And just being reminded of どんどん橋、落ちた makes me laugh, as that one *really* got me off-guard.<br /><br />If you use Twitter, you could always add me (@tantei_kid), I'll make sure to follow back then!Ho-Linghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04673330638260132388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8031063966272508587.post-57129207508761113952021-12-02T18:39:42.730+01:002021-12-02T18:39:42.730+01:00Thank you so very for your reply!

The works I'm using include 「どんどん橋、落ちた」(綾辻行人), 「私」 (谷崎潤一郎), 「虹色の歯ブラシ」, and potentially 「Goth」(乙一) as well as 「収束」 (麻耶雄嵩). It's slowing growing out of scope but at least I am having a lot of fun revisiting these works as well as reading other people's thoughts on them. <br />I'm sorry if I comes off a bit rude, but I wonder where else can I find you? I would love to keep in contact if that's ok. If engaging in direct conversations is not of your interest, I also occasionally draw fan illustrations for detective novels (so far mainly on ダンガンロンパ霧切) and post them here https://www.pixiv.net/users/15657930 , just in case you would like to check them out. <br />Thank you again for keeping such a wonderful blog and have a nice day! <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8031063966272508587.post-4677912145318612522021-12-02T13:03:17.717+01:002021-12-02T13:03:17.717+01:00Hi!

A while back we talked a bit about lectures in mystery fiction in the comment section errr, in one of the posts here, and how it'd be cool if besides the usual locked room lectures etc. we'd see one for narrative tricks finally, but I guess your thesis kinda like that? ^_^Ho-Linghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04673330638260132388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8031063966272508587.post-79209303179129467642021-12-02T03:59:36.046+01:002021-12-02T03:59:36.046+01:00Hello!

Rainbow Toothbrush is one of the works I'm using to talk about the construction and rules of narrative tricks, and for the longest time I thought no one in the English speaking world would write about their thoughts on this work (I'm Chinese and people talk about it back there but rarely in an analytical way). I just really want to thank you for posting this, and oh well is your whole blog not a huge treasure mine...Shirley Liuhttps://twitter.com/Koneyainassnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8031063966272508587.post-68481040087324265342016-01-04T19:46:29.668+01:002016-01-04T19:46:29.668+01:00Ah, makes sense.Ah, makes sense.The Dark Onehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03453733187338447742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8031063966272508587.post-21922587144861634262016-01-04T08:38:38.526+01:002016-01-04T08:38:38.526+01:00I'd say I was more somewhere in the middle bet...I'd say I was more somewhere in the middle between the 'meh-fairly entertaining' spectrum for the first book. It's hard to explain w/o going into details, but the first book had a trick that was just utterly ridiculous, but it made sense in-universe. For the reader, it was hard to guess whether the author was serious abou it or not. But it was without a doubt a memorable trick, something I don't expect to ever see again in any other book.<br /><br />This second book is a bit more straightforward as a mystery (only a bit!) and thus less dividing than the first nove. This one is also more fun to read, because you see more of Raichi overall (in the first book it took a while before she took centre stage).Ho-Linghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04673330638260132388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8031063966272508587.post-64581436015716257562016-01-03T23:31:23.424+01:002016-01-03T23:31:23.424+01:00You linking this reminded me of a question that I ...You linking this reminded me of a question that I was meaning to ask,,,<br /><br />I admit, you didn't seem that enthusiastic about the first book, you seemed kinda, "Meh." about it.
