Hey, does Nasu's writing and stories remind anyone of Lovecraft?

>> No.2729229

No, but it does remind me of a high school writing class.

>> No.2729224

Nasu is too shit to be compared to Lovecraft.

I cheated - Regardless of the assignment, I just wrote essays. I can't do creative writing for shit (surprisingly), but I'm great at essays, so I'd get C's on the assignments at worst even though I woudln't even do the right work ಠ3ಠ

I used first person. Always thought third person was bland and boring.

Lovecraft is horribly racist and xenophobic, Nasu is Japanese.

I always chose to write essays at the exams (dunno about how it works in your country, but here you've usually got ~3 options for a theme) and I got straight A's with maybe two or three exceptions through my whole time in high school.

And I can't do creative writing to save my life.

I first thought I removed my trip and forgot, lol. As for how it works here, really depends on what it is, and the teacher/professor/whatever.

Some of the more standardized testing let you pick from a few options, but a lot of English courses and such the teachers would force you to do creative writing.

Final grades I did pretty good in the end, and when it was an assigned essay I'd usually get a top score, but they didn't want to give a good grade to someone for doing something they decided without any consent lol

Well either way, my point is that doing stories all in first person like Nasu does is evidence that he is a decent writer.

Why don't you try reading some of his works and deciding for yourself, instead of believing trolling that you see on /jp/.
