The Alma - Hikaru dynamic of "Let's do it!" but not having legs to go doing heroic things but Hikaru being told "You don't need to do anything" and having low self esteem is really funny.

Aki is really cute in this frame.

The interesting part is that some people are able to see.

Color - none (I hate not being able to visualise color as I hate doing 3d texturing work in blender and I would like to be able to enjoy it)
Gender - ambigious
Look - lack of info
Ball - unpleasant to touch, got pushed from the top, palm sized, it made a sound, the scene looped before the ball fell off the table, in the next iterations the ball was made of foam, and lacked sound, the camera spunn around the table.
Table - four legs, square, standard height.

This will be a painful watch due to a caricature of my religion judged by modern eye, and head filled with :::spoiler nationalist propaganda ::: from the day I was born.

As polish/english wikipedia claims Copernicus didn't really have been made heretic for his work directly. There was an Ordinary that had been his rival and accused him of heresy. Although he was ostracized by some people. His work wasn't presented as a theory but as hypothesis and didn't made it to the banned books list until 17th & 18th century, when Kepler added some cool ellipses and made it an actual theory on how the world works.

Merchant crab WN - 55 chapters - A NPC gets isekai powers in fantasy world, and MC becomes a merchant. Technically not an isekai. There is a lot of internet memes in this one so it's opposite of timeless. I enjoyed it quite a bit as I don't really get tired of "old" memes. The mystery is interesting even if it develops quite slow.

The Legendary Witch Is Reborn as an Oppressed Princess - vol 1 - The desriptions of the scenes are a bit pretensious but the plot is aright. The worldbuilding and character backstories are a contradicting each other. The character dynamics just don't mix well enough. The dehumanization of ML (male lead) just doesn't sit well with me.

The animation was superb

I really like the timing of different scenes and actions. The story is standard but so far I am enjoying it.

Thanks. I shouldn't have been posting in the middle of the night.

If you watch it again you can see that Ruby has light star in certain shots and dark stars in other. Great attention to detail.

The mood whiplash from music video just like an internet algorithm serving up whatever; was something else.

::: spoiler my theory crafting

So Akane has wrong information about that body wasn't in fact Aqua's father / murderer. A witch(?) (She totally looks like a witch) has manipulated Rudy to begin searching for her own revenge on the manipulator . Akane gaslights Ruby that Aqua wasn't searching for his revenge the whole time.

The viewers know who is the manipulator. Why does some random girl has star eyes?! Why the Murderer has star eyes? WHAT DO THEY MEAN?!!1111!!!???!?!

Why Aqua lost his eye!?

Ughhhh... That face...

Can't wait for the next season. I have enjoyed my time watching growth of Aqua, Akane and Kana on stage.

Edit: MV from the episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7E-tgmFuzw

This really slaps. Great fights. Superb Animation. Feels like deep worldbuilding. Good soundtrack. Great story boarding with match cuts.

Sadly I am not really the target audience but I will keep an eye on it. This could be a hidden gem for the fall season.

Also this:

top or bottom? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

1 flux capacitor
2 positrons
1 hug
1 thingamajig
3 liters of blinker fluid
one simple manual excavator
1 mol of oxygen
1 µg of unobtanium
1 grimoir for casting spells 
1 ring to rule them all
50 melons for grade school math problem

Two separate entities with same thought process with some sort of multi-threading and there is one consciousness / free will.

Edit: Not a lot of is explained as MC is still new to the whole thing. If you are curious maybe read it. Not a lot plot but still something. I could also have wrong interpretation of the whole thing.

The emotions and fantasy skills are split but thinking and consciousness are connected. There are couple of interesting choices by the author about the mechanic like MC can't wake up themselfs. I fear that the author will disregard some things that were previously established.

::: spoiler spoiler for chapter 30 There is a plot hook for romance between themselfs but I guess it will be more of a comedic gag. :::

Not much LN this week but a couple of Web Novels and Manga

Waking Up As a Spaceship!? What’s a Ship Girl Supposed To Do Now?! - Really nice Space Opera Isekai about guy turned into AI. The chemistry between characters is quite good. Writing is decent. The international intrigue is there. World building is just a mix of different games like Elite Dangerous, EVE online etc. with claque of USA, UK and Japan as Space Empires. Sadly the author probably died during 2020 pandemic and there wasn't any more updates after that.

Reincarnated into Two Bodies - Fantasy Isekai but narrator has two bodies. The potential is there for some great shenanigans but for now I don't feel like it has gotten into its peak. I feel like there is a prologue and half of an story arc. (Maybe it will fill my bookworm hole with weekly chapters)

This frame is brilliant. The reflection in the glass is of Ruby and Aqua.

So you would need metal singing lessons instead of traditional ones.

I reccomend hopping on !chat@literature.cafe

Finally finished.

It really explores an Idea that all the people in the world are living lives just like ours. With successes, tragedies and all in between. Can't wait for season 2.
