[read in french] this was probably what i needed to read at the moment. so it was enjoyable to me. 

The translation sounded a bit off to me sometimes so I'm curious about reading some parts in Japanese. 

Being a high context language, there's a vibe that you can't find in low context languages that I love, too.

There's basically no plot but the atmosphere was good, to me. Some parts were really moving, too.

Also, this isn't I'll intentioned I believe but older japanese works tend to have an odd way of talking about trans identity....
