I've stalled listening and think I'll put this one on the back burner officially. I'm still planning on finishing it, just not right now.

Been going through a reading slump! Hopefully, I'll be back to reading and reviewing soon.

I'm almost halfway through and pretty much nothing has happened yet, haha. BookTok raves about this one all the time, and I'm starting to worry they were lying to me!

Jack Flash and the Rainbow Egg (Part 1)
By Yuu Godai

I'd already read this story in its manga form--Jack Flash and thr Fairie Case Files-- and loved it! This went a tiny bit past where the first volume of the manga ended. I really enjoyed it in both formats!

The Sun and the Dead Alchemist
By Kiyomune Miwa

I also really liked this one! It was still somewhat sad, but I felt like the sadness had purpose, if that makes sense. The writing was pretty good, too!

The Man who Hungered for Trees
By Jun'ichi Fujisaku

I understood next to nothing about this one 😂

Defender and Ash
By Sakura Satou

I quite enjoyed this one. It had sad overtones, but an overall feeling of hope and perseverance.

Rainbow Day, Feast Day
By Hikaru Sakurai

This has been the best short story so far, both in story contents and writing style. I dont know if it's because it deals with the main characters of the series or not. It had a very good flow though, and a satisfying ending.

Pyrite Knight
By Kairi Aotsuki

I found the writing for this story to be somewhat simple, but nice. The story was pretty easy to figure out, though the main character couldn't seem to get it until it was too late.

The Vampire's Lover
By Makoto Sanda

This short story was written into the anime, so I was somewhat familiar with it. It's a sad story as well, though it has more hope in it than the first. So far, I'm finding myself wishing there was more of an ending to these short stories, haha. I'm still enjoying the wider look at the world, though.

Frozen Flowers
By Kore Yamazaki

This was kind of a depressing story. It ended well, but the societal issues with the centaurs was heartbreaking. It reminded me of past times, when people with birth defects were killed or seen as children touched by the devil. I'm glad Aunt Marie has her nephew to love, even if he doesn't come that often. I'm glad he realized he loves her as well.

I'm loving the artwork in this!

I'm moving this back to my Want To Read Shelf because it's just not vibing with me right now. Not bad, just not right for my mood at the moment!

I had a bit of a slow start, but it has been good so far! The writing is a bit different from what I've been reading, but im adjusting easily. I love the snarkiness of the characters!

I loved Sailor Moon as a child, but never actually watched the whole 90s TV series or read any of the manga. Now that I'm an adult, with adult money (lol) I've decided to experience the story from start to finish. I've been watching the new show, Sailor Moon Crystal, that goes along with this edition of the manga. It's a bit silly, but I still love it and giggling along with it!

I almost DNFed this because I wasn't really feeling drawn in. I'm glad I stuck to my rule about reading at least the first 100 pages, though! Somewhere in the 90s I got caught in wanting to know more. I'm dragging a little again now, but it's still got me wanting to know what happens, so I will continue.
