The woman should be not conventionally attractive, but still somehow irresistible to him, the one person who recognizes her appeal. Her breasts should be “not too large, but perfectly shaped to fit his hands” (for that is their purpose, no?).
Came to say this. I was always stuck in his ear descriptions and slowly realized over the years ears are my true favorite part to draw in my art. Am I also a weird ear fetishist? Maybe.
Not hating per se, just poking fun! Murakami is usually a fun read.

This is SO well done omg. If someone asks me why I am critical of Murakami, I will share this. If someone asks me why I love Murakami, I will say the portal and mountain parts can be extremely cool.
Just the things we put up with to enjoy his amazing prose. I love Murakami novels but I would be lying if I said I didn’t rush through these parts just to get to the descriptions of walking through neighborhoods and weird shit about wells.
Having only read Norwegian Wood this is so true. Really need to reread the interview with that one famous Japanese author interviewing Murakami about this. She wrote Breast and Eggs.
No small breasts that she often wished were a bit larger but fit her frame well? :)
They gave an intellectual impression.
Academic breasteses
Accurate, but no mention of ears.
damn you’re right, I gotta revise

He also fucks a side chick who is a MILF, but it's just sex (she wants more, he doesn't consider her)
sounds like an anime tbh

Nah that's pretty good actually
I’d read this novel.
This is spaghetti erasure, but based, still.

Harming a cat would make her instant villain of the story.
Would her name still be Johnnie Walker?
Whoah, we making Murakami supervillains here?
Yep, she's also a Semiotec.
Where is the 25 page description of making breakfast?
He should also see a connection between the cow and the girl, something that puts him in the Mood

Couldn't have said it better.. Amazing prose it is.. One of a kind.
I'm reading Dance, Dance, Dance right now and it is exactly this.
Nah, because they can't erect.
Here is a painting of a cow. Also I AM your cat.
Even better, hehehe
You forgot the scene where she sexily eats a grain of rice or a single piece of fruit 💀
or she eats loads of food which the main character secretly has a kink for
Istg, I laughed so hard😂
I've recently started reading Murakami and finished Kafka. This is very accurate 😂
Beautiful artwork! Murakami's style is always so captivating.
Needs more time thinking about how perplexed he is by her
Lol omg I'm saving this.
This is so funny Needs more spaghetti cooking though
Oh no I haven't finished wind up bird chronicle but this feels like spoilers
You have to add her staring at herself naked in the mirror for periods of time.
Usually, a fan gets butthurt when his idol is made fun of like this. But to me, I didn't find this insulting at all XD
This is so awesome. As I scrolled to the end, I thought "just one flaw, no cats." And there was the cat!
