Kawasumi Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Not entirely. But stuff written by Mareni or Masada has some pretty ancient writing in it as far as I have heard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolverk Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Not sure about any vns that actually have been written in 古文, there area few that contain some of it though as Kawasumi said. Curious btw. What books/sites/material will you use to study 古文? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bolverk Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Imabi has some on it yeah. Seems like a good place to start. Afterwards you should prbly find some jp written textbooks on it. No idea how much interest you have in literature. But reading the old classics in original is good practice I imagine. I haven't had much interest for 古文 so far. So haven't looked any into it honestly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zalor Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 I'm pretty sure that the only reason to learn 古文 these days are if you plan to read older Japanese literature in the original. Unless you are either really anal about translations (to the extent that you don't even trust modern japanese translations of older japanese) or if you are getting a graduate degree in Japanese literature, then I see no real reason to learn 古 文. So I am curious what your incentives are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chronopolis Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 It pops up sparingly in some VN's, but never significant parts of a VN. A few passages from Muramasa. Including the 'noh play'. Dies Irae definitely features some, and Kajiri Kamui Kagura definitely contains a bunch. Kikan Bakumatsu has a bit (phrases, idioms). Subahibi has some, because it quotes shit. It's more like it shows up uncommonly in phrases/idioms or artistic exposition (that's why I want to learn the basics). I'd doubt anyone would write a VN in it because it'd be a pain in the ass for most Japanese people to read. Bolverk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
