I said it on my DSM posts but I should say it here too!
We have two bonus chapters for you to celebrate pride month!
Woop woop!

Now I actually don’t know if this novel will include any yuri…
so it may not be entirely fitting.
But who cares about that, it’s free chapters!

So J-Novel managed to get Rebuild World.
I’m on the fence about reading this one.
On one hand the setting is really really interesting.
I’m all for more SciFi and holographic AIs are great.

But the problem is the story is a little negative, not bad. Just like… darker?
Not sure how to explain.

J-Novel are currently do their new release announcements, and there’s some in here that I love! I have so much hype for them.
For example:

Now I’m a Demon Lord! Happily Ever After with Monster Girls in My Dungeon. Because that manga was great, I am so happy to see the novel picked up.

Of course, I’d never be content with a measly single isekai. Luckily for me there’s also Oversummoned, Overpowered, and Over It! This novel is similar to a concept I had about a protagonist who gets summoned to three different world, and benefits with new powers and equipment each time. At least up until his little sister is summoned instead! Launch the isekai rescue project! Of course this novel is different, but the inspiration is there.

And of course I can’t miss Reincarnated as my Gag Character! because that character concept is straight out of my fantasies too haha.
We’ll see what else is licensed as I edit.

Hello humans.
You know I have completely lost track of which novels I have spoken about this on by now so uh, hurray.
I need to start a new note folder just for tracking these.
Anyway as you may or may not know, I commission a lot of art for the main heroine of the novel I will eventually one day write probably maybe.
Well, recently one of those commissions was from a popular Evangelion and Xenoblade fanartist.
The concept was “draw my character in a scifi style” and boy did they deliver.

Take a look here.
Isn’t she gorgeous?!
It was completed exactly on my birthday too.

Hello everyone!
So in honour of the trusty, and well beloved, regular reader of this site known as Kowtoww I have decided to spam as many editor comments as possible for this next couple of chapters.
I apologise to those who liked the previous rate, but I also hope that those that love my little comments are able to enjoy these mass produced ones just as much!
In the meantime let us continue with this chapter.

Oh right, I should mention it’s almost 2am so my brain filter isn’t working.
Oh and I’m 25 now.
That makes me elderly by internet standards. Respect me.

The new Stellaris DLC is out.
I almost bought it straight away.
But I think I might hold out until the end of the month, just to be safe.
Or maybe I will buy it on my birthday this Thursday.

I opened up these two chapters to edit and was like “holy hell, we reached Chapter 64 already?”
I’m not sure why that was such a shock to me but it is apparently.
I must have totally tuned out for a dozen chapters and not realised we ever went over fifty or something.

Or maybe I’m just tired.

One of the artists I was on the waiting list for has been forced to cancel my commission.
It’s a little upsetting, but I completely understand their position.
I have been on the list for over half a year now, and their list isn’t getting any smaller between their free time, official work and commissions.
It’s sad because I was looking forward to it, but also, the concept I had set aside for them to work on has now been freed up for someone else to work on without me having to wait and hope.

So there’s a silver lining at least.

I thought things were going well but it turns out I’m rather struggling to adapt to working.
My mindset of trying to avoid problems and getting in peoples way is causing me to get experience slowly.
And due to my lack of experience and trying to avoid getting in the way, they’re perceiving me as slacking off.
I can see why it would appear that way, because I am trying to hide away from everyone else, but the reasoning is backwards.

I’m not hiding to slack off, I’m slacking off because I can’t find things to do without getting in the way.
And the one task they did deliberately assign me I apparently took too long doing, and I’m still not entirely sure how I could have done it faster.

I have six months of placement time guaranteed but I definitely think I will be going back to job hunting after this, and as it stands my anxiety for working has only increased.

My friends are conspiring to get me into Love Live.
It’s very scary.
But my loyalty to Idolmaster will see me through!

Even if Eutopia is a good song.

Okay I was aiming for no cliffhangers but how I was supposed to know the exam would be so wild…
Inadvertently I think I gave an even bigger cliffhanger…

It’s almost 2am
It took me almost an hour to edit these 10 chapters.
Learn to appreciate the editing team.
Also once again my powerful thoughts go out the translation team who have to spend even longer on these chapters than I do.
