Bunpro Book club (Beginner)

I’ll be late in joining due to going on holiday, but I would like to join the next club as well.

I would like to renominate the light novel for くまクマ熊ベア that Marifly suggested ages ago. I think it’d be a nice change from the two manga we’ve done so far. :slight_smile:

Are we no longer doing book clubs? A new book was never voted on for the advanced group, the current book for the intermediate group was never added to the decks, and we have not done a new vote for the beginners group.

I think it’s because interest waned. We were all in when the book clubs started in the spring, but everything just died as the year progressed. :frowning_face:

Regarding the advanced one, I’ve been meaning to post in that thread however previously only a few of us were participating and I personally have been busy with other things study-wise currently. If we get a few people who will definitely participate then I’ll join in though!

Hopefully after next month I’ll have more time and can pop into the beginner and intermediate threads to help people out again as I was trying to do before. I think we definitely need one or two more advanced people dropping by those threads regularly with observations and pointers in order to get the most out of them.

We’re still doing groups! We have just been slammed with projects that need to get done by the end of the year. Will add a new vote tonight!

Hi Asher, I see that くま クマ 熊 ベアー is still in the poll as a manga. What I nominated was the light novel, not the manga. I have no idea if the manga is suitable for beginners or not.

The same thing happened the last time we voted. You said:

Is it possible to change the poll to the light novel? Or just remove it? Or should we do a second vote if it wins, like you suggested last time?

I voted! I read a little of 君の名は and while I can understand a fair amount,
with no hiragana, it was hurting my head looking up so many words.

I’m crawling back to beginner :flushed:

I voted for よつばと volume 2, I had a lot of fun with the first one and have been waiting to get a chance to read more.

(not that the other choices sound bad either, but right now my motivation to continue with one series is apparently a little higher than to start yet another new thing)

Unfortunately I cannot edit active polls, but I have added a note at the beginning of the poll to state that it is a light novel, not the manga. I will also change the amazon link.

Thank you!

How long will the poll remain open for? I’ve dug out my copy of よつばと with the assumption that it’s the likly winner.

Is there a possibility of having more than one going at a time? If people use よつばと2 then that leaves out the people that didn’t read the first book.

This comment is posted under the poll:

So I guess the voting is over, even though the poll itself is still open…

Thanks, I missed that.

Thread for よつばと vol 2 is up! Feel free to start discussing the book there for those that are participating!

It is possible that we may do that in the future when the number of participants get a bit higher, but we probably will not do it this time due to the overwhelmingly positive response for よつばと.

Just letting you know that よつばと 2 is still in the suggestions
