A fairly light input week mostly due to real life commitments. I read the latest volume of 一ノ瀬家の大罪, played a bit more ドラクエXオフ, and watched more TotK let's plays. Spoilers for 一ノ瀬家の大罪.


一ノ瀬家の大罪 Vol 2 🔁
Despite saying I probably wouldn't continue this, I already had volume 2 in my reader and was curious enough to see how it progressed. As it turns out it's not exactly as by the numbers as I expected. While the core twist (spoiler: they've all been through this several times) is sort of easy to guess, the way it's handled is pretty fun and I am sort of looking forward to Vol 3 to continue the story. Still sort of hoping it doesn't go on forever though ;;

ドラゴンクエストXオフライン版 🤡
I mostly spent time doing the 職人 sidequests. I completed all of the 旅芸人 questline which had a nice line where the minor villain of the quest realised that his mother was actually helped by 旅芸人 in the end, just not how he expected. Lots of ボケs to victory.

キヨ Stuff 😆
Just a bunch more キヨ as well. Mostly BotW and TotK. Watching him get excited about meeting old characters from the BotW run is really fun. I also think the more you watch the more you appreciate his comedic timing.

Life Stuff
So the big two things last week were the successful launch of my big article (very grateful for the responses to that) and the wedding I attended. Both things kept me pretty busy during the week.
Since the article I've also been reached out to by a few interesting people so I have a followup planned. It's more of a case study of how one particular fan translation group is working on their own spin on a faithful translation of the original Famicom game. Should be interesting.
