Mount TBR Challenge 2024 discussion

I'm back again, for my seventh year whittling down my TBR! While my English TBR is in excellent shape (6 books!), I also do a lot of reading in Japanese, and Japanese books are very cheap ($5 new, $2-3 used), so they're very easy to buy lots and lots of.

I started at Mt. Wychproof and have made it through Pike's Peak and Mount Blanc, but I would like to complete Mount Aratat.

Review: This was a very fun manga! I read it several years ago in English and remembered enjoying it. The premise seems simple initially but there are unseen forces at work that complicate character relationships. Looking forward to volume 2!
