And sometimes Isurugi is just plain fun, like when idolizing Mizuki who he thought was just a fictional character in his favorite novel series or when he has moments like me when his imagination just runs wild.<br /><br />The Bishop Murders are still on their way into my postbox... And after realizing just HOW many works actually are a homage to Ayatsuji's yakata-series (or even jukkakukan no satsujin in particular) I just had to place an order including jukkakukan to know what apparently everyone seems to celebrate.

Another one for the list. And you also reminded me I still have to pick up Ayatsuji's Jukkakukan no Satsujin. Shame on me for still not having read any Ayatsuji!<br /><br />Making many references to European literature, art et cetera can be very annoying, if it comes out the mouth of a character. Especially if his name is Philo Vance.Ho-Linghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04673330638260132388noreply@blogger.com
