Save vs hip

Go check out my latest Principal Skinner* impression at Néojaponisme: a review of Hiroko Yoda and Matt Alt's new (to the US!) book Yokai Attack!

[I]f you were baffled by the part in John Bester’s translation of Yoshiyuki's Dark Room where the narrator casually likens an interlocutor to "a cat that's turned itself into a pretty young woman and been caught in the middle of the night, lapping the oil out of the night lamp," Yokai Attack! is the book for you.

Also recommended to those who enjoy the human emotion codenamed "fun."

* "The only monster in this book is a lack of proper respect for the IPA!"

Popularity factor: 1

Bill:

Looking forward to the YokaiClix supplements.
