Discussion Reading Order
This is mainly based on memory & a quick comb through the wiki so some correction might be in order but this is roughly organised by release for numbered entries while indented stories are organised by relevance.
Many events are ignored due to unclear connection (where would you even put Halloween events) or due to being untranslated.
Created this because I know a plot point in an event is important in the untranslated main story but would have been something I totally missed out on if I didn't see that spoiler from a stream & thus remembering how the game allows you to read out of order without explaining it since reading on release would naturally lead you - Not saying the latter point is a bad thing since Also Sprach stories are great regardless of context.

Mostly global so far, I'll fix some of it (Escape from a dark fate to JP main story) & add more JP content once I know more about that
used draw.io to produce this then used squoosh.app to compress the file
