The poem translations of MYS 3245 and 3246 are okay, they more or less hit all the right spots. Here's the Keene edition from 1940 (Nippon Gakujutsu Shinkōkai /Columbia Press):

[3245 chouka]
O that the bridge to heaven were longer,
And the lofty mountain loftier!
Then I would fetch and offer to him
The magical elixir
Which the Moon God treasures,
And give him back the ardour of his youth.

[3246 tanka]
How grievous it is to see
Old age upon him stealing day by day,
--On him, whom I cherish
As the moon and the sun of heaven.

 

[Tamerlane]

That "infinite mirrors" thing reminded me of this XKCD comic

 

[Doomroar]

The author of Torako always delivers with the thiccness, which is distracting me too much from the horror.

 

[dumbw0ay]

This guy keep saying he's older than he seems, maybe he is under a curse that makes him young too

[Ranzo]

The idea of being a 28 year old virgin is the true horror

 

[Kcjpunk]

@Ranzo what wrong with that ? I'm 26 and a virgin and one my friend is 30 or 31 and still a virgin

 

[kwendy]

If it was other kind of manga they would've just broken fourth condition.

 

[NuttBucket]
