What makes Japanese writing so schizophrenic in such a lame way? Maybe it just translates really badly and the meaning is lost in English but even the most appraised japanese writers like Kojima, whoever the fuck writes Dark Souls or mangakas like Fujimoto or Araki read like slop. Can someone explain why all nearly all Japanese media has this intrinsic quality? Could a jap ever write A Scanner Darkly or a TV show like The Sopranos? I don't think so

devilman and beserk are good though
