Ah, this year is finally coming to an end.

I feel like a lot of things happened, but I guess it just happened in the blink of an eye.

So today, while watching SS, I would like to take a moment to look back on what happened between these two in 2023.

January

It was the year of the rabbit, so I started out cosplaying as a rabbit. lol

Fufu, and Noriko-chan was still playing Endwalker at this time.

Yeah, yeah, I feel like I’ve been looking for my brother for a long time. lol

February

But it was almost the end of the story.

March

Come to think of it, the second installment of Hell’s Manderville Weapon started in March.

And finally, I cleared Endwalker and caught up with you♪

Fufu, it was when Noriko-chan wrote her first letter.

I feel like I was moved to tears every day.

April

Norirow-san and Noriko-chan will cry easily. lol

And around this time, my brother imitated me and turned into a paladin, and suddenly started making Zodiac weapons and Anima weapons.

Norirow-san is the type of person who gets really into this kind of thing.

Oh, and I cosplayed as Rydia, which I loved♪

Fufu, it suits you so well and is so cute.

By the way, around this time you remade all of the category headers on this NorirowNote.

I’ve been secretly modifying this Norirow Note without anyone knowing… I remember that after this, the server went down and something terrible happened💦

June

In June, you worked hard on PvP to get this mount.

Oh yeah, and I was happy when I got this baronial attire on a Island Sanctuary.

And in July, for some reason, Noriko-chan suddenly built a live house.

Noriko-chan was worried, or rather, you were quite angry. lol

Come to think of it, I was also happy that I got a new bike at Island Sanctuary in October.

And, October was a tough month with that spectacular Kentucky collaboration💦

I remember wandering around every day because there were no shops that sold anything. lol

November

There was a beta test of the North American Cloud DC in November, and it was a valuable experience.

I was also able to ride the golden expensive mount. lol

Also, the Fall Guys collaboration started and it was fun♪

December

Since the beginning of December, we have cosplayed as “Frieren:Beyond Journey’s End”♪

It was quite interesting to think about cosplay.

Also, I got the red armor that I had always wanted, and we even got to match the costumes.

It was quite difficult to go through PvP to get this💦

Hehe, when I think about it, we did a lot of things this year.

There was a miracle like this at the end of the year.

I think this world is truly a warm and kind world.

What kind of year will next year be?

In January, after the fan festival is over, the final form of the hellish Manderville Weapon will be waiting for me 💦

I hope you have many more fun adventures next year.

Well then, everyone, we hope to see you again next year!
