Yamaguchirow omake (Setsuen)

"Cohabitation Age" (Kuusou), done(?)
May. 15th, 2006 06:10 pmStasy has succeeded in talking me into this :) though this may go a bit slowly as I continue catching up on various RL stuff at the same time. (Mostly writing up eBay listings. I have ridiculous quantities of beadage piling up and waiting to be flogged off.) On the other hand, my copy is printed in a beautifully clear font that makes it much easier to identify random kanji.
This is the most recent Yamaguchirow doujinshi I own; almost all of it is a single long Kenshin/Kaoru story in a modern setting. The front cover shows both of them sprawled out in front of six kanji, blocking most of them except for the first two ("Kuusou": fantasy/imagination), but the entire set can be recognized from the line that's printed in the preface pages, between Kenshin and Kaoru standing rather awkwardly in their modern clothes. (Kenshin has a sword in this drawing, as well as on the front cover. I don't think it appears anywhere in the actual story, though?)
So the entire title appears to be "Kuusou Ken x Kaoru Gendai"-- the middle two kanji are the same ones in their usual names; "gendai" means "modern". I was worrying before that those were supposed to be their alternate modern names, in which case I would've had practically no chance of deriving the correct pronunciations, but luckily they seem to be stock phrases so I won't have to wade through ten zillion possible nanori (specialized name readings for kanji). I don't see any numbers on the pages, so I'm just going to say that the actual story runs from pp 1-20.( Read more... )
