ヨコハマ買い出し紀行 1

A pleasant enough read, but no wish to continue.

I have had this on my shelves since the early 2000s, when I bought it at a bookseller (probably the long-gone Sasuga Books) at an anime convention. My copy is from the original 14-volume edition, so the contents may not map 1:1 to the edition here on Natively. I do not believe the difference, if any, would change my review.

Twenty years or so ago, this book was extremely difficult for me due to the absence of furigana. When I returned to it in November of 2022, to my surprise and delight I was able to read it in less than two hours with minimal lookups. But...that was the most enjoyable and memorable aspect of reading it. There was nothing wrong with the story or its execution, but also nothing that hooked me.

I won't be continuing this series. Nothing wrong with it; just not for me.
