As of 4/24/06, I’ve edited parts of the first three chapters to match the intended time frame with the actual Japanese school calendar. Originally it was set during summer break (about a month long), but I didn’t realize that was already in the middle of their academic year; I wanted it this way so I could get to Natsuki’s birthday, but I guess that won’t happen now. :P Anyway, I set it back to spring break before the new school year, but the timeline has been substantially compressed because the Japanese spring break between academic years is usually only two weeks(!) right before April. Fortunately, the edits weren’t too terrible; there’s a major edit in 1.1 (new paragraph) and just a few tweaked lines in 1.2 and 1.3.
I dislike having to “feed facts by narration spoon,” but I decided it was easier this way to avoid confusion. Oh well. I also suspect many people would never have noticed had I not brought it up. ^^; Too bad! Now I can get started on 1.4 in a few days.
For the record, chapters 1.1-1.5 are supposed to happen within a 24-hour period anyway. O_O (No, really? Yeah, feck.)
P.S.: Thanks to ifuritka for humoring my temporary insanity.
I’m glad I was… useful:)
And about ep 25 being around Nov – once somewhere (I don’t remember where)I saw MH timeline. I don’t know if it was made by bored smart fan, or based on some official source. But it worked for me – I’ve checked it during rewatching MH.
