I mean like>Dialects that are not watered down>Archaic, classical grammar and vocabulary>Wordplay and use of lesser known native Japanese words>Lengthy dialogues and complex sentence structure>References to Japanese media that are not anime>Academic conceptsHow hard can they get? Pic unrelated
Btw when I looked up such mango on Google I got picrel
>This will never get translated, shits too hard Was the common opinion back then. Don't know if true.
>>736477770It was because of the structure of the text display (top down right to left). That'd require fucky wucky engine tinkering not usually done by translators.Even Muv Luv (and Alternative), which had a normal display, was a nightmare due to spaghetti favela coding breaking during translation.
>Google hardest books in English>Moby DickHuh?
A few years ago I tried reading translated Genjimonogatari and almost fell asleep from boredomNobles must have been unemployed if they had time to write that stuff

Japanese were illiterate savages until Western colonialism. They have no literally culture predating Western imperialism atleast not one worth mentioning. They're just a nation of rice farmers. There is no Japanese Dante Alligeri, Shakespeare, Goethe or Cervantes

>>736477630Etrian Odyssey games supposedly use archaic Japanese

>>736477630You won't find a game that satisfies every requirement, but you can find media for each individually.>Dialects that are not watered downJap youtube or 2ch maybe.>ArchaicRead Towako or play Monobeno. Reading Towako is the smarter choice since there are translations available.>Wordplay and use of lesser known native Japanese wordsJust grind a ton of VNs. You will find them at some point.>Lengthy dialogues and complex sentence structureI think Tsui no Sora was like that but I dropped it.Most of your requirements will cause the "game" to be pretentious slop, so it's best to only ask for one thing at a time.
>>736477842Now that you mention it, why are games that were only intended for the JP market written horizontally left to right?
>>736485848That is how Japanese is usually written in on computers.
