If you’re learning Japanese, or if you’re already pera-pera in it, and looking for reading materials, then
bbs.bookstudio.com
is the perfect site for you!
Well, the URL used to be that, but one day the server hard disk crashed. It was down for so long that I had given up my hopes. But now it’s back up again with a brand new URL!!! Ladies and gentlemen, please visit:
(accessing the old URL will bring you to the new one)
So now let’s talk what the site is about…
First of all, I don’t think the site has a name… The big banner on top says “shousetsu & manga toukou-ya” which means “the place to submit stories and comics” but I think that’s more of a description than a name. But who says you need to have a name to be useful?
Well the description sums it all. You can read such diverse genre of novels from SF (sci-fi), douwa (fairy tales) to BL (figure that out on your own). And of course the stories are free! Because the site is just back up, things are filling up from the beginning again. However there are already more than a hundred of stories there.
I’m far from pera-pera, but I’m peko-peko with Japanese. For me, this site is just perfect!
