I wondered whether "claim" might have been better rendered as "the hopeless" to align more closely with the subject. How can one remain singular in today's fast-paced, often fractured, and volatile world? I doubt that a "becoming heroism" today would take on the same reclusive shape as it did in the poetess's later years.

Last weekend, I went to a big event for my favorite manga. I had been looking forward to this event for many weeks, so I wanted to prepare well. The day before the event, I used a face pack to make my skin smooth. I also chose my clothes carefully because I wanted to feel confident and enjoy the day. On the morning of the event, I woke up at 4 a.m., which is much earlier than usual. I slowly got ready and checked my bag many times to make sure I didn’t forget anything important. Then, I left my house at 5:40 a.m. I arrived at the venue a little before 7 a.m., but there were already many people waiting in line. Everyone looked excited. The event started at 10 a.m., so I had to wait for a long time, but the weather was sunny and warm, so it wasn’t uncomfortable. While waiting, I listened to music and looked at people’s outfits. Some fans wore clothes inspired by the manga characters, which was fun to see. When the event finally started, I went straight to the area I wanted to visit the most. There were displays, goods, and drawings from the manga. I felt very happy because everything was so interesting. I even took many photos so I can remember the day. After the event, I ate a bowl of tempura rice before going home. It was delicious and made me feel relaxed. The whole day was long, but it was one of the most enjoyable weekends I have had recently.
