Misuzu hole filled:

During my re-read of '100 Waifus,' I felt Christopher's explanation of his love for Misuzu was lacking, so I expanded upon it.  The new paragraph reads as such:

"Misuzu was really cute, how she preserved her childish wonder and friendliness towards strangers even though no one would ever get close to her. Plus she has the entire world beat when it comes to courage, willpower or determination. Despite her frailty, when I was assaulted she instantly, without hesitation, leapt to my physical defense. No matter how painful it got, no matter how weak she got, she would pretend to be strong and exude cheerfulness for those around her. And then I felt bad for her and wanted to help her, and of course her beauty." I reported.


By rewatching Air last year I was able to recall why I loved her more than before, and now that experience has paid off.  Misuzu finally gets her due alongside the other 99.

I also edited 'servile' into 'servant' and a 'could' into a 'would.'  Not even full word changes, just a letter changed out here and there.  But every little bit helps.

And I edited the section calling for a new Akatsuki no Yona anime out -- since Akatsuki no Yona is actually getting a new anime.  It's been replaced with a call for a new Ryuuou no Oshigoto! and Nanoha Vivid anime instead.  I'm fairly confident those will never happen in this world, and therefore will definitely be needed in Eden.

Honestly I could have left the Akatsuki no Yona section untouched, since it's extremely unlikely the anime will adapt the manga in full.  But I don't want to have to edit this book again, so if there's even a tiny probability that could happen it's better to replace the text now.

This 51st edition became necessary because of a single time Sophie's last name was left out in a place it should have been included.  But in for a penny, in for a pound, so here we are.  Maybe I'll have to make a few more edits before all is said and done, but I'm more than happy to do so.  I want this book to be perfect, good enough that God could have written it without shame.  If that takes yet another edition after I thought I was done, then so be it.
