Had a hot Japanese girlfriend. She was a total pleb who read self-help books and Murakami despite being extremely well educated by their standards. 3/10 consumerist shame-culture with weird food. The two points are for natural and architectural beauty and the high quality breasts of the women.

Most white girls with big tits are too soft and feel like whatever's in there is thinner, more liquid. I've encountered exceptions but that's just a common gripe I have.
A nice set of Japanese mammaries is firm and shaped like a flawless set of fakes but with a really pleasantly firm yet pliant texture.

Japanese lit is super comfycore. Nice easy to read with attention to aesthetic details and effective conveyance of simple themes. Stuff like Kokoro, Snow country, master of go, etc. Are just super nice reads.

Indeed. The only few old-men-grunting arguments I can vastly support are those of the authors from the Meiji (and Miyazaki's concerning anime, but nevermind).
This is why I also think Japan is more cucked than Germany. The only exception I can think of is Oe, but even at that, he's still something of a whiny cuck. Only in some rare and very unique forms of art -some film and plastic arts- does Japan culture really feel true to their industrious asian -almost German like- work culture. Free of the guilt, the shame, the horrors. On the other hand there's a whole deep movement of recreating the old arts. Maybe there'll be a boom or something.
Even though he's not a great hero of mine, Mishima's point of what went wrong with Japan in 'Runaway Horses' still applies. But not concerning to the infantile ramblings of 'boo-hoo, the burecrauts and the taikons don't mind the emperor any more' (which I think was greatly exploided when all the late 19th European culture was introduced and the figure of the emperor was something more special), but more so on the views of Honda.

This is all just a priori from having read lots of fiction and some biographies. There's a couple of huge History of Japan books laying around that someday I'll get to.


More contestant for the top positions in a cuck rankings are most late 20th century Latin American authors, esp. those living in exile or having dealt close with repression. And of course, the Leninists and the Trotskyists, but they didn't influence much art worth discussing.

How strong is the literary culture of Japan today? I would imagine it's a little stifled with the cultural dominance of anime and manga. Wouldn't most aspiring writers end up writing manga or anime scripts for more dosh?

I'd say it's more telling that you think that's bragging than that I said it. There are plenty of pseudo-normies who come on here and feel some ambivalence about being attracted to such company. Sorry if that's not as funny to you as it is to me.

You asked about literature and ended up mixing it with the audiovisual, btw.

Japan's non fiction culture is pretty rich because there are so many technical niches need to be filled with different publications. And their universities are prolific with papers, just like any other first world country out there with a strong influence on industry matters. They have a large population of asidiuous magazine readers.
In regards to fiction, manga is many times more popular than comics (compared to the Western world, I mean). The publishers in that area are very strong, and rivalred by publishers of other areas, not really a Random House, literature oriented kind of contestant. Regular book publishers are important in other roles, with an awful lot of awards whose recipients rarely scale much higher (think dozens of american book awards).
They have their young adult like literature (light-novels, but they're world of their own) and their bestsellers. Crime and suspense is also very popular. And they are insanely hooked to blog tier self published material. Of couse, manga and anime aesthetics dominate mainstream young culture and literature, though. So who knows what their culture will be like in 30 years.

Fortunately tv, film and music will keep them on a saner level.
