    This just radiates “Made-up murder mystery game you play with your sibling” as kids and it’s so refreshing! Feels so fun and authentic. If this is a series you will be getting into more, I’d love to see it! It’s a great way to open up a murder mystery novel. 😄

    Cool to see a different mystery writer being tackled. With Agatha Christie, it's obvious Poirot was always secretly the murderer and his true skill was finding mentally unstable people to take the blame. "Oh no I just happened to be right beside my 42nd murder this year, I must eh...solve it"

And may I just say, thank you so much for this amazing episode 😊 & for taking on solving this novel as it was an enjoyably unpredictable read 🙏💙

  • @hunterghobadi1269

    Oh wow! This is my favorite mystery series of all time. Mill House is better than the Decagon House IMO but both are worth reading. Alas, the next translation in in the riddle house books (The Labyrinth House Murders) isn't coming out until October 10th. Mill House came out in May of 2023 so that is a 17 month (!!) gap between books.
    So they finished Decagon House in 2015, and only then decided to continue once it sold well. But there are 9 murder house books (homes all built by the same mysterious Nakamura Seiji). Two books are finished leaving 7 more books, or in other words 7 more translations.
    I get translating is hard, but seeing as all these houses are connected I've been theorizing that all the mysteries are somehow related. But to get there we are averaging a 17 month wait per book (one year and five months). 17x7 is 119 months until the final book or just under 12 years. Meaning it will be over a decade until we get answers :(
    Anyways, good job. Yukito Ayatsuji (the author of this series) was the founder of Honkaku mystery novels in Japan and I think is by far the best. What makes these books so much for the format your using is that its all about the puzzle, not the characters or emotions. And the whole promise is that the reader should be able to solve the mystery before the end. And they supposedly get more clever each time, but again, 12 years. I don't know, but I have no one to talk to this stuff about so watching this video was really fun. So thanks for making it.
    edit: If you liked this style of solvable mysteries based on clues (not characters/drama) Soji Shimada is a disciple of Yukito Ayatsuji and his book "The Tokyo Zodiac Murders" is notorious for being clever. Though I feel Ayatsuji is the best of the best so if you want more just read Decagon House. As for Mill House....
    SPOILERS:
    Fujinuma speaking in first person is what threw my suspicion off of him since he was struggling with a mystery (the note and the whereabouts of the real Fujinuma), just not the same mystery we were trying to solve.

    I found your video a couple of days ago, found it interesting and decided to read the book before watching. Now I'm back))
    SPOILER:
    .
    .
    .
    .
    .
    1) So great you worked out that Masaki is the murderer! Almost right from the start!
    2) The thing that was the most suspicios to me from the very beginning is the style of telling the story in the past and in the present. From "I" and "He", it must have been done on purpose. So the idea of another man hiding behind the mask came to me. It's seems easy when you're wearing mask and gloves and move in the wheelchair.
    What's more, Shimada asked the main guy twice "are you Mr. Fujinuma?" and twice the guy answered sth irrelevant but didn't give the exact answer.
    As for me, the author was too honest with a reader in this part, I'd rather he let Masaki lie. That'd be more interesting. Cause he's a muderer pretending to be another man for a year, it's not a problem for him to lie.
    3) Masaki's only finger left to imitate he was murdered and the same plot in Harry Potter series... hm)
    4) I've studied the plan of the ground floor lots of times and have only one question: how do people get into the courtyard? There are no doors!
    Thank you for the video, it was really nice to watch!) Hope to see other honkaky misteries solved by your detective duo.
