Ah, yes! You have. Yay! Ok. Ignore my earlier message :D

Did you start watching these because of the new Mothra translation? www.upress.umn.edu/978151792001... And, really, just play the song over and over again: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9lmZ... Become one with the ear worm.

You're right. They're working. Whoops! Thank you!

Thank you! Will retry the others tonight!

@singfisher.com Daily Akari #148 also missing :(

@singfisher.com Hrms, also looks like Daily Akari #120 has been deleted :(

@singfisher.com Hello! Daily Akari #86 seems to be broken?

So far, the answer is "from issue #12 on are linked in #announcements and #play-by-post on the Puzzmo Discord", and I've got issue 9 in my email archives still, but 1 through 8, 10, and 11 are still missing. SpelluNnkKkk!

@puzzmo.com Is there an archive of Play by Play anywhere? I want to read through your past issues.

Nope, they've definitely broken a lot of things, starting yesterday.

Dialogues of East Asia, a new apazine, has released its second issue! Inside, you’ll continue the journey through Chinese otome Mr Love, Queen’s Choice and reflect on the Unborn of Bankei Yōtaku. #China #Japan #Korea #EastAsia dialoguesofeastasia.com/2025/09/05/i...

I use it to know when my computer is hard frozen vs. just the current app being slow. I never care otherwise.

/me sputters. What treasonous nonsense is this?! ;)

/cc @readjapaneseliterature.com ↑ (I'll be trying to join #WomenInTranslationMonth too, and I'm cruising into chapter 3 of today's read, but I might be a bit delayed with your daily reads/schedule. Thank you for making the list!)

Shoen Nakajima (1861-1901; aka Kishida Toshiko), was an orator who spent eight days in jail for a “political speech without a permit” on the subject of women’s rights. She was also a teacher, poet, + writer before her untimely death from tuberculosis.

Dialogues of East Asia, a new apazine, has released its first issue! Discover a new anime podcast, dip into films of Abe no Seimei, gush over Japanese children’s books, and ponder along with a Chinese otome’s preservation. #China #Japan #Korea #EastAsia dialoguesofeastasia.com/2025/08/01/i...

Remember #JanuaryinJapan? We'll tune in on Friday, because RJL will have #WomeninTranslation month stories for you to read along with, too!

@tricyclemag.bsky.social Hi! As a subscriber, are PDF versions of the issue available? I don't want to read articles from a webpage.

Welp, @readjapaneseliterature.com, the thing I've been working on with others is public now, and I'd love to have you (and any of our onlookers) take a peek, maybe become a reader, maybe a contributor, or maybe just nod curiously: Dialogues of East Asia, a monthly APAzine: dialoguesofeastasia.com

First slide in today's first class mentions @readjapaneseliterature.com's "Japanese Comfort Reads" article :D

Thanks! Will correct my notes. (Also: sent Ash an email with a longer version of potential errata, turn summaries, etc.). Current ETA is likely starting the group game next week, one journal entry per week for 10 weeks. Will let you know how it goes!

@crossedpaths.co.uk It seems page references in the PDF might be wrong too... on p.24, it talks about DEPTHS being on p.24 (when it's on p.26). Similarly, Basic Rules on 8 says "ITEM reward (pg.26)" but I'm thinking it should be pg.28? Also, same page, Combat is p.30, not 29. Etc.

@crossedpaths.co.uk Hello! In Brambletrek Core Rulebook, p.8, what does "Beating an opponent on the Red table" mean? I see no other mention of "Red table" (or, for that matter, "red"). Does it mean a Hearts event card? Thank you! (/me is planning a Discord-based group game.)

Annotations are MY FAVORITE :D

(And, if iyashikei is anything of interest, starting April 7th is Signum's SPACE module on "Media as Medicine: Iyashikei (癒し系) in Anime and Manga". blackberry.signumuniversity.org/space/module...

Oh! @readjapaneselit.bsky.social, you might be interested in a forthcoming (candidate) book club in Signum's SPACE for June: "The Japanese Heartwarming Bookclub" of Michiko Aoyama’s iyashikei What you Are Looking for Is in the Library:

Follow up when you can, aye! Ordering :)

Yeah, perhaps, or… ergodic. Notable for being difficult. Re-saw an article yesterday about a book club that took 28 years to finish Finnegan’s Wake and got to wondering what East Asian book might require the same duration (excepting religious/enlightenment texts).

@readjapaneselit.bsky.social Question for ya! Looking for Japanese (or East Asian) equivalents to Finnegan's Wake or Infinite Jest that also happen to be translated into English. The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle, maybe? What else?

@robinbougie.bsky.social Heya, Bougie! What's the haps?
