dark mysterious fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Plot
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

1.5

This is definitely the worst translation I’ve ever read. It was written really weirdly and some of the sentences were incomprehensible. I assume there are better translations out there (the one I read was an ebook from Amazon) but the stories weren’t interesting enough for me to look for them. I found most of them boring, although this might be due to the weird translation. However, I did like the Feather Pillow and Meningitis and It’s Shadow.
