It‘s war. The tone gradually becoming more somber and serious. Especially after the killing of a sacred dear (iykyk 😢)

What just happened? Now on Lycomedes’ island and so much is happening. Cross-dressing gods, love-triangles, bi-sexual action. This got me hooked now fr.

Tikbalang mentioned! A random filipino mythology reference 🐴

„What‘s the only thing standing between an innocent child and a happy, fulfilling life? Answer: You, the answer is you.“ - another jaw-dropping achievement notification that absolutely made me snort like a pig.

Had plenty of time during my long-ass bus trip to the city and back 💀 The achievement notifications never seize to make me giggle a bit, love them. Still feels a bit too exposition-heavy for me. I‘m still very much entertained by the main cast‘s chaotic dynamic so I‘m excited for more 🙌🏻

Hilarious already. Can‘t wait fir more!

Finished the first story “White Nights”. It’s about two lonely people finding solace in each other’s comfort but it still wasn’t meant to be. The end absolutely wrecked me in how real and relatable it is 🥲 Wishing them both the best but our MC didn’t deserve that at all. The way the story progressed got me on a chokehold ngl

Rereading the first Haruhi novel in preparation for Tanabata. The first pages were a bit of a drag due to Kyon’s slightly pretentious monologues but once Haruhi appears the story became more interesting. Haruhi is a b**ch and a half but she’s hella entertaining, especially in her dynamic with Kyon constantly bickering with each other.

Another scene happened, but now after a misunderstanding. I should get used to it by now.
But it’s cute to see how they accept each other’s flaws and opinions. They’re basically a couple now if she wasn’t betrothed to Lord Wednesday or smth.

Another chapter 15 happened but now as a river bathing scene. Felt more uncomfy than the above-mentioned situation 👀
Oskar is starting to have doubts about their relationship though since, in his opinion, he‘s just one puny half-orc from some southern village who can‘t provide the best conditions for Guinevere. How‘s it gonna work out now that Guinevere is head-over-heels for him? The tragedy omggg.

Nothing much happened yet. Santiago just reached the African continent on his way to Egypt. The king of Salem dropped some tokens of wisdom about finding your own path in life. Its a light read and I’m excited for how the story unfolds.

Me in the train reading chapter 15: 👁️👄👁️💧
The tension was there all along but I was still unprepared for that much sauce 🫣

First time reading romantasy knowing its a romantasy and I kind of dig it. Oskar and Guinevere are giving off Shrek and Fiona vibes minus all the farting and burping (might still happen idk). The way the strong and stoic Oskar is slowly opening up to our sweet and dainty Guinevere is so sweet to witness. Guinevere is also a little h*rndog by how often she describes Oskar‘s chiseled features. She down bad fr haha

Currently lots of fighting with monsters. Descriptions are not necessarily evocative or interesting and I end up just rushing through those pages. Wishing it was like the previous book cuz I feel like I don‘t really know the characters on a deeper level. Hope it gets better.

Our protagonist is a bit short-sighted with his wishes since he could just wish something like guns or corruption away but I think this is more of a character-driven introspective journey of his last days on earth. The chapter on movies kind of irks me though since he basically took away the joy or “sonzai-igi” of his friend Tsutaya who‘s life revolves around movies. Not yet finished with the chapter though

Thought it would literally be a hypothetical analysis of a world devoid of kitties but I was mistaken. Found a story about a dude who deals with the message of his terminal illness by making a deal with a devil to prolong his life. The dude takes the message semi-nonchalantly but I think thats totally relatable lol. The devil is fun and his ex-girlfriend is fine, too. But cabbage… nobody harms cabbage!

Justice for Hatsumi. Nagasawa is an asshole, but Hatsumi is way too clingy. I wonder what made her be that type if person, chasing after someone who will never reciprocate her needs. Midori continurs to be a pick-me, but I think thats her way to convince a man to stay with her being all sexy and appealing like that. Her and Torus relationship feels so off.
