(re: the first art for this week’s reading) そうか。。。 The director is the girl from the cover. I don’t know why I didn’t figure that out. 🤣 Her name is 宝野ヤカタ. Very punny. 😂 (next page) Hmm… The director smiles at our MC and she somehow can’t calm down. And her name is Yuri. Hmm… 🤔 (and then…) She really did forget to return the DVD. 🤣 And I’m done for the week! This is so far shaping up to be a fun read. ---

I’m waiting to see what the catch is when you over-rely on an item or turn it in late or something. ---

> [@soggyboy](#): > > although our museum director seems a bit more sinister than Beniko Interesting, I would have said the opposite, although I did only read the first book, so maybe she’s less ominous when you get to know her better 😂 ---

Plus Mei says that Yakata wouldn’t want her to give the warning about over-relying on the item. I feel like that means she wants people to fail… 🤔 > > VS. Beniko, who is pretty neutral on the outcome of her sweets. She specifies in a later book that whether a customer has a good or bad result with the sweet is up to them, so it’s not like she’s rooting for them to fail, she just basically provides them with a choice and then observes the outcome. ---

Yeah that’s fair now that you point that out. I now agree 😂 ---

> [@soggyboy](#): > > The reason I thought the museum director was sinister is because our main character notes that she’s shaking and feels scared by her smile, It’s because the narrator has a crush 🤣 (I’m joking…) I actually thought the book did a good job of establishing the director and the museum as a little creepy and the exchange between Yuri and Yakata was suitably tense. Goosebumps level of creepy, but I was into that when I was a kid! I also can’t wait until we see the monkey’s paw curl. 🙈 ---

I can’t await the day, when I will also be able to understand all These little Details and feel what the Protagonist feels, like when I’m reading in German or english. ---
