tm) is scary!

Swordsman’s Re:START Chapter 110

I finally uploaded the update for my Stellaris mod.
And also fixed a bug I didn’t even know was a thing for ages because nobody pointed it out to me!
Argh so annoying, it’s a really serious one too I just never noticed because I haven’t had time to play a game with the conditions needed to trigger it…
Oh well.
I fixed it now, hopefully it’s not too serious.

Luckily I caught it before my planned stream though… because that would have met the conditions to trigger that bug.

Anyway if you have Stellaris go download my mod, it got the largest update ever recently!
You could also download my other mod, that has some nice vanilla expansion content.

Swordsman’s Re:START Chapter 109

Last night I finally finished Girlfriend, Girlfriend after leaving the final few episodes on hold for ages.
That anime just somehow perfectly hits my preference of comedy and romance, it was great fun to watch, so glad a sequel was announced.
Hopefully this is the start of a trend in me clearing my massive backlog of anime!

Also fun fact, this month I finally exceeded 10,000 total episodes of anime watched!
10,000!
You can go ahead and call me a weeb now.
