Fic: Ascendance of a Bookworm - Viscountess Eeville and the Spotted Shumils - Gen
Apr. 13th, 2026 06:40 amAuthor/Artist: foxinthestars
Title: Viscountess Eeville and the Spotted Shumils
Pairing: Ferdinand & Rozemyne
Rating: General
Word Count: 1005
Highlight for Warnings: *none*
Disclaimer: This is a work of fanfiction; I do not own Ascendance of a Bookworm or its characters.
Summary: An animated movie song lands Rozemyne in Ferdinand's lecture room for more literary culture shock. As usual, everything she knows about storytelling is wrong — including the idea that everything she knows is wrong.
A/N: Just a little slice of hopefully-amusing culture shock, inspired by a private joke/earworm I get whenever I see the series' worst villainess. Novel canon (although the current anime season is eventually supposed to cover when this takes place).

The case of the missing notifications
Apr. 11th, 2026 11:58 pmI keep forgetting to post about this: we've been troubleshooting the "missing notifications" problem for the past few days. (Well, I say "we", really I mean Mark and Robby; I'm just the amanuensis.) It's been one of those annoying loops of "find a logical explanation for what could be causing the problem, fix that thing, observe that the problem gets better for some people but doesn't go away completely, go back to step one and start again", sigh.
Mark is hauling out the heavy debugging ordinance to try to find the root cause. Once he's done building all the extra logging tools he needs, he'll comment to this entry. After he does, if you find a comment that should have gone to your inbox and sent an email notification but didn't, leave him a link to the comment that should have sent the notification, as long as the comment itself was made after Mark says he's collecting them. (I'd wait and post this after he gets the debug code in but I need to go to sleep and he's not sure how long it will take!)
We're sorry about the hassle! Irregular/sporadic issues like this are really hard to troubleshoot because it's impossible to know if they're fixed or if they're just not happening while you're looking. With luck, this will give us enough information to figure out the root cause for real this time.

Spring 2026 Premiere Impressions
Apr. 6th, 2026 12:32 pmWitch Hat Atelier: Not much to say here except "Yup, that's the good stuff."
Observation Log of My Fiancee Who Calls Herself a Villainess: I found the male lead / viewpoint character and his attitude toward the titular fiancee irritating, plus there was a minor plot point made of fatphobia, so this one's a pass for me. On the other hand...
Always A Catch: This looks like the "fun villainess-genre-adjacent anime" I wanted. Our heroine is straightforward the point of silliness but also caring and assertive, and seriously, she wears brass knuckles as a hair accessory. I'm in until further notice.
Agents of the Four Seasons: I enjoyed episode one, but it was pushing the line on being self-importantly sentimental, so I'm almost afraid to keep going...?
Ascendance of a Bookworm Part 3: I'm a big fan of the franchise and this is getting into one of my favorite parts, so I was hyped, but being a big fan of the franchise also makes me picky, and I actually found the premiere disappointing. As an adaptation, it felt humorless and superficial; like, the art was more pretty than functional, and it felt like just watching a sequence of events rather than inhabiting Myne's often-amusing viewpoint like I expect to. So yeah, great material here and as a fan I'll keep watching, but I'd recommend the manga (or the original novels) over this anime season so far. The OP is quite pretty, tho.
[PS: I steered away from Rooster Fighter for the silly and quirky reason that I'm also a fan of the web novel Beware of Chicken and will accept no substitutes.]
