The only hard part is shopping the beer glass in ZUN's afterword.

Gonna have to think about it.

Yeah, compared to the other books, it was defintely a lot faster. Fortunately, we had a native speaker provide the original material on the wiki and that helped a lot.

It really is wonderful to see. And a very interesting book to read as well, I got a lot of neat little tidbits out of it.

...But almost as awesome as that is that GoM's translation seems to have sparked more work on what remains of the other two books. I'm giddy as a schoolgirl! You and all the others who've been working on those are among my favorite people right now, Forza.

Yeah, pretty nice, but you should make sure everything is consistent as far as the notes and types go. Also, looking at it now, I think that "Seen Often" works better.

Also, I don't think that there be any second-person pronouns (like you). I kind of decided on that half-way through translating it though, so... yeah. Maybe it still needs a bit of editing.

Speaking of grimoire, have you ever been to the "new age" section of a bookstore? I've seen some REAL books about magic.
The feeling was so good that I ejaculated immediately within 5 seconds of starting the rape starting.

Those are mostly to trick lonly women into thinking that doing some bogus spells will give them more self confidence

Well I once saw a book that told how to do Tarot readings, and it came with a pack of actual Tarot cards. Also I once saw a book on how to interpret dreams. Another book told of real magic, such as how to make a healing wand from a quartz crystal (the emitter) and a copper pipe (as the handle) and other such mystic spells and cool stuff.

There's Franz Bardon, as well as Aleister Crowley, but there's numerous other authors. I've read through part of the book linked above, interesting stuff, even if it has no practical value (although, I have suspicions that it's true, otherwise there would be no reason for writing the book to begin with).
