Goals & Plans 2025 + Review 2024

2024 goals

2024 goals part 1, and part 2

My goals were super vague, so it’s hard to make much evaluation of them

  • Read all SAO novels: 8/36 finished :sweat_smile:
  • Comfortably read L30-33 books & visual novels: made progress, but definitely not there
  • Seriously improve my reading speed: reading speed has noticeably improved
  • Transition to only using monolingual dictionary(?): I go back and forth, depending on complexity
  • Improve my writing/conversation ability: there’s certainly been some improvement, まだまだけど
  • Fate/Stay Night: I’m torturing myself with this again, and it’s doable (tho frustrating) in small stretches each day
  • Read as many 百合姫 monthly series as possible: I read everything in the magazine now, except if I don’t like it
  • Same for 少年エース: hasn’t really happened
  • Read more with audiobooks: Finished a few audiobooks this year - some with text, and some without

2025

I’m gonna try setting some more concrete goals this time around:

  1. Read all of the physical books I own. Currently: 257/584, counting games, Blu-rays, etc
    a. This is probably unachievable, since I buy more every month. So get the ratio up to 60% at least
  2. Finish 42 light novels (my highest in any year was 21)

ラノベ:

If I actually manage those, that will just about cover my 42 LNs goal

漫画:

読みたいノベル:

アニメ:

  • Watch more L34+ anime (I did 44 eps this year)
  • Watch and understand Fate/Zero | L39

日常:

  • Read more reviews and info pgs in JP instead of English

Writing/Speaking:

  • Translate more book reviews into Japanese
  • Be able to speak along (at speed) to anything I’m reading/watching
