Is there a chart for dark, violent, edgy books? Something like pic related or Kosinki's Steps is what I'm looking for.

Dunno, the main character is pretty sympathetic. He isn't painted as a villain, he doesn't take a strong moral stance on what happens in the book. It's a very long novel and goes into great detail about the war.

I found a lot of The Sailor Who Fell from Grace with the Sea to be disturbing.

does /lit/ even like Mishima? he seems easy to make fun of with him being a samurai larping manlet after all

He's been a mainstay of /lit/ for awhile and one of the most popular Asian authors here. There's a contingent of his fanbase that wants to eliminate any gay connotations to his character and preserve him as the honorabru right wing samurai and so I think some of the mockery of him comes in backlash to that.
