Refreshing! Yeah, Endo's stuff is great, but unfortunately I read most of his stuff when I was little; so alot what would be both fascinating and confusing. What makes manga so great though, is the fact that you can read it anytime and depending on the time, age, mood, circumstances, etc... it can give a totally different impression! So with that said, I'll be picking up on Endo again. Also, I'd like to recommend a mangaka: Asano Inio; he's an and coming guy but alot of his stuff is very contemporary much like Endo in his time. Asano has a diverse resume, but if you want a darker psychological work you'd like Nijigahara Holograph... which is a ambitious, whopping 300 page book that requires reading through a couple times...literally! ooooo

I'm definitely going to check out this Endo guy. If he can inspire anyone to write so honestly about their insecurities then he must be worth his weight in gold very interesting post.

We try to find meaning in our life's journey, and although we are unsure as to what shall or will happen, we still struggle and remain human. Your description of Endo reminds me of Camus, as he was an existentialist. As to whether this holds water or not, I shall know soon. :) I’ve noticed (from For Those of Us Who Don’t Believe in God) that Endo deals with the existential drama of mankind.
