She was reborn as the daughter of a soldier in a world where the literacy rate is low and books were scarce. No matter how much she wanted to read, there were no books around. What is a bookworm to do without any books? Make them, of course. Her goal is to become a librarian! So that she may once again live surrounded by books, she must start by making them herself.

Adapted from the light novel "Honzuki no Gekokujou."

Few months ago I watch ExtraCredits about ancient Summerian. They dont bake the clay. They just leave it dry. Maine next project will be intresting because she is somehow correct, although not even 50% correct.

Well, honestly, she had so many unusual skills (like papyrus knitting) that her not knowing how to bake clay is actually refreshing. 

 

Well, it's...not that.

Spoiler

Just to say it gain.

 

Be prepared, she will ruin many many attempts at this.

 

... like not drying the clay tablets ...and bakeing them while they contained lots of water.

 

Water>heat>enclosed steam>explosion>broken stuff.

Easy right?

Author makes that girl so stupid ... as an bookworm ... it hurts.

She probably only read for fun ... and doesn't even learn shit out of it.

(same as the authors plot ...)

 

Why am i reading this then?

.... im a big M. I love mental pain.

Nhhh~

If that video is worth anything, adding from what we're gleaning from recent chapters:

Well (some spoiler)

Spoiler

that's spoiler heaven.

Litterally all the novel pictures realesed to that date... strung together with chilly music.

 

xD put it in spoilers!

Either a steam explosion from not fully drying the clay... or it contained limestone and other impurities that should've been removed by slaking the clay(add ton of water to it, mix it up until it's a creamy substance) and then passing it through a window screen to get rid of rocks and others crap in it...

She is supposed to be adult in childs body, but. . . . well whatever.

Pedobear 101.

blasphemy, you cannot hide from truck-kun, he is everywhere and nowhere, in all things... you can be in  SPACE in orbit around jupiter, and TRUCK-KUN WILL FIND YOU!!! and you WILL get isekai'd!

 

MC was killed by a book about Trucks.

An highschooler in an childs body with the social skills of an fly and the memory of an goldfish.

Atleast the story gets cute after lots of mind abuseive bad pre plot about failed attempts ...

Honestly, I think ALL HSers have the memory of goldfish.

Source: My own, years ago.

Hmmm... so truck-kun subcontracts out to book-kun from time to time, huh? I guess it's difficult for truck-kun to get to some points of termination due to his size.

I should note that Maine is using paru as a stand-in for okara, that is, the dregs leftover from pressing soymilk out of the soybeans, not okra, the ingredient used in Gumbo.

One or twice is okay but if she fails many many times then she's just an idiot at that point


The WN tells that she only had one attempt before mother forbid her from repeating it.

There's a difference between knowledge and experience. Most people don't tend to remember every single detail of articles they've read.

It's not like she can't figure out why it exploded, but she's forbidden from making any more clay tablets

Dunno know if this is an official video or AMV but spoilers ahead, you've been warned:

that's spoiler heaven.

Manga removed her violent threats. In the WN, I think she was supposed to say things about "crushing Fay like he crushed her tablets", or "making it so he could never enter the forest again". They were supposed to show up really late, causing Maine's father to scold them when finding out she had no intention of keeping their promise, but fearing over the character of his daughter and her devotion to creating "BOOhkz".

Hormones are different.  It's not surprising if she's emotionally not too stable.  And it's also not surprising if she's new at dealing with people, 'cause before she died she was a serious loner.  So she's basically a kid except for some knowledge and the ability to make and consistently pursue long term plans.

The female character Mikoto and Maine are great protagonist but Asuna and beyond is just perfect fantasy waifu. the male protagonist are beyond pathetic, all of them are bland self insert, ecept accelerator which is a good written character and with mikoto both of them are better written character than the bland protagonist himself.

 

 

Are they really that well received? I stopped reading around the 30th chapter because of how annoying I found Maine

Since the RAW is in black n white, I'd like to point out
