It's time. It is time... to see how Kyoko Okazaki handles a oneshot as opposed to a serialization (spoiler alert it's brilliant). It's been a while since we last worked on something by her, huh? I've honestly been curious about her skill at the short story so I'm really excited by this project. She's quite obviously channeling some Godard here, his New Wave period, you can see stains of Breathless and even Pierrot The Fool. There are 5 stories in this collection but I haven't had the chance to read beyond the first yet, if they're anywhere near this one in terms of quality then...well, what can I say, another great book from Kyoko Okazaki.
Massive thanks to Jawsh for the raws.
The evil is here...
Thank you! More Okazaki, yay!
ReplyDeleteThis story was strange, the characters motivation kill their parents still feels like a mystery to me, but I guess the girl probably did it because her dad abused her?
They were each abused by their parent but Eli's mother was tender with him that's why he's a bit conflicted and he has nightmares about her and can't sleep.

ReplyDeleteThere's also a typo on End of The World, page 22: oearly > early
Deleteand there's a stray lorem ipsum in the end of the world table of contents
DeleteThat's what happens when you stay up late into the night to finish up the chapters. We'll get them done before the next chapters are ready. Thanks.
