Despite assigning all these songs, I still have 215 unassigned 4-star songs that deserve to be heard as often as my 5-star songs.  I used every character I could think of, including the ones from my own books that I had previously taken out.  None of these characters are undeserving.  A lot of them are the protagonists or antagonists of their stories.  The big question for most of these names is 'why weren't they included already?'

But there aren't 215 more names like that floating around unused.  Ideally, over half my 4-star music would be in my wonderful playlist, because over half my 4-star music is essentially as good as my 5-star music.  But right now I'm at 371/1100, or one third.  I suppose I can slowly consume more art and discover more wonderful characters and chip away at these missing 215 songs in the years to come.  But that feels far too slow.  I want to listen to this music now.  >.<.

There was no new event in Heaven Burns Red this week, but plenty of loot was handed out.  I got base Minori to level 3 limit break, diva Ruka to level 3 limit break, one piece Bon Ivar to limit break 2.5, and shrine maiden Risa to level 1 limit break.  I also maxed out Mari and Misato's mementos, and almost maxed out Adelheid's.  The goal is for all Memorias with eternal daphnes, they should also have max mementos, to best make use of the fact that they have eternal daphnes.

I finished my reread of The Twin Spires.  There are some boring digressions where people waste time talking about philosophy, but overall the book is solid.  Especially once the elves are introduced.  I wrote this book a long, long time ago, so it's satisfying to see how well it still holds up.

I'm very much enjoying the endless basketball of March Madness.
