In related news, I had purchased both volumes of 此花亭奇譚 several months ago and finally read them recently. They definitely gave that Aria vibe that I was hoping for, and the main character in particular reminds me of Akari. For some reason there’s a a fair amount of nudity, so avoid if that’s problematic for you. Other than that, it’s wholesome and has the 摩訶不思議 moments we all truly desire. It even switched publishers and titles after two volumes just like Aqua/Aria, but the “sequel” series (called このはな綺譚) has 10 volumes and is still publishing.

I’m conflicted now. On the one hand, not a fan of nudity. On the other hand, I crave.
I’ll check the preview today and see if I can deal with it.

Meanwhile, the Japanese Harry Potter and the Philisopher’s Stone has the word 摩訶不思議 in the very first paragraph.

Those are not the 摩訶不思議s you are looking for.

Well, it certainly wasn’t the 摩訶不思議 that ダーズリー夫婦 were looking for.
