    I recall there are 2 dudes in-house who do the research. Their names occasinally pop up, but I never properly register them.

    You might enjoy it, then. Maybe. The feminist stuff can be pretty unbearable at times, though. But if you can work through that, then yeah, go for it. It’s… something.

    They sure were. And yet, I dare say this book went even further than the rest.

    He took it from CCTV where the commenters are admiring the Japanese top ice-skaters form and quote Cao Zhi. What the author didn't know is the storm part is the commenters referring to his turns after quoting Cao Zhi. So his mistaken the whole line, and it became a laughing joke.

    This guy tends to also reference the most obscure shit that you could only find in some dusty old japanese library and nowhere else, so that's likely where a lot of really weird TM takes come from.

    I'll admit I did skip the 30 pages talking about menstrual blood, and every line that mentioned menstrual blood, and the whole long section about rape and sex and everytime it went on super feminist rants. (I ended up skimming a lot of those because how terrible it was)

    Genuinely did see some interesting stuff and I can definitely tell Nasu got his influence from it.

    We salute your suffering. Walker sure has a thing for drinks mixed with menstrual blood, yes.

    Reading that book is An Experience™, especially if the reader is an SMT fan since that they take much more from it.

    Kiyomune Miwa, the occult nerd who has been working with Nasu since Fate/stay Night, and Ryou Morise, the official translator for Lovecraft's entire work (hyperbole, he did only the big famous ones).

    I need to find the Spanish version of this book, I wonder if it even exists in my country.

    It exists, and oh boy the price. Pretty sure it's going to be cheaper to buy it in English like I did with The Life-Giving Sword, amazing book btw.

    Basically, the entirety of Strange Journey. Mem Aleph is an original creation of Walker.

    Huh, Oberon still invokes Heracles and Theseus even as Vortigern, what's up with that
