Reading is good!Nothing bad has ever happened just because someone has read a book!
>>51014663You don't think the world would have been better if Hitler never read Mein Kampf and got the bright idea to exterminate all of those Jews?
Yeah? What about the Necronomicon? Alice's grimoire? The Bible?
>>51014673>readanon............... he WROTE the book.
>>51014663Wasn't there a rape crisis caused by Muslim refugees in European countries a few years ago because they read the Koran (or however it's spelled)?
Opening a good book can change the world!
>>51014812just gonna write my name on this notebook so i remember that it's mi
>>51014663>Nothing bad has ever happened just because someone has read a book!Here's another example: A lady who was traumatized by guys in the past reads a story involving rape...need I say more?
>>51014663There's nothing good to read though...
>>51014673>>51014946Nothing bad has ever happened just because someone has read a book!
>>51014673I think he should have read it at least twice, so that his convictions would be even stronger than ever which would have allowed him to succeed.
But what if I can't read?
>>51015423Learn braile
>>51015005Then maybe it's time to WRITE
I remember her. She violated me in a sweltering summer, without mercy. I told them this demon scroll shit was a bad idea, but no one listened. I'll never be healed from my trauma.
>>51014663Is there any reason she has her name written on her apron?
Reminder that Kusuzu's parents hate her! her entire family hates her!
>>51016477I never thought I'd see a 2hu steal from Marisa. Daddy issues are her thing!
>>51014663What kind of books does Suzunaan have then? I imagine there's no better place to find new books in Gensokyo.>>51014946That story sounds familiar... Is it from a book or something?>>51016477'suzu will eventually prove herself to her family if she sticks to the path she's chosen! I believe in her!
>>51014673I have heard that it is an objectively poorly written book.
>>51016714It was from a first time author, give him some slack.
>>51016477Certified joyless and un-whimsical ass>>51016692>What kind of books does Suzunaan have then?The whimsical and fun kind!>>51015393His conviction for Operation Barbarossa was too strong, which lost him the war
Kosuzu is dumb and not that cute
>>51016804Shut.
>>51016832Reimu on the other hand is both cute and smart
>>51016832>Kills man for doing thing>Bends the rules to save woman who also did thing
>>51016851Nah, fuck that. FT was an idiot who did everything wrong, from attacking Kosuzu in broad daylight to turning around and directly insulting Reimu to her face instead of getting away. Most of all, he didn't even try to invoke Spell Card rules. He was a clueless moron through and through, not to mention a fucking yook.
>>51016786>The whimsical and fun kind!But what if I am personally inclined towards tragedy and philosophical pessimism?
>>51016971Write them yourself and open up a rival book renter that specializes in the most soul-crushing, dramatic stories and recollections imaginable. This will naturally set you off into a slow-burn 'opposites attract' romance with Kosuzu.
>>51016983Holy fucking kino somebody get a writefag on this
>>51016983Yuck! Nobody wants to romance a dork!
>>51014761They needed to be taught about consent and women's rights, they got the idea of raping women (who aren't covered up) from reading the Koranhttps://www.google.com/search?q=muslim+refugees+in+europe+taught+not+to+rape+women&start=10&dpr=1
>>51015361>Nothing bad has ever happened just because someone has read a book!>>288594102
>>51017437Sorry, newbie here>>>a/288594102
>>51017444I wonder what Kosuzu does when she encounters... such material. Does she put it on display with the rest of the books? Is there an 18+ section of Suzunaan? Does Suzu just keep it for her own enjoyment?
>>51016990You'd be surprised.
>>51014663What about this book?
>>51017478The 18+ section is just the romance books Reimu reads, that's as suggestive as she's willing to even hold.
>>51016786>The whimsical and fun kind!Is that what people call youkai books now?
>>51014663That wasn't very groovy, baby...
>>51017711There's gotta be atleast one book with a youkai and human couple. But would that go too far?
>>51018282You mean the one Mamizou keeps trying to sneak into the "non-fiction" section? It's self-published, it doesn't count.
>>51018308Hey, isn't a story like that the best way to teach people not to be mean to youkai?
>>51018473I reckon it'd just be seen as fetishistic content, sort of like how dark romance isn't something you're normally meant to replicate in reality, just enjoy in theory.There would definitely be villagers into that sort of stuff, but I imagine they'd try to keep it to themselves if possible and only talk about it to their fellow youkai fuckers.
>>51018282Oh there are plenty of such stories, though most of them are written by the tengu.
>>51018582Something tells me stories written by tengu, from a tengu perspective, won't have that much reach with humans.
Yall are insane ;-; like one bad book in the ocean of profound literature does NOT make every book in existence horrible.
>>51018569Youkai definitely infiltrate any gathering like that. Some for fun and others out of morbid curiosity
>>51018615Just one fooled reader is enough to spread heinous ideas and push for indecent, dangerous behavior, which is why several authors (supposed to be writing under aliases) have had to be banned from Suzunaan. It has practically gotten to the point of ideological warfare, with well crafted systems of innocent humans being bribed with food and gifts in exchange for said humans to sell the books under their name. And just like that, "The mortal who tamed wind" is on the shelves, with an equally foggy back cover description. Open the book, and wow, to everyone's surprise, it's a few hundred pages of smut featuring a female protagonist with a savior complex experiencing forbidden love with, you guessed it, a human, who is oh so miserable and down on his luck, for his world is oh so underdeveloped compared to this "society that shall not be named" and the girls in his village are apparently neither attractive nor interested in him in any way. Who could have guessed?
>>51018695Describing it as "ideological warfare" is a bit intense yeah? It's just some harmless books. No reason to restrict them so much. Or are you scared of what effect it would have if everyone were to read the truth?
>>51018719Truly. People these days are really into the kink of saying anything that is against what they believe, or would cause uprising against said beliefs, horrible and disgusting.
>>51018615They're always "based on a true story", the true being that they were once within five hundred shaku of a human, and the story being everything else.It's cheap smut consumed exclusively by virgins.The actual interspecies genre in the Human Village is dominated entirely by light novels with fairy harems, anyway. They can't ever print enough to keep up with demand. They're considered safe and unthreatening, and the relationships never progress to the point of actual sex, so it's considered appropriate entertainment for everyone, barring a few (loud) detractors.
>>51018925I wish there were more stories focusing on only one fairy with sex and marriage included. Sadly, I am only one man and the village does not take kindly to my odd tastes...
>>51018925Interspecies is proof of the damage degenerate outsiders had caused to our society, ever since more and more of their kind started popping up. Those people are so addicted to the immoral and prohibited that that not even the normalities of life can satiate them anymore, and so they resort to life-threatening bestiality to quench their animal lust.I'll excuse myself now, my horned girlfriend wants to talk to me about something (before you assume anything, she's not a youkai- the horns are just birth defects, she said).
>>51019061You say that. But the gene pool issue has gotten so bad your girlfriend has a HORN on her head! Maybe a tumor or an overgrown bone. I feel like with birth defects like that SOME outsiders are needed.
>>51018961Onaholes aren't meant for marriage, faggot.>>51019061It's just a bunch of harmless fantasy, dude. Let kids enjoy a world in which they can be the hero and make lots of friends and can leave the responsibilities of life behind for a little while.Fairies don't count as bestiality, either. They're just part of nature, like sex toys basically. It's just masturbation.You really need to calm down, Mr. I'm Too Stupid To Realize I'm Fucking An Unicorn.
Read the wrong book. Get groomed by a raccoon. Many such cases. Kosuzu should have been more careful.
>>51019876thankfully she will always have her friend Akyuu to pull her away from the dastardly youkai
>>51019380Big human boobies...
>>51018925>It's cheap smut consumed exclusively by virgins.Cut them some slack, the market is bad enough as is.Write about a youkai raping a human and no one will bother giving your work a passing glance, but let a human do the same and it's suddenly "innovative" and "bold and thought provoking".
>>51020121Maybe if it wasn't so obvious that the authors have never even seen a real penis.The amount of times I've seen them described as "spiked", "multilayered", or "prehensile" is enough to convince you that this crap isn't even worth using as toilet paper. It's a constant freakshow every time.

>>51020140>The Bridgekeeper's ShiftPretty sure all these "sales" are fraudulent. Ain't anybody who would read that crap.

>>51020140Well how about you do something about it then, Ms. "Agatha Chris Q"
>>51020159>From Konsultant to Konsort>...Orin the cat?Think less feline and more vulpine.
>>51020189Then, it must be Tsukasa.
>>51020159I think it could be >Starry Mountain of Renewed Dreams Doremy maybe? This one I really am unsure >From Konsultant to KonsortTsukasa the sex >Hold Me MoonshineSuika?
>>51016983>>51016986This is the best I could do. First fic I ever tried making too, so don't expect too much.https://files.catbox.moe/bwgr8g.txt
>>51020370>I>making
>>51021313If I genned it, why would I take more than a day to post it?
>>51014673Most people should read Mein Kampf, it should be mandatory in High School
>>51020140The most egregious one was that "Tale of the Bamboo Cutter."Ok Mokou, could you be any more obvious?
>>51021798I physically winced at the male lead's physical description. A "gruff older man with a paternal atmosphere to his presence, his light hair [...]".Mokou...
>>51020140>Whispers on the RiverbankAbsolute masterpiece. The drama, the romance, the lovemaking, everything about it is top tier>Pounding Mochi for a Throbbing SoulThis slop however, shouldnt even be on the top 10. Its literally just a bit of story and the rest of it is porn.
>>51020370Honestly Anon, that was great!
>>51021827She really misses her dad.
>>51014663I tried to read a book once. Then they took it away and said it was outside of my level and I lost all interest in reading as a hobby. On the bright side, surely this keeps me safe from cursed grimoires, hexed tomes, and whatever dangerous debaucherous scripts that taint the land.
>>51020140>A one-of-a-kind cure for ArachnophobiaThere's barely even any smut in here! It's all lovey-dovey romance and pining for family!It's like the author is just the physical embodiment of romantic fulfillment!
>>51016714The second one was better
>>51023315That's one book Kosuzu has for sure, considering everything forgotten gets to Gensokyo.
>>51020142Why can't human women be real... I'm so tired of rejecting the advances of tengu and youkai women
>>51023276>There's barely even any smut in here!all of the romance books in Suzunaan are like that... well, the censored version they sell there are at least. if you want the unedited versions, just stop by Geidontei after closing hours and approach the young, purple dressed lady. if you share a drink with her she might even give you a piece made by renowned author Kitsune Kumo, whos works have been outright banned from the store.
>>51025169Human women scare me a bit though.
>>51025911I met a human woman once. It was awful. Can you believe there's rumors we originate from those creatures? Horrific.
>>51025919Wait, they're real??
>>51025928Don't believe that trash, anon. They're false rumors, spread purposefully to discredit the stork market
Is Kosuzu even real? Is she a youkai?
>>51020211>Hold Me MoonshineThat could very well be any of the moonies.
Which Penguin Classics would Suzunaan stock? I also wonder if the shrines would have any. I feel like Byakuren would have the whole Pali canon and a good amount of secondary works based upon them which she would gladly lend, Futo and friends have a few 1,000+ year old scrolls that she loans out very selectively, and then Hakurei/Moriya have minimal literature
