MERRY CHRISTMAS @bucketkizuu

For the @bungostraydogs-secret-santa event!!

I love what @samuraionyourmom has said because people don't seem to understand that some things are like a comfort space? Like I am not telling you to enjoy it? but you don't have to hate me for liking it. It's my opinion

"what's your favourite horror movie?" I don't know? Maybe the fact that izana realised that he was about the lose the person he cared the most about and didn't even hesitate to sacrifice himself? And that warm smile he gave in the end?

This is a weird question but in school I need to read 5 short stories and write small review entries about said stories. I was wondering how many short stories do you know? Sorry if this is worded weirdly, I didn't know how to type out my thoughts. Thank you and hopefully you understand what I mean.

I know a lot of short stories by the Japanese BSD authors. I’ll include a list of some of my favorites and some links (because a lot of the books are expensive and out of print):

“The Moon Over the Mountain” by Nakajima Atsushi: link

“Run, Melos!” by Dazai Osamu: link

“Meat and Potatoes” by Kunikida Doppo: link

“The Self-Made Man” by Kunikida Doppo: link

“The Human Chair” by Edogawa Ranpo: link (starts on PDF page 14)

“The Psychological Test” by Edogawa Ranpo: link (starts on PDF page 37)

“Night on the Galactic Railroad” by Miyazawa Kenji: link

“Rashoumon” by Akutagawa Ryuunosuke: link (download the PDF)

“The Dancing Girl” by Mori Ogai: link

“Lemon” by Kajii Motojiro: link

“The State of the Times” by Oda Sakunosuke: link

“In the Forest, Under Cherries in Full Bloom” by Sakaguchi Ango: link

These are just some of my favorites that are also great examples of Japanese short stories. All the links come from the BSD Recommended Reading List, and there are a lot more short stories in this list, so feel free to browse and see if there are any that you would like to use.  

If you want to have more Western authors then you can use the following sites for Western BSD authors:

Edgar Allen Poe

H.P. Lovecraft

Franz Kafka

And this website has links to short stories by a variety of authors like Anton Chekhov, Mark Twain, Herman Melville, and Ray Bradbury: bookbub.com

I hope that this can be helpful with your assignment! If you’re like me and you want to read shorter stories that have a lot of meaning in them then I would start with “The Moon Over the Mountain,” “Rashoumon,” “Lemon,” and “Run, Melos!” Those stories are also studied in Japanese schools, if that helps you know what stories to choose. But if you don’t care what length then any of them will do. It would be fun to write about “The Human Chair” because it’s more of a mystery/horror story, or “The Psychological Test.” But really just find five short stories that resonate with you and go with it! 

Good luck, and I’m happy to help if you have any more questions!

It was never just a phase
