At the time I first read C&P Raskolnikov was literally me but a lot poorer. Thank stars Dostoyevsky showed me the folly of my immature thinking and saved me from such immense faggotry

no. honestly I have never seen a character I thought was all that much like myself at all. I suppose my type aren't very entertaining.
neither heroic nor depressing enough.

I expected to relate to Catcher in the Rye because ive heard about but i didnt feel any connection. I guess the closest would be Manifesto by Anonymous

Because of cucks. The japs can either write kino or cuckery. It's worth sifting through the basedfilled beta cuckery though, because the kino is great. Unironically check out the manga/graphic novel adaptations of the book, there are several and they are pretty nice.
