Gaijin can't comprehend Japanese literature. Is it their culture or are they just low IQ?
>tfw too low IQ to understand One Piss
Consider the brown subhumans who read shounenshit and this is most likely true
>>223856192Japanese literature in general is low quality. You can get away with being an esteemed writer in Japan if you keep making half assed metaphors without actually writing anything of substance.
>>223856192The drama of The Cat In The Hat is very interesting. On the other hand, The Very Hungry Caterpillar is easier to understand because of the action and other aspects rather than the drama. I think that The Very Hungry Caterpillar doesn't require that kind of reading comprehension.
>>223856373mate, western literature is literally just women writing romance novels. they're both shit
>>223856192the many many layers of Wang Piss...VGH SASVGA JAPONIA
>>223856192its very obvious that if you're reading translations you're losing a lot of the more subtle parts of the work.i read a murakami book and i loved it but there's no way i didnt miss like atleast 20% of what he tried to put there just from the language barrier
>the layered drama of one pisscannot be a real thing someone said
Japanese literature > western literature
>>223856192The only thing western readers dont understand about manga and japanese works is japanese wordplay (they love this shit), and - ocasionally - certain cultural elements and what they are supposed to mean for the characters in the story You don't really need to know about geisha culture to understand Ai no Korrida
>>223856192>one piece>classic yakuza film
I'm a BleachChad, so, we're like 2% of the population with an average confirmed IQ of 160 points
