Another unusual furigana - kanji on kanji!
I guess 丑三つ時 is too obscure or poetic for their expected readers so they added 2時 to clarify what it meant. (from ゆるキャラ ン2)
Now I want recursive furigana where 2時 could have にじ written in even tinier text next to it!

The real challenge of studying Japanese is learning all the adverbs of which there seem to be an infinite amount!

Hiragana vs katakana usage! Even with the same word, Nadeshiko uses hiragana, while Aoi gets katakana. Perhaps it's reinforcing Aoi's accent? (from ゆるキャン1)
Unusual furigana!
Using kanji as furigana on katakana! Presumably シュラフ is less common than 寝袋, so the first couple of times it appears they give the meaning. (from ゆるキャン1)
English-ish katakana on kanji! I'm not sure which word they expect the reader to know. Maybe they're saying レクイエム, which means 鎮魂歌? (from Chainsaw Man)
I love all the fun and interesting things Japanese does to play with furigana and its 4 writing systems. Nonstandard furigana, but also what writing system is used for different effects
@AnthoDerv I use:
- jisho.org if on computer and can write
- 10ten firefox extension if reading on the screen
- 白檜辞書 (Shirabe Jisho) on iOS
- 大辞林 for iOS
- ChatGTP if the content is long, isn't confidential and I only wanna get the gist of it before diving deep
- Online searches mostly including words like 辞書、意味、違い、由来、語源学 depending on my goal
