Let’s talk summer anime

This post is a long time coming. It annoys me when I tune into a Twitch channel just to find the streamer yapping for hours about their personal lives, so I won’t bore you with details of my own struggles. I’ll just say that my situation is still not great, but it’s better now than it was back in March. No new cats yet. Just been reading a lot of books and playing a lot of games.

It’s like a dream as we drift from scene to scene. At first, nobody wants to help Uka, so she’s careening around on her bike all by her lonesome. But eventually, the other girls get over themselves and lend a hand. Ganbatte this, ganbatte that, and our heroine is happy. For now.
