江戶の大火と伝說の竜

The vivid descriptions made me curious about whether the author has a personal connection to Japan or if it was chosen purely for its mythical appeal.

The way the characters interacted with Japanese traditions felt meaningful without being didactic. I'm wondering if this was an intentional message.

The dragon felt charming and mischievous, but I wonder if the author drew inspiration from specific stories or myths about dragons in Asian culture.
