Shortly after his birth, his family moved to Sukawa, Nishimiya City, Hyogo Prefecture. "I was born and raised in Kansai, my father is the son of a monk in Kyoto, and my mother is the daughter of a shipyard businessman. It can be said to be 100% Kansai species. Nature speaks Kansai dialect every day. The education received has a strong localism, dialects outside Kansai are heretical, and no one who uses "standard language" is authentic. This is a world where baseball pitchers belong to villages and mountains, food is light, universities are expensive, and eels are cooked. " ("the counterattack of Murakami Asahi Hall")

For this reason, my reading scope is still limited to foreign literature. Maybe it can be said that at the age of three, you look at the old at the age of seven.

In English, I am confident in English reading itself, because I have dabbled in English paperbacks in my own way since high school. But I didn't learn English well because I didn't pay attention to those technical little things. The grades in my memory are just above average. If the English teacher at that time knew that I was engaged in so many English translations now, it would be puzzling. World history is good at social science. Why? Because when I was in junior high school, I had read the complete works of World History by Yang Gong Lun Society for ten or twenty times.
