Putting a suggested time table, note that my number 1 priority was finishing “whole parts” rather then adjusting perfectly to page numbers, so some are lower and some are higher but I tried making it as close to 15 as much as I thought was possible…
In places with no “parts” I added a sentence from the page I’m pointing to so that you can try finding the page in your version of the book and mark it or something.
Hopefully it’ll fit everyone here!

chapter 9 part 5
(last dash to the end so I’m allowing myself to put extra pages since at this point you either finish or take more time to reach the end in general)
I didn’t realize, but the first story is by the author of 裏世界ピクニック and the last by the author of 天冥の標, both series I love. I didn’t really check the rest (yet), but that’s promising!
okay so I had an opportunity to go around looking at the book and I have a kind of plan but before that a last poll (I promise it’s the last for now ) - I will even make it fun so that you won’t suffer too much!
the reason being that I want to make sure of the level and speed of some kind of majority of participants in reading this book and to adjust a schedule accordingly
Note! that if we see during the reading that everyone is doing really well and want a faster pace then we can adjust accordingly, meaning the starting speed is kind of like the initial minimum and we can adjust accordingly from there or you can read ahead etc (a.k.a I personally will have an easier time to manage things if we start slow and adjust from there if needed)
For that reason there is no Horse (25~30) option below.
Is it not possible to vote for both options? My reading pace is basically 10~15 pages… otherwise I’ll just vote for the slower speed to represent that I’d like something a bit slower then the majority I guess
in this case I would recommend voting the lower option yea, thank you for writing it in a comment as well (didn’t put this into words so this is a great opportunity)!
in general if there is a number of people who will want the slow pace (ofc only if the majority are the sheep, if majority are snail it’s irrelevant lol)then I plan to either do in the middle of 10~15 or try to keep it at around the 15 pages in average
I’d also like to start slower! I haven’t tried reading non manga text since Dracula. I think this one wouldn’t be as bad because it’s possible to jump in if at the current story if you fall behind.
I still put snail though because I’m currently reading 8 books. Although two of those books are neither fiction nor manga, but I usually only read a page per day on average…
I was looking for something new to read, and this looks really up my alley!
This is a collection of short stories, yes? Does anyone know how many pages each of the stories are? Amazon preview didn’t tell me
I’d rather not spend 3 week per story if I could choose (regarding the reading speed).
so the cmoa numbers are probably pretty different then the bookwalker ones
should anyone get the book from bookwalker or rakuten/etc could you send me a page count so I can compare?
I’m not sure if I will join or not yet but I have the book if I do join. My reader breaks down the chapters and the character count for them in case anyone is interested, if you’re more familiar with VNs then it might give you an idea of the length for each story. Although it doesn’t pick up on the manga text so the count for that chapter is incorrect.
) - I will even make it fun so that you won’t suffer too much!
Especially the last few. Honestly didn’t expect their length to be so varied. Thanks for typing that out!
