Stayed up till 3am to finish 灰と幻想のグリムガル level.9 ここにいる今、遥か遠くへ | L31 - which was great, but left me exhausted. So btwn that & work, haven’t done any reading, but have done jpdb

jpdb

Deleted all the premade jpdb decks for now. Will re-add in the near future (episode by episode). Went through the Grimgar 9 deck. I’ve gotten it down to 376 new items (324 vocab 52 kanji). Sorted by deck frequency for most, though once I got around 400, the words started being kinda meh, so I switched to global. Normally I’d do chronologically, but since I’ve already read it, there was no point. There’s been a number of “oh I was kinda off on the meaning/reading” words, as well as some word that Kindle JMDICT didn’t pick up

Also did some of vol 10, but didn’t get to any of the new words, cuz I had like 145 Due words.

SAOIF

Played some SAOIF. Even being a bit sleepy, I could read most of it fine. A few words I either didn’t remember the reading, or had to figure out from context, but it felt very at my reading level. Same for the skill descriptions. I think it may actually be a bit simpler than FGO, so maybe I’ll play a bit here and there - no loss if not

Other

Hoping to get some vol 10 reading in tonight, even if it ends up being just the prologue. Anime is probably a more practical option, but I’m not really in the mood. Still have to catch up with book clubs. At the very least まちカドまぞく book club (home thread)

Update: I read a bit of the prologue, and then skimmed through the rest in English, bc it was basically a side story (with some distant background plot relevance), involving none of the characters - and even skimming in English it went on way too long.

These have both been helpful - thx!!
