    Just about finished with Fire Girl volume 1. It's pretty interesting. I wish they named the new world something other than Nutella though. It's distracting. XD
    Otherwise, it's a pretty cool story so far about exploration of a new world with a female somewhat energetic protagonist.

        I find myself reading "my wife is a beautiful CEO".

        The story is actually pretty good, however the pure amount of repetition and "tell don't show" is sometimes overwhelming. It's from china though I think so probably not got a hope of j-novel grabbing it.

        That said, the MC does seem a little overpowered out of the gate... then again, it's about the MC supposed retirement years...

          Just finished binge reading through volume 2 (1-B) of Fire Girl. This is really turning out to be quite the interesting series with a great sense of adventure and wonder.

            @aruseus493 hmm you got me interested... Is it fan translated, or can I buy the LN ? Either would do but I always have low hopes for fan translation cuz I know they tend to stop translation for months sometimes even years :( .

              Fan-translated by Nano Desu. 3 volumes (1-A, 1-B, 2-A) fan-translated at the moment with one part per month updated. Would be best if J-NC would pick this up since they'd be faster.

                @aruseus493 I actually like Nano Desu, since they did grimgar as well. Would be awesome if J-NC picked it up
                as well.

                          i wrapped up So I'm a Spider, So What? back on Friday, and I'm glad to say it's more than just a gimmicky title. Reminded me of Hatchet by Gary Paulsen.

                            @tremorc so finished Goblin Slayer volume 1 and am about to buy 2 now. The story was really awesome. Is the spider LN a fan translation or actual licensed translation? Cuz I'm up for anything new.

                                I'm reading Juni Taisen: Zodiac War.

                                Spoilers up to Sheep's Chapter (it's like ch 4 or 5?).

                                spoiler

                                I don't know. Just thought at least one character would try that technique.

                                And (previous chapter spoiler, the one focusing on Monkey and Rat).

                                  I’m also interested in the Spider LN. So it’s kinda like a survival isekai/tensei? Is it good?

                                    Justus reviewed it. He expected it to be stupid, so it surpassed his expectations.

                                    I try to stay in the dark as much as I can, so I just read the ending impressions in the final 2 or 3 minutes.

                                      @legitpancake I liked it a lot. The protagonist's narration is fun, and I liked seeing what would happen to her next, or how she'd solve problems. There are chapters that have other narrators, and I didn't like those as much. It isn't that they are bad, but rather that the Spider's chapters make the others seem dull. They do build the world and foreshadow events (both in this and future volumes), so they aren't a waste.

                                        @tremorc there's something I just need to know before buying it... How did they localize her trademark "Nai wa~"??

                                          Juni Taisen finished. It was ok. Fights were definitely a bit quicker / more lackluster than I guess you'd maybe expect, and heroes made poor decisions so frequently. I guess the war wouldn't end if battles dragged out though.

                                          The ending left me feeling a bit empty, but I guess that's probably another intended effect. I feel like this would make for an exciting Visual Novel

                                          spoiler

                                          Now what to read? Realist Hero, Demon King Daimao, or not spend my time before the prepubs expire well by starting Empty Box or So I'm a Spider?

                                          Edit: Magical Girl Raising Project time? I think so!
