漫画 本好きの下剋上~司書になるためには手段を選んでいられません~第一部「本がないなら作ればいい！」(Manga Part 1) #2
La petite faiseuse de livres, Tome 2
Myne has finally started to adjust to her new life... but once a bookworm, always a bookworm. As winter sets in, there are historical methodologies to try: papyrus, clay tablets... anything that can hold letters and words. Even if it means getting well enough to visit the forest! But first there are chores to do and mythical fruits to cook.
Fortunately, Myne has an ally in Otto, her father's paperwork-swamped colleague. Can he teach her how to read and write in this world and put her to work somewhere that will advance her goals and status? Or will she be stuck as a poor, illiterate girl forever?

On avance doucement dans l’intrigue générale mais c’est vraiment chou et prenant !

This is very cute and done well, but I don't think I'll continue on with the series.
While it is an interesting premise for an isekai, it's not doing anything super interesting for me to stick with. Like yeah, she made a basket. And then she made pancakes. And she's learning to read a write. Usually I'm all for the slower paced slice of life of it all, but it's not working for me here.
I'd still recommend this series to at least try out!

Papiros, tablillas de arcilla... ¡Myne está decidida a tener un libro!
October 27, 2021
One of the fascinating elements of this series is how the protagonist has retained the knowledge of her previous life and uses it to solve problems in her present reality. That plus having to deal with her physical limitations makes this another series where I'm trying to figure out ahead of the protagonist how I would deal with the situations she finds herself in--all having to navigate being a part of a brand new family who has no idea she isn't the soul they think she is! I'm hooked now, and got the rest of the series from my library! Can't wait to see what happens!

Je remercie les éditions Ototo pour cette lecture. Un manga dont j’avais hâte de lire la suite. J’adore le personnage de Maïn et ses aventures pour essayer de créer un livre.
Ici, elle s’était mise en tête de créer son propre papyrus. Car dans son monde, les livres sont difficiles d’accès et coûtent très cher. De ce fait, elle souhaite les faire elle-même. Pourtant, avec le corps de Maïn qui tombe facilement malade et qui est très fragile, cela n’est pas une mission facile.
De plus, grâce à un collège de son père se nommant Otto, elle va avoir l’occasion d’apprendre à écrire. Ainsi, elle se retrouve à faire un premier pas dans la direction qu’elle souhaite. Écrire, lire, il ne lui manque plus que le papier.
J’ai apprécié la découverte de ce second tome. Ici, nous en apprenons plus sur certains personnages, comme les voisins ou le collège de travail du père de Maïn : Otto.
Il y a des petites histoires plutôt drôles qui agrémentent le tout. L’histoire est vraiment intéressante et j’apprécie beaucoup de suivre les aventures de Maïn, dans sa quête de livre et de lecture.
En bref, c’est un deuxième tome à la hauteur du premier. L’histoire est plaisante, les aventures de chaque personnage sont intrigantes et on apprend de plus en plus à aimer chacun d’entre eux. J’ai très hâte de voir ce que la suite nous réserve ! 😉

Una estudiante universitaria a la que le encantan los libros desde que era pequeña muere en un accidente y resucita en un mundo completamente distinto del que no sabe nada en absoluto. Ahora es Myne, la enfermiza hija de cinco años de un pobre soldado. Las personas de ese mundo apenas saben leer y los libros prácticamente son inexistentes, además de muy caros. Así que Myne decide convertirse en bibliotecaria para vivir rodeada de libros para siempre. Sin duda, esta es una historia dulce que hará las delicias de los amantes de la lectura y de los ratones de biblioteca. En este segundo tomo acompañamos a Myne en su travesía de integración a su nueva vida en Ehrenfest.
Las ilustraciones son magníficas, logran introducirte al mundo ficticio.

Aussi conquise par ce tome 2 que par le premier opus, les dessins sont toujours aussi mignons et les décors travaillés. La petite Maïn tente cette fois de créer des tablettes d'argile, elle va aussi arriver à satisfaire certaines de ses envies d'écrit en se liant d'amitié avec un des soldats, en charge des comptes de la garnison.
Les personnages sont toujours aussi attachants, l'intrigue est prenante même s'il ne se passe pas forcément grand chose, on suit les sautes d'humeur de la petite Maïn avec plaisir.
Vivement le tome 3 pour découvrir la suite de ses tentatives de fabrication de livre.

Ya se pone más interesante. Me alegro de ver más a Lutz y Otto en este volumen.
Estaba pensando que si de verdad Myne disfruta tanto de escribir, se le podía haber ocurrido (antes de pensar en hacer papiro) escribir con un palito en la tierra de la calle, o con el dedo en el polvo de casa, con un tizón, los restos de las brasas de la chimenea... Al final todo eso es parecido a la pizarra.

Myne es una niña enferma , está circunstancia la lleva a aprender a leer y gustar de la lectura

This is such fun to read, because you just watch the characters who think they are dealing with a sickly six year old, but whom we know is a not really sane visitor from our world, as she tries to bully the people around her into producing mass printing, starting with her attempts at papyrus and clay tablets. It's so crazy it's fun, especially with the great artistic details of basket making, dressmaking and the magic fruit picking.

So adorable. This part was more about daily life, the townsfolk's responsibilities, and plenty of Myne's missions to learn and make things during the winter/spring. Unexpectedly good!

Another extremely cute installment of this manga. I want to make these pancakes now! Someone said the style of this reminds them of a Studio Ghibli movie and I could totally see that.

Hello,
Encore un tome tout doux !
On découvre vraiment la personnalité débrouillarde de Mainn, une pure Serdaigle.
J'aime énormément les personnages de Lutz et Otto qui complement bien l'histoire de l'héroine.
Lu en physique en VF.

Toujours aussi choupinou de suivre cette petite heroine si dégourdie <3
Relecture du 08/09/2020 : c'est fou! avec cette relecture j'ai découvert quelques petits détails de l'histoire que j'avais zappée lors de ma 1ère lecture! :O la relecture a du bon parfois! Si j'étais à la place de Urano/Main je ne suis pas sûre que j'aurais fais beaucoup mieux XD j'admire sa ténacité à se procurer des livres. Bon sinon Lutz a capturé mon coeur <3 tout comme Gilbert Blythe soit disant en passant mais ça je le développerai prochainement XD quand le roman Anne de Green Gables paraîtra le mois prochain!
Il serait temps que je finisse de visionner l'animé! Sinon je me demande de + en + si je ne vais pas me procurer les light novels en anglais parce que je kiffe cet univers et que je ne suis pas prête de le quitter de sitôt ^^ (7 tomes en manga ça passe vite ^^).
Relecture du 14/12/20 : j'aime toujours autant cette histoire et cet univers! <3<3<3

Born into a world where books are scarce, a tiny, sickly bookworm tries to make her own by remembering the technology of ancient Earth cultures. Egyptian papyrus didn't work, maybe the clay tablets of ancient Babylon?
February 9, 2021
Myne, a woman reborn into another world in a small child's body, moves on to trying to create books by making clay tablets.
I like this story, but I don't love it yet. Myne makes lace, pancakes (out of what her friends insist is 'bird food'), and practices the alphabet.

Her resilience is heartwarming and I love how her past knowledge continues to better the world around her.

I maybe need to apologise for and/or revise my review of the prior volume, since one of my complaints therein was that Gunther is drawn a bit older-looking than I expect.
I then got the next* light novel to prepare to read next, and... Gunther looks a little old on the cover (and a bit in the interior illustrations). Oops. I guess Effa just ages well?/Did she marry a somewhat older man?
*re-reading these in order: 1st light novel, 1st manga, 2nd light novel, 2nd manga...
So, anyway, no complaints about the art this time around. I *do* have a vague complaint about the fact the dialogue balloons mysteriously lose their tails for a good number of pages, leaving it vague who is actually saying what. There's also a typo with "doesns't"... and, oh, okay—ONE complaint about the art is how the cover has Lutz taking a bite of one (pancake) while holding another one that already has a bite out of it. Finish the first one before starting another, Lutz! :)
This volume also covers some of the more interesting lore of the series, like the mysterious fey plants that provide "parue" fruits, which absolutely sound like something I want to try, even if the method for getting them sounds like a nightmare (although, I bet modern technology would be able to figure out a less terrible way to harvest them). This is also when Myne starts accidentally letting slip her otherworldly knowledge, most particularly with the hairpin she designs for Tuuli. Oh, the shenanigans THAT starts, haha...
Anyway, still recommended for fans of the series! I also appreciate that Suzuka did her own research into making the things Myne made, to better understand how to draw them! I really should've bumped up to five stars on that account, but whether from translation or not, the missing dialogue tails issue really is annoying...

Volume 2 reverses roles a little bit; where Volume 1 focused mostly on Myne bringing her modern old-life knowledge to her new world, Volume 2 sees the setting teaching *her* new things about the world, usually about the basics of survival in a place that doesn't have modern amenities. (For example, there's a chapter devoted to pig-killing day and the work that goes into preserving enough meat to ensure they'll survive the harsh winter.)
Myne's interest in books and reading - mostly a source of exaggerated humor and her single-minded goal in the first book - also becomes more intrinsic to her life in her new setting, as her interest in learning the written language of her new world and her natural skill with numbers gives her lots of opportunity to succeed in this setting, where many are illiterate. (After all, even though books barely exist in this world, and though most commoners are illiterate, reading, writing, and arithmetic are still intensely valuable skills.)
She still progresses in her goal to make books - this time gathering the materials to make clay tablets to record information on - but Volume 2 develops the story in a way that moves it away from the one-note direction of the first volume, and makes me eager to read more!

I'm actually really enjoying the story now, to the point where I wanted to read this one right away. I started watching the anime and didn't want to get too far ahead, though that's kind if inevitable since my library only has these first two volumes so far. In fact, I was devastated when I went to grab this volume only to find it wasn't on the shelf and had gone missing. Thankfully it found its way back, and as soon as it came in I started reading. I don't know why I rated the first volume so low; I guess I wasn't really sure what to expect, but I'm invested in the story now.
Spoilers
In this volume I became more invested in Myne's struggles to get stronger so she could achieve her goal of making books. She made some good attempts in this, though neither of them worked out. I thought the clay tablets were a good idea, and it's unfortunate it didn't work. I wonder what she'll try next. Maybe wood or something to do with fabric, like embroidery? I'm excited to find out, though I'll probably find out through the anime since my library only has the first two volumes at the moment.
