Only 2 more volumes and you'll be FUNA-less again. Any doomsday preparation done already?

There were a couple of series I was thinking of picking up but I have forgot them since.


DEFCON 5 -

I find another series and life goes on


DEFCON 4 -

Revisit older series I gave up on:

Cooking with wild game

Reincarnated as a Sword

Spirit Chronacles

Apothecary Diaries


DEFCON 3 -

Watch some Anime to find new series / Read some Manga


DEFCON 4 -

Reread a series I enjoyed:

Death March

Making Magic

Continue rereading Bookworm Part 4


DEFCON 5 -

Read the reserved volumes:

Bookworm side stories

Silent Witch - Barrier Mage

(Not sure why they are reserved, I didn’t read them the first time around and never bothered to read them since. But now I am scared to start and truly finish them)

Defcon 5: The Barrier Mage volume was good. I liked it.

The Bookworm side stories are okay, and the Hannelore new series is really good, but the wait between volumes is killing me.

Defcon 2: I love Cooking With Wild Game. It's entirely character driven. If you don't like the characters after the first volume you will have a bad time. Vice versa, if you like them you'll have blast.

That’s the only side story I have read. I still can’t believe she did a Myne and caused herself more headaches.

Cooking With Wild Game. It's entirely character driven. If you don't like the characters after the first volume you will have a bad time.

I didn’t finish the volume, I was looking for a series after finishing one and think it was just the wrong story at the wrong time. So it’s in my revisit list. I didn’t have anything against the characters but they just weren’t clicking with me.

In fact it might have been Death March I had finished, so trying to get to know new characters after travelling with the gang was too much.

Yeah, I can see that happen.
