it's obvious yamashita has an amazing sense for psychological thrill, tragedy, and the telling of unconventional stories - BUT - at her worst most of these vignettes aren't properly developed, and fixate on very tangential or senseless moments
the flagship story was brilliant. the rest feel far too secondary.
Interesting. Not quite sure what to think, to be honest. I liked the first story best. Had kind of a hard time keeping up with the narratives and I'm a writer, so I am not dense and I can usually understand the situation.
Ethereal and beautiful stories, although the one where the handsome seme is shooting arrows at all the patrons in the restaurant with his charismatic looks was just plain funny.
