【About This Series】
Blending reality with fiction, this series chronicles a transcontinental adventure drifting through the twilight zone of light and shadow lurking across the 1980s United States.
What makes these stories truly distinctive is my (Hiro Naooka's ) original narrative craftsmanship, which applies the structural framework of "Rakugo"-the traditional Japanese art of comedic storytelling. Just like a classic Rakugo performance, every single story is meticulously built to guide you toward a unique and clever "Ochi" (the final twist or punchline).
I will bring you a new story every week, starting with these four tales:
"The Haunted Mansion" - centering around a notorious hotel in New Orleans swirling with ghosts and jazz.
"Welcome to the States" - set in San Francisco's historic Haight-Ashbury.
"The Peaceful Subway" - capturing the tense, gritty platforms of the New York City subway.
"Black Joke" - an incident at a campsite nestled in a nature park on the outskirts of Cleveland.
Step into the nostalgic, vivid landscape of 1980s America, where an unforgettable ending awaits you in every tale.
