With the fansubbed release of chapters 26 and 27 of Clear Card-hen, Card Captor Sakura is back in my value added rankings at #73. Boku Dake ga Inai Machi was kicked out to make room. If fansubbers are going to cover volume 6 for us, there's no need to buy the volume from amazon anymore. That's a nice cost saving.
The plot is certainly starting to pick up right after the anime's ending. These were some highly entertaining chapters.
Looking over my 'fictional character hall of fame,' inherent in 'In Another World With 100 Waifus,' it turns out about 1/3 of them are men, 2/3 women. Given all the beauty advantages inherent in 2d girls, that's quite an impressive showing for the male sex. I guess male lives really do matter.
I've finished re-reading and proofreading 'The Greatest Vision.' The book oscillates between good scenes and bad scenes, sometimes even within the same chapter. The only character I can really get behind is Lucinda -- and strangely enough the businessmen on Earth. In addition the story is rather short. Because of this, I'm rating it below even 'The Emperor's Son.'
So currently the quality comparison looks like this: Wyrd Saga > 100 Waifus > Sellsword > The Emperor's Son > The Greatest Vision > Illyria > Wind, with 'The Twin Spires' yet to be read and ranked.
I guess it only stands to reason that my later books are better than my earlier ones. They're more in accord with who I am and what I think now, so they resonate more strongly with me than the earlier books do. The Greatest Vision was just written too long ago.
Well at least people can now try out my Martian sci fi story with proper grammar and spelling. Rereading my older stories hasn't been in vain.
Just one book left to assess.
