Tokyo Ghoul vs Literature: Dear Kafka’s Inspiration

The novel ‘Kafka on the Shore’ is another of Haruki Murakami’s works that share a connection to Tokyo Ghoul. The premiere work of novelist Takatsuki Sen, thought to be a homage to Murakami, is a short story named ‘Dear Kafka’. One possible reasoning for this titling in both works is that german author Franz Kafka was thought to have a strained relationship with his father, inspiring in some part the misery in his works. Author Takatsuki Sen definitely has deep running issues with her father, and the protagonist of Kafka on the Shore, a boy who calls himself Kafka Tamura as a pseudonym hates his father enough to run away due to previous abuse.

Sometimes a guy in a fanfiction has the ability to read someone's gaze with the same level of detail a wine taster can taste the wine

this fandom has truly ruined my ability to look like a normal person who doesn't just randomly snort with laughter to myself with no explanation at any given moment... because so many times a day I'll just be sitting there minding my own business and then suddenly remember some lawlight fanfic I saw one time where L's real name was revealed to be "Lustice"

mmm soob

I actually think this is a thing with anime in general, from what I’ve noticed.

Also, a lot of factors go into weight, like bone density for example. What counts as a healthy weight isn’t universal. I knew someone who went to see a doctor in Japan and was told they were overweight even though they were very thin and didn’t have any fat.

What the FUCK is up with the DN wiki's take on the characters' weights??? There ain't no fuckin way L is 110 lbs at 5'11. That's a BMI of 15 (way way way below healthy). He'd look like Eugenia Cooney.

For context I'm 5'1 and when I weighed 100 lbs I was a 00 in pants size! I was so small I struggled to find clothes small enough for me (granted I live in America).

Like realistically for his size he's probably roughly 130 lbs (which is still close to underweight for his height). Where the hell did they get 110 lbs??

And all the tall characters are like this. Light is 119 and Lidner is 115 when realistically they should be like 140. Lidner is thin but she is a bodyguard so she should have muscle which weighs more than fat so she might actually be a little more than that.

There's no way I'm overthinking this like it's just not possible people who are nearly 6 ft tall are under 130 without looking deadly thin.

"can you write?" I can certainly put words next to each other
