July has arrived. It seems like the rainy season hasn't ended yet (in the Tokai region)? However, there hasn't been much rain lately. Recently, when it doesn't rain, it really doesn't rain at all, and when it does rain, it pours like a torrential downpour. The gentle, atmospheric drizzle has become less common, and everything seems to be getting more wild. While I'm somewhat skeptical about whether CO2 is really the culprit, climate change does seem to be real based on what I'm experiencing firsthand.

Now, onto the main topic - I continue my daily trial and error process. However, things went relatively smoothly in the latter half of last month, so overall I've made it to about halfway through the project. When you look at RPG Maker DLC, there really aren't many effect materials available, are there? I guess they must be difficult to create. To be honest, I'm also not great at conceptualizing effect animations myself 💦 (though I used to work as an animator way back in the day...) I'd like to complete this by the end of August if possible... but well, it's a daily process of taking three steps forward and two steps back, so I'd appreciate your warm patience as you watch over my progress.
