A post that I should've posted 3 days ago lol... (at least I added more today)

7/27
WuWa - I finally beat that Level 120 Lightcrusher!
Unfortunately, I didn't take a screenshot of getting the trophy pop-up because I was too excited haha

Yup Jiyan didn't survive XD (had to revive the team several times)


I have a Level 120 Lumiscale Construct & a pair of Lvl 100 Glacio Dreadmanes left... *sigh*

I'm not really good at dodging so my strategy (lol) for this was... Aalto. He saved me when I stumbled upon Scorpion's Nest (my Rover & Jiyan were dead at that point) by killing the remaining Diamondclaws. Started appreciating him more after that lol. At first he was just that convenient gun character :P... I chose him because I kinda like how he looks. Didn't realised until later that he's actually a good fit for the team (I just have to use him first before Jiyan). I did changed his main echo (usually it's Bell-Borne Geochelone) to Lumiscale Construct because it can parry attacks (and actually gave higher Glacio damage, I noticed, although that's not the main point lol). I also waited until I could get Aalto's skills (the important ones, at least) to Level 7 or 8 and his weapon (Static Mist) upgraded to Level 80.  

M3GAN
Oh hey, finally finished watching this last night (3 days ago so... 7/26)... Oof. It's not good. I find the main characters annoying and unlikable. The true villain is the aunt really... Also, it's kind of annoying how the characters kept asking questions (I sound like I'm nit-picking at this point lol)... I guess they really don't want to tell why M3GAN is like that (content for the sequel, maybe?). [Anyway.. saw a review on Letterboxd that mentioned about the Asimov's First Law of Robotics... Unfortunately, the programming of the robot in this one totally didn't follow that XD which is... fine(?), I guess, if they want to do it their rules. But it still feels dirty for some reason.. which brings us back again to the aunt being the villain for not thinking far enough]


Today
How Long to Read
I stumbled upon this site few nights ago. It's interesting to compare my records with their estimated time of finishing a book. I did their reading test and got 227/232 WPM (honestly it's not the kind that is easy for me to read so I'm not surprised I got that). I think it really depends on the genre and writing style really. In my case, at least. When I'm obsessed with the book/series, it's like I read faster than usual lol

Mystery/Thriller/Horror 
Six Four
232 WPM | Average 300 WPM | My record (from Read More app)
15h 51m    |    12h 15m    |    9h 22m

Death Notice
6h 12m    |    4h 48m    |    6h 2m

Battle Royale
12h 44m    |    9h 50m    |    8h 42m

Malice (Higashino Keigo's)
5h 4m    |    3h 55m    |    3h 36m

Interestingly, I read faster in this genre...? Except for "Death Notice" which I think I read more carefully because they explain things a lot. I do need to read more horror books though to see if it's still true for that genre.

Sci-Fi
Leviathan Wakes
12h 31m    |    9h 41m    |    9h 52m

The Hunger Games
7h 2m    |    5h 26m    |    5h 50m

Almost reach the average lol

Romance
To Have and to Hoax
7h 9m    |    5h 32m    |    7h 32m

Eligible
8h 48m    |    6h 48m    |    6h 15m

Yeah... I don't know about this one... maybe "Eligible" was faster because it's Contemporary Romance?

Translated Japanese light novels (Romance Fantasy)
7th Time Loop LN #1
8h 18m    |    6h 25m    |    4h 32m

The Saint's Magic Power is Omnipotent LN #8
3h 20m    |    2h 35m    |    2h 45m

Another contrasting one XD

Classics/Modern Classics
Mansfield Park
11h 2m    |    8h 32m    |    13h 25m

Catch-22
13h 37m    |    10h 32m    |    9h 0m

And more contrasting one..! But this one is probably due to the writing styles. Although I did read "Mansfield Park" for the first time... "Catch-22" was a reread.

Non-Fiction
Videocracy
7h 33m    |    5h 50m    |    7h 14m

The Last Lecture
3h 12m    |    2h 29m    |    2h 27m

I guess because "Videocracy" has more information stuff so I read slower? "The Last Lecture" was more of a memoir/self-help book... and it was also a reread.
