Index GT Volume 2 mostly translated:

If you start reading now, it'll probably be fully translated by the time you need it.  This novel and Jest Right by Piers Anthony are the only two July releases so savor them.  They'll have to last us all the way to August.

Railgun resumes on the 24th, at which point the summer anime season will finally be in full swing.  It feels like a long time since there's been 9 good concurrent shows to watch.

I remember the good old days of 2020, when Summer Pockets, Senren * Banka, FF7 Remake and Majikoi A-3 were coming out. . . It all feels so long ago now.  Before the dark times.  Before Covid-19.

I'm making steady progress on Imouto Paradise 3.  I'm on my final individual route (the least attractive one, as usual in visual novel progression).  Then there's the Harem route and it'll be complete.  I bought this game at a pretty hefty price and I've already put it in my 'completed visual novel rankings' so it would be nice to actually make that true.

Imouto Paradise 3 isn't bad, but it adds nothing new that the previous two games didn't already do better.  The best comparison would be something like Dynasty Warriors 4.  No one is sure why the game exists since 3 is more fun anyway, but taken in isolation it is fun so it's hard to complain.

Death March's web novel is continuing with a bunch of side stories.  Together they might end up a full volume in length, so it might be wise to dive back into reading it as well.
