What did the servant do to him?
There is a segment in this book where the MC just sees his GF being plapped by his friend and does nothing about it
He rapes his sister, Phoebe.
>>25043602He sees her getting raped by a stranger who broke into their home while he's drinking with his friend and goes back up to the roof of his house to finish drinking instead of stopping the rape. I've been working on a thesis about how japanese are soulless subhuman dogs.
>>25043595I don’t get why this book is popular at all. It’s just a bunch of self-pitying and weak nonsense.
>>25043595Should I read this or the Tuttle translation?
>>25043733Read something else. This book sucks ass. Only the opening chapter is memorable and even that is just a bunch of bitching.
>>25043727Yes, proto-anime.
>>25043733Read the Junji Ito adaptation because even he knows that Danzai is just a whinny faggot
>>25043695I just finished the book and I honestly believe his wife didn’t get raped but cheated on him. Why did she scream out for help if she was getting raped? If this sounds absurd my ex gf hooked up with her coworker while we were together and in order to make herself not look bad she lied and said she was sexually assaulted and played the victim. It wasn’t until months later I looked through her phone and saw the texts between her coworker and her and learned not only was it consensual she was the one who hit him up to hook up in the first place. Essentially, women are lying whores.
>>25043727>>25044115I know it seems like a bunch of self pitying and whining but to my best judgement it appears that he was raped/sexually assaulted by one of his parents servants when he was a child which led his mindset to be so horrible and why he felt so alienated from everyone. Interestingly enough one of my best friends was molested by her uncle as a child. As a teenager and young adult she had serious depression and anxiety and problems with self image and severe self hate. Unfortunately she fell into substance abuse and took her own life last year. RIP.
>>25045059*why didn’t she scream out for help
>>25043733Aren't they both by Donald Keene?
>>25045077Rest in peace to your friend anon
>>25045077I was molested when I was 12 years old and experienced several other traumas as a child and it led me to developing a completely warped personality filled with hatred, self loathing, narcissism and an inability to connect with other people or know how to love.One of my girlfriends was molested as a little girl and raped as a teenager and she basically ended up exactly as your friend (except that she has survived her multiple suicide attempts)I wish every pedophile in the world had one neck so I could strangle it
>>25045327Thank you.>>25045333Im very sorry you had to experience that. I hope you are able to heal.
