This format was inspired by "Otaku: Japan's Database Animals" by Hiroki Azuma,"The Death of a Moth" by Virginia Woolf andObsidian Notes.

What consumers truly value and buy are the settings and the worldviews themselves as works. Therefore, a dual strategy is effected: although the actual commodities are grand narratives, it happens to be small narratives, which are fragments of grand narratives, that are sold as surrogate products. - Hiroki Azuma

The success of the masterpieces seems to lie not so much in their freedom from faults — indeed we tolerate the grossest errors in them all — but in the immense persuasiveness of a mind which has completely mastered its perspective. - Virginia Woolf
