i was  skeptical going into the book because the last book i read translated from japanese didn’t resonate with me as much because of the writing but i believe in this one i actually enjoyed it, it fit the story somehow.
i liked the complex thoughts regarding death and accepting you are going to die and even though, i’m not a religious person myself, i found the devil as character and symbol perfect for this story. i honestly don’t have more thoughts about the book, it’s a story i might actually think about for a little while but it didn’t feel too heavy and was simple enough to read it one day

Questo libro è meraviglioso e l’ho finito in un sospiro. La storia e il protagonista sono riusciti a tenermi appiccicat* al libro, non l’ho messo giù un minuto.
È molto emozionante e fa riflettere parecchio su tanti aspetti della vita… e soprattutto della morte. Ho trovato il tono molto malinconico, ma ci sono anche stati momenti divertenti.
Lo consiglio vivamente a tutt*

Extremely sad and full of hope and beauty, I cried for hours straight and I smiled at the end. 
Definitely worth every second I spent reading this masterpiece.

I don't think this book will stay with me for longer but it was a quick and quite interesting read. Some nice reflections about the world however they were neither something new, nor complex
