Fantasy Buddy Reads discussion

After skipping doing any challenges in 2022, I thought I'd come back to this one. I didn't quite hit 50% last time, but I came close, so I'll keep the percentage goal the same.

Part of me wants to up the ante in some way. Try to write more polished reviews. Less word vomit. Have some sort of format. Alas, that's just not me. However, even though I could not tempt myself with cookies to write any bilingual reviews last time, I think I'll give myself a gold star to highlight the reviews where I liked how it turned out. :)

Goal:
⭐️50% Reviewed
⭐️Manga series treated as a single volume
⭐️I get a cookie for bilingual reviews
⭐️I get a gold star for the ones I like

I'll continue with this previous format, with the addition of stars:
✅ Complete
⚠️ Pending
❌ Not Going to Bother
🍪 Bilingual
⭐️I like this review! I get a gold star!
