Actually the whole series is available at nyaa.si, but volume 20 is red hot off the presses so more important than the others. I'm sure it's a great book, but I'm busy reading The Wheel of Time for now so it will have to wait. There's plenty of downtime under the covid-19 siege so I'm sure I'll get around to it soon enough.
Meanwhile, I continued editing my own book, '100 Waifus.' Like usual it's a simple name change. I took out Byakuya from Bloody Roar because it was a confusing overlap with the more famous Byakuya from Bleach. Also because he lacked much character, being from a fighting game that cared more about mechanics than plot, so other than looking cool and being strong he wasn't much of a role model. In his place I slotted in the much better child name, Naoya, which is unique (a big plus), and the sole representative of a series that as of yet lacked any representation in the book, despite being in my manga hall of fame, Kanojo mo Kanojo. Now every series in my manga, visual novel and anime hall of fame is represented in my fictional character hall of fame once more.
Kanojo mo Kanojo is so new to my rankings that I had already finished re-reading and re-editing the book 23 times before I even learned of its existence. But now it can be properly honored in time for my 24th re-read. Which will have to come after SAO volume 20 and The Wheel of Time.
Hopefully I can get rid of some more repeat names in favor of more unique names in the future as well. So long as the book can be improved, I may as well do so.
