what a poignant, action-packed story that introduces elements of the world in the smoothest way possible. Forewarning: don’t get too attached to the characters. I made this mistake and had the carpet ripped from under me.
The story weaves different East Asian cultures seamlessly and is narrated by 2 characters. I’ve laughed and I’ve cried reading this. It’s long as hell but worth it.

There’s something about Japanese fiction sometimes that just hits different.
But i really liked this one because it felt like many of the characters were just outcasts and every normal person in the story was the enemy, and sometimes that’s how i live my life 😂

Whenever my friends and I hang out at a restaurant or store, I make sure to pick up the little neglected business cards at the cashier or take the post card attached to the restaurant check.
I take them home and tape them to a page in my journal as a memory of the day. My roommate and I have started collecting the restaurant post cards and hang them on the fridge because we love to go out to eat.

😃I’ve actually had a recurring dream where 2 people in my friend group (who idk irl— they’re totally made up) broke up and the guy started dating another of the friends. The girl was fine single but we had another guy in the group who was in love with her and wanted to ask her to marry him (despite our pleads for him not to).
Each dream, he gets closer and closer to popping the question. The last dream I had, he’d finally got down on one knee and was about to do it at the weirdest and inopportune time. And as soon as he opened his mouth to ask, I woke up. The dream hasn’t come back since.
Oh and we’re around our late teens/early twenties I think? I’m in my thirties so I thought this was a significant detail.
I haven’t deciphered it yet but I can’t believe I haven’t finished this saga.
