The Japanese version of "Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio" bites! It's beautiful! The cherry blossom-like text is enchanting! It hurts! A bittersweet love story between humans and ghosts! The Japanese edition has sold over 4 million copies.
Based on this work, dozens of movies, TV dramas, and comics have been adapted, yet none have surpassed the imagined world of the novel.
Legend has it that during the Heian period in Japan, the world was still divided between light and darkness, with humans, ghosts, and demons coexisting.
Onmyoji Abe no Seimei, dressed in white robes, was elegant and unrestrained; the warrior Minamoto no Hyouma, with a long sword at his waist, was simple and upright.
A pair of devoted friends, indifferent to life and death, roamed the realms of the living and the dead, solving one bizarre incident after another with wit, bringing relief to both humans and ghosts.
Heart-stirring! Exquisite! A dream-like story!
Ordinary people love dreams because dreams make them feel extraordinary, and great people love dreams because dreams make them greater.
Fantasy literature is filled with dreams—wonderful fantasies, legendary characters, strange plots, eerie atmospheres, and witty, humorous language.
