I randomly felt like checking an anime store website today and they were having a competition to win a Princess Principal blu-ray.
Naturally I couldn’t turn down the chance to enter.
Don’t expect me to tell you where either, what you think I’m stupid enough to increase my competition?
Never.
I will optimise my chances via exercising silence.
I completely messed up today, I got so engrossed in reading I completely forgot to do both my Genshin daily commissions and upload the update to my Stellaris mod.
Well the Stellaris mod can be done tomorrow after work.
Neither of these would be too bad if it weren’t for the fact it’s also 3am! And I have to get up for work tomorrow!
Light novels… are dangerous.
Anyway, here is your first chapter for the day, look forward to it, because some hype is about to go down… or up. Well get hyped either way.
That last chapter ended on a pretty heavy note didn’t it?
I wonder if Lily will step in to give a hand, after all it’s a damsel in distress!
Or maybe this is just one of those characters the author will forget about with time.
Let’s see what happens anyway, you never know with this novel.
Sometimes it does the most random things on whimsical fancies.
I have new artwork underway!
Basically I spoke to an artist last year about maybe doing a commission one time if they ever wanted to accept one.
They messaged me a few days back saying they’d be willing if I was still interesting.
Of course I said yes.
Look forward to this one, it’ll be very unique. None of you will guess the content.
I’m looking forward to it.
I wish that I could read manga on my kindle without it looking low quality.
I’d buy so many, and not have to worry about the huge delays in shipping.
My Arpeggio is still way behind schedule with no delivery at all in sight. Alas, nothing I can do to fix that.
We’re getting a lot of fanart recently.
Not only did I commission the one for this novel.
But we also got two for Automata Maid and one for Swordsman’s ReStart.
That’s like four this month alone!
Wow, talk about crazy.
Guess we’re entering a new era of fan content now.
Always liked fanart though.
So the hololive boys, holostars, group got revealed.
Honestly I am… underwhelmed.
The character concepts are all great, don’t get me wrong. Like, if I wanted to be a vtuber I 100% would have wanted to be in this lineup.
…but the designs feel really cluttered.
It’s similar to the Irys problem.
I think they botched the models, my apologies to the artists who created them.
But they’re really overdone and all of them are generic pretty boys.
Killer heatwave made work interesting today, barely survived but it was an interesting event.
There wasn’t much to do that didn’t involve ridiculous temperatures.
We actually had to close the top floor because the metal roof was just causing everything to bake inside.
But yeah the things to do for that day were uh… unideal for the heat.
They were either involving being outside, or being in the hottest rooms of the top floor.
Had to give up on those.
In the previous pre-chapter ramble I was too busy complaining about my inevitable demise at the hands of weather conditions that I forgot to say that the fanart is completed, and has been available for viewing in the patreon channel of the discord!
You too can get early access to it buy following this link to the patreon and signing up.
It’ll automatically direct you towards the discord server and you can access the patreon content there!
It’s some good artwork I must say.
I’ll upload it for free eventually soon, once I have finished the short story I am writing to go with it (Sorry the new Genshin event is my priority because Fischl).
If you are reading this, then I have probably died by now.
News has reached me that temperatures are expected to exceed 30 degrees today.
That’s a full ten degrees above my personal temperature tolerance.
Yes, I am destined to die.
Of course, even with those numbers I don’t have the worst of it. My condolences to those who live in the heat island known as London.
Ah, the UK is doomed.
As I write this preparing for the heatwave, you will read this roughly about the time I have to walk home from work. When the sun is at its peak.
Please, send your thoughts and prayers for this humble editor.
It’s really funny I started watching Isekai Drugstore yesterday, then today Isekai Pharmacy started airing and it was just like.
“Wow that is seriously a coincidence.”
Also Pharmacy is miles better. To an impossible degree.
Drugstore is just so… cookie cutter.
Well maybe it’ll pick up? Ghost girl is cute.
I am exhausted and in pain and cutting corners.
Look I have work tomorrow and I feel like a zombie right now.
Cut me some slack.
Hopefully I get covid or something and can claim time off haha.
I didn’t think it possible but Slime Sage’s anime somehow managed to make the guy more boring than ever imaginable.
It really goes to show that generic protagonists only work because 70% of their character is internal monologue.
When you put them in anime it just… becomes dull.
Well they managed to make him even more dull in the anime because he barely speaks at all.
Even Princess Connects protagonist had more personality.
