It feels like an eternity has passed since I started this episode, but in actuality it probably has been two months. I was a little bit dismayed that after a hiatus I miswrote the main character's name 杨敬华 Yáng JìngHuá, which occurs frequently, however I feel like my word recognition has vastly improved, like I've leveled up.
I'll give myself a gold star.
My favorite parts are the pure action sequences because there is very little talking and I don't have to keep stopping to check up every word in the dictionary. My least favorite parts are the argument scenes because multiple people are speaking at the same time and it becomes difficult to keep track of all the words.
