OMG. Me want. That's just the sort of thing I'm into (twisted fairy tales). Besides, the original Brothers Grimm stories are tons more gruesome, so these twisted ones seem to be more to the original spirit!

Yeah, I love Brothers Grimm minus the sugary version fed to us during childhood.

If you can read Japanese it's best to get the books at Kino. I wonder if they've got English translation ones..

I'm going to do some shopping at Kino soon.

Not to mention that the original Grimm's Fairy Tales in German were actually extremely violent. Not too much on the sex, if I remember right, but there's some of that in there too.

I wish I can read German.. It's on my list of languages to be attempted, but I haven't gotten very far beyond "Guten Tag" and "Sprechen Sie Englisch?" :P

Maybe you should work on English first.

Children themselves are partial to violence and blood. That does not mean they are less compassionate. They just don't know how to sugarcoat the truth.

For your information, the absolutely original stories from the Brothers Grimm were filled with sex and violence (before they got censored by everyone who wanted to bring them to children). For example, Snow White died with a piece of the poisoned apple stuck in her throat. The Prince bought Snow White's coffin because he was a necrophiliac and wanted to have sex with her corpse. He fucked her so hard that he dislodged the apple and that's how she came back to life.

If you don't believe me, buy a copy of the truly uncensored Brothers Grimm stories. I think even the children of our age are unsatisfied with the expurgated versions that don't even make logical sense sometimes.
