(W) NISIOISIN
The debut work from NISIOISIN, Kubikiri Cycle is NISIO's twist on the I-novel where his narrator reveals a mystery and tries desperately to not take part in what transpires over the work. Full of intriguing young characters and action filled drama, Kubikiri Cycle is the basis for the modern light novel movement creating a new genre of literature for Japan's X generation and beyond.
A narrator whose name is never mentioned encounters a series of mysteries. Said narrator tends to try in vain to keep out of the story, but instead of being the bystander he wants to be, he always gets dragged into the center of everything. Though it seems the narrator does a lot in the story, he always finds out at the end that whatever he did was meaningless.
