Like, why wouldn't people be interested in knowing that the African slave trade of the colonial period actually started with Jewish kids, but they all died in the African climate of Sao Tome, so the Portuguese started buying slaves from the Congolese, which they captured from neighboring tribes, to work the fields??
I always feel like I'm boring when I'm hanging out with my friends and family, because my interests aren't interesting to anyone else. I can talk about From The New World for hours. Ask me about how to build an SSTO in Kerbal Space Program. Wanna talk about astronomy? I could show you how to pick a lock! How about a Rubik's Cube? Wanna play D&D? I can help you pick a class, and walk you through what each one can do! Do you wanna see one of the things I've programmed Tasker to do? Are you sure? That Subnautica GPS is my greatest achievement in life!
Uhhh... Yeah, ok, let's talk about that country song everyone's obsessed with I guess
From the New World is a sleeper anime that impacted me on a profoundly deep level, and no one. ever. talks. about it. The beautifully alien way it examines the human condition is entrancing. It's commentary is so wide spread yet maintains depth and respect for the subject matter at the same time. The fact that the original novel never got translated may one day drive me to learn Japanese. You're right, it's the world who's wrong
There is a completed fan translation. https://cadetnine.wordpress.com/
You're a true hero! I never even thought to check for 3rd party translations. But seriously, thank you for the link, it made my day
