I'm not the world's most fantastic translator, so if you have the original and have any suggestions for improvement, let me know. I've translated lots of stuff before, but never a novel, so I thought I'd just try my hand at it also this will hopefully be good practice for the Kentei exam I'm planning on taking in December. So, I've decided to start translating the book. It's not surprising that the book never made it over here as it's a niche title even in Japan, and -it needs to be said- somewhat trashy fiction.
However, I noticed there's not a lot of information about the original book in English almost all the information is on the series of video games.
(Which is also the title of the first book) I've always liked that series and was glad to get a chance to read where the whole thing spawned from. It's a horror-scifi book written in the 1980s that has a cult following, and spawned one of the largest Japanese RPG series around, Megami Tensei.
Recently I got a hold of the original Digital Devil Story trilogy by Nishitani Aya.
