Is 'Carry On' Part Of A Series?

If you peek at the tags and warnings most folks paste under fanfiction links, you'll probably see 'Mature' or 'Explicit' next to 'THE ALPHA'S NANNY.' and that’s not an accident. I view it as an 18+ read: explicit sexual content, strong language, and adult themes like intense romantic power dynamics and caregiving boundaries are central to the plot. On many platforms the content warning boxes will flag sexual scenes and adult situations, so the rating is less a numeric code and more a clear adult-only label. I break it down to what actually matters to someone deciding whether to read: if you’re uncomfortable with vivid sex scenes, blunt language, or stories that lean heavily into dominant/submissive tension, this isn’t for younger teens. If you’re into spicy romance with emotional ups and downs, it lands squarely in the mature romance category for me — enjoy it if you’re over 18 and okay with explicit content. I found it messy and oddly satisfying in places, and it definitely isn’t bedtime reading for my younger cousins.

I stumbled across a thread about 'Just Reborn, the Heir Forced Me to Carry the Sedan for His White Moonlight' while hunting for something new to binge, and that kicked off a small rabbit hole. From what I tracked down, there are indeed fan translation efforts, but they’re a bit scattered. Some readers have posted partial chapter translations on community-driven index pages and on individual bloggers’ sites, while others are snippets shared in forum threads and Discord groups. It’s the kind of situation where a few passionate people translate chapters here and there rather than a single, steady project with weekly updates. If you want to follow the trail, I’d start with community hubs that aggregate translation projects — they often list projects, link to translators’ blogs, and note which projects are active or abandoned. Expect uneven quality and inconsistent release schedules: some translations focus on speed and will be rougher but frequent, while others are slow and polished. Also, there are sometimes scanlations if the story has a comic adaptation, but those projects follow a different group of scanlators and can have copyright/hosting complications. Personally, I appreciate the hustle of volunteer translators and the communities that form around niche titles like 'Just Reborn, the Heir Forced Me to Carry the Sedan for His White Moonlight'. I keep hoping publishers will notice demand and pick it up officially, but until then those community patches are my go-to — imperfect, eclectic, and oddly charming.

There are moments when the quiet of a novel punches through everything else I'm reading, and a stillborn pregnancy is one of those silences that authors use like a chord that's been struck and left to vibrate. In the books that haunt me, stillbirth often stands for more than the physical loss itself — it's shorthand for futures that were written and then erased. Writers use it to make time stop: the unbreathed child becomes a hinge around which memory and regret swivel. You get those recurring images — the empty crib, folded clothes that never get put away, the persistent scent of baby soap that no one can place — and they function both as literal detail and as symbol for failed hope, interrupted lineage, or the way grief calcifies in a household. When a narrator won't name the event directly, or when the pages go quiet right after the discovery, that silence becomes a character in its own right. I've noticed authors also invoke stillbirth to interrogate agency and societal pressure. In stories where bodies are policed by customs or laws, a lost pregnancy can signify punishment, stigma, or the cost of political control over reproduction — think of how reproductive failure can be weaponized in dystopias. Other times it's intimate: betrayal by a body, or a marriage rearranged by shared sorrow. In my own reading it's the mix of tangible detail and metaphoric weight that hooks me — the way loss operates on both the household scale and the mythic scale, resonating with other ruptures in the story. It leaves me oddly reverent and restless at once, turning pages with that weird respect you give to things that are both delicate and terrible.

Great news if you're tracking 'My Charmer Is A Don' — from what I’ve followed, the rollout is pretty typical of recent seasonal anime. The initial broadcast kicked off in Japan on a few local channels, and the international simulcast was picked up by Crunchyroll for most regions outside of Asia. That means you can expect the season to be available with English subtitles soon after each episode airs, and they usually add dubbed tracks a few weeks later if it’s popular enough. For Southeast Asia, fans often get releases through companies like Muse Communication or Bilibili, and in this case those regional platforms have been handling streaming and YouTube uploads depending on licensing. Netflix sometimes swoops in after the cour finishes to secure wider or exclusive streaming rights in some countries, but that’s usually a later move rather than the initial simulcast. So if you want near-immediate access, Crunchyroll (or the regional licensors’ channels) is the place I’d check first — Netflix might show it later on depending on territory. I’ve been keeping tabs on the anime’s official Twitter and the studio’s announcements, which is how I caught the Crunchyroll listing. It’s been fun to watch comment threads light up after each episode, and I’m already hyped to see how the dub shapes up — fingers crossed for a strong VA cast and extra extras on the home release.

Waking up to the idea of phantaminum felt like finding a weirdly shaped key lodged in the story's lockbox — and once I started turning it, so many doors creaked open. To me, phantaminum works mostly as a mirror of desire and consequence: it's seductive, raw power that reveals what characters secretly want and what they fear becoming. In quieter scenes it hums as temptation, in louder ones it detonates as corruption. I’ve been the kind of reader who underlines lines and doodles little arrows in the margins, and whenever phantaminum shows up I always scribble a question mark — because it asks the characters (and us) who they are when rules slide away. Beyond just being a plot engine, phantaminum often stands for ambiguous knowledge — the sort that promises salvation but asks for a price. That ambiguity lets the author explore moral greys without clumsy preaching: someone might use phantaminum to heal a wound, another to seize a throne, and both choices expose different kinds of hubris. It also echoes mythic tokens in stories like 'The Lord of the Rings' or the forbidden artifacts in 'Fullmetal Alchemist' where an object amplifies human flaw and virtue. I also see it as a social comment. When entire institutions get tangled around phantaminum — hoarding it, militarizing it, or worshipping it — the plot lays bare how societies bend around coveted power. On my commute I sometimes sketch scenes from the book in my head: a marketplace where phantaminum glitters behind glass, children playing with counterfeit shards, old leaders whispering at dawn. Those images remind me that symbols like this become storytelling shortcuts for readers and characters alike, pulling us into debates about ethics, identity, and the cost of change.

I still get a little thrill when I tell people who did the music for 'The Wind Will Carry Us' — it's Hossein Alizadeh. Watching the film late one evening, the score's sparse, resonant tones felt like another character: patient, ancient, and quietly insistent. Alizadeh is a towering figure in Iranian music, known for the tar and setar, and his touch here is more about mood than melody. Kiarostami uses sound and silence as storytelling tools, and Alizadeh's compositions slide into that space perfectly. The music isn't constantly foregrounded; it appears as subtle threads that tie the rural landscape to the film's contemplative pace. If you like hearing traditional Persian timbres woven into minimalist film scoring, this is a beautiful example. If you haven't listened to Alizadeh beyond the film, try searching out his solo pieces or ensembles — they give you a fuller sense of why Kiarostami invited him into the project. For me, the score still lingers whenever I think of those long, patient shots.

Whenever the eight of swords shows up for me in a reading, it rarely feels like a mystical warning from a dusty book — it feels like a mirror held up to my phone screen. I was shuffling cards in a noisy café last week, earbuds in, and this card landed face-up like a small electric shock: eight upright swords, bound and blindfolded. The modern twist is obvious — this is less about literal imprisonment and more about mental paralysis. It’s the anxiety that comes from too many choices, the loop of rumination after scrolling through other people’s highlight reels, the perfectionism that freezes bold moves into small, safe habits. Swords = thought; eight of them bound = thought patterns doing the binding. The card frequently points to cognitive distortions: catastrophizing, overgeneralizing, or assuming there’s only one ‘right’ timeline to follow. In practice I read it as a call to map the invisible fences. That can mean different things depending on context: in relationships it might show how shame or fear keeps someone from asking for what they need; at work it often signals analysis paralysis or impostor syndrome; in legal or bureaucratic settings it can literally reflect red tape or feeling trapped by rules. I like to pair it with cards that show action or insight — a reversed eight can mean the first glimpses of release, while pairing with 'Justice' or 'Strength' shifts the interpretation toward reclaiming agency and setting boundaries. I also lean into practical translations: identify the specific thought telling you you ‘can’t,’ test it with small experiments, or externalize the problem by writing down the rules you think you must follow and checking which ones are actually yours. What helps me personally is turning the card’s imagery into tiny, doable rituals: remove the blindfold (journal one honest sentence about the fear), loosen the bindings (commit to one 10-minute experiment that challenges the belief), and name an ally (text a friend to be an accountability buddy). On a deeper level it invites compassion — most of the binding comes from protective habits born of past hurts. So I usually close a reading by reminding people that unbinding is incremental; the nine and ten of swords don’t get fixed overnight. That slow, stubborn kindness toward myself is the thing I keep coming back to when this card shows its stark, modern face.

I’ve spent years browsing library shelves for crime and mystery books, and I can confidently say they’re treasure troves for fans of the genre. Libraries curate a mix of timeless classics like Agatha Christie’s 'Murder on the Orient Express' and modern hits like Tana French’s 'The Dublin Murder Squad' series. What’s great is the variety—you’ll find everything from hard-boiled detective stories to psychological thrillers. Libraries also often have lesser-known gems that don’t get as much spotlight in bookstores. Plus, librarians are usually huge mystery fans themselves and can give stellar recommendations if you ask. The best part? You can explore without spending a dime, which is perfect for binge-readers like me. Another perk is discovering older series or international crime novels that aren’t always easy to find elsewhere. I stumbled onto 'The Devotion of Suspect X' by Keigo Higashino this way, and it became an instant favorite. Libraries also tend to stock award-winning titles like 'Gone Girl' or 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo,' so you know you’re getting quality picks. If you’re into audiobooks, many libraries offer digital loans too, making it even easier to dive into a gripping mystery during a commute. For crime fiction enthusiasts, libraries are like a never-ending buffet of suspense.
