as a counter measurement to copyright infringement, his royal highness decided to post the below mentioned as fair use.
Justen shook his head. The ones he didn’t want wanted him, and the one he wanted didn’t even seem to achknowledge that he was anything other than Gunnar’s younger brother. And of course, Gunnar wasn’t interested in Krytella except as a friend, just Krystella wasn’t more than friendly to Justen himself. Is life always so perverse? Or is it that peope always want what they can’t have?

and so it seems, an author who penned his book in the mid nineties shared similar thoughts…
and he finally managed to finished the chinese book titled, “春日凉宫的阴谋”.
(Click on the picture for more details)
and he is impressed. indeed he is. impressed by how the author managed to twist such a single plot on v-day into a 400 odd page novel. rather, the original book’s written in japanese. and some taiwanese chap translated it into chinese for chinese readers.
though, based on what his highness has learnt in cl2280 and cl3218, basic and advanced translation respectively, there are still some parts in the novel where the chinese lingua arrangement was rigid, or simply 生硬!!! but then, it’s still aok, considering there’s lots of technically terms and lingua that attends to japanese customs.
and now… on to book 08 of the series! “春日凉宫的芬愤慨”, here we go!!!

we look, act, and talk like our old selves, but we’ve been damaged, each and every one of us. we’re scarred inside. like rosebuds with canker-worms at their hearts. we look the same, but even if we live, we’ll never blossom. and there is nothing that will change that. nothing at all.
