As someone who understands Japanese, the blog is a treasure trove of things in Japanese that well, don't carry over as nicely, hence those TL notes. So many "Yeahhh I know that feel" moments there! Especially amaeru, which I struggle to carry the meaning across in English as well...!
I highly recommend reading it even if you don't watch anime; it's a treasure trove of daily Japanese life references that don't usually turn up on mainstream media. It's also due to Kobayashi's Maid Dragon being set in modern day Japan with several slice-of-life elements, and Kyoto Animation tends to do an extremely good job of portraying those small moments of happiness.
Thanks for sharing this, didn't know it existed. :)
