that sentence was a lie )

crappy translation )

* Imuri, you are not allowed to make up so many words you've got to spend pages explaining them and have a glossary in the back. Only English-language books by either Anne McCaffrey or Marion Zimmer Bradley are permitted to do this to me.

There's also a dramatis personae, a diagram of the fictional planet's complicated caste system, and a little inset card with the diagram on it again, which I nearly tossed because I thought it was an ad. Why is it there? So you can, like, pin it up on the wall in case you ever need to refer to it? Is it to put in your wallet? I feel like every book I ever read in middle-school just got together and mugged me.

...my life is such a cesspool of deceit that I feel the need to stress that this description is not an April Fool's joke. This is something that the manga actually did.
