Hello everyone! It’s been a few months since my last post, how are you? Are you enjoying summer?
In my April’s update I promised to be back around July, when my life would hopefully become a bit easier and I could resume playing otome games and sharing my reviews and TOP10; here I am, writing this post, even if the news I’m delivering today is far from good, sadly.
First of all, a quick update about my job, since this situation is one of the reasons why I needed a break from blogging and social media.
On March, my boss hired a new person, who was supposed to give me (and my poor co-workers) some decent freedom (the luxury of some free days and holidays, for example), but after a couple months this person realized how crazy this workplace is and resigned, quitting immediately.
Disappointed but not surprised, we’re still working too much for our health, hoping and waiting for a new co-worker who hopefully will stay with us longer; but I think we lost our hopes already, with their bad attitude my boss and my supervisor would scare everyone. Or make them ragequit, I’ve been tempted to do the same.
You’d probably understand why I’m rarely in the mood to write or play: when I finally get to relax a bit, I prefer to watch funny shows on youtube or listen to music, which helps me a lot; I can’t really focus on otome games, which I also play mostly in Japanese, since my brain refuses to concentrate on kanji.
I spent the last 2 months completely away from otome stuff, even twitter: I feel sorry since I’m not interacting with my friends as I used to, but I don’t want to bother other people with my problems and complains, I prefer to just stay silent.
I’m just recently going back a bit, playing slowly Bara ni kakusareshi verite, just to see if it’s good as many friends told me in the past; so far it’s great, but I can’t really promise there will be a review someday. Let’s see how my life goes.
This post is turning out way sadder than I imagined, I’m sorry! But I really wanted to update my long time readers, who were waiting for me to come back blogging, about my current situation.
Even if the premise is bad, I still think I want to keep this place alive, so I’m not here to say goodbye; actually, I have some half-written reviews and opinions about games I’ve played in the past which I plan to complete and share soon.
I know there are a lot of streamers now, blogs are outdated and no one will probably care, but if there’s still one person who is willing to read my opinions, then I’ll happily fulfill their wish.
Suuran Digit is the first review I’ll share, since I played it in April and I have a lot to say.
Even if you don’t see me around on twitter, if you’re interested come here from time to time, you may find some unexpected update.
Until the next time, stay healthy!

Hi!! I missed you on Twitter, but I know it’s been hard with your work ;-;
I hope someone gets hired so you and your co-workers can have some time off.
You don’t have to apologize. Even though you’re not online anymore or playing otome games… I’m still your friend and will ever be ^-^ <3
Actually, I prefer to read blogs than watch streamers lool
I support them, but I like to play the game and not watching others play lol does that make sense? lol
Plus: spoilers!! I don't like game spoilers!!
You can come to me, send me a message, anytime you want to talk. It's no bother at all ^-^

Thank you! ^^ this month will be though, but I’ll try to be more active in August, if I can. I hope at least you’ll be able to have nice holidays! (but it’s probably winter over there, isn’t it? snow in August feels so weird to me, I always forget it may happen somewhere!)

Hey!
I think it’s been a long time since I last commented/ read one of your posts. Life has been crazy lately, starting/ending a relationship, moving to a new continent to continue studies, and just being overall so weak against loneliness.
It’s alright to let things be on the backburner for a while! I’m sure that when you do come back, you’ll blow us away with your amazing posts. For real, when I read your posts and your opinions, especially when we have such similar tastes(!!!), it’s sooo comforting :)))
Even if most people move to streamers, or your posts get delayed because of life, I promise, I’ll read every single of them.
がんばってね！
