\It's something I've contemplating requesting it for a few days now, after I watched Zoo (2005)
Otsuichi has a lot of books published in English.
This one is kinda half-rescue request and I've made a lot of topics lately so I don't wanna flood the subforums just yet but u know!
Screw it!Otsuichi is one of my favorite authors and I love to see this!
Otsuichi is author of Zoo, Goth, and Summer, Fireworks, and My Corpse (published by Viz)
He debuted in Highschool with Summer, Fireworks, and My Corpse.His stories varies from regular story with unique setting or mundane setting with shocking or smart twist.
Why do I call this half-rescue request?
'cuz it contains 2 from 3 stories that were in "Calling you" which as published by TokyoPop back in 2007.The Publisher: Kadokawa Bunko
