When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.

let's see what Magic Man has to offer:
Yeah, I love Akutagawa too, especially Hell Screen. I think the two are fairly different both in style and content, however. I think Akutagawa tends to favor minimalism in his language a lot, and most of his focus is given to the psychology of his characters rather than the places they inhabit. Kyoka's writing is more similar to Blake or Keats, he places a lot of focus on natural scenes using extremely vivid and flowery prose. Kyoka also usually doesn't place too much emphasis on character development as he basically rewrites the same characters for all of his stories. What he felt was most important was the language itself rather than world building. A writer you might try if you like Akutagawa is Naoya Shiga, his stories also employed very minimalist and sharp language on issues of the human condition. He was also a contemporary of Akutagawa and also one of his favorite writers. He differs from Akutagawa in that most of his work is taken from his own personal experiences (Shiga is credited as one of the pioneers of the "I-Novel" style in Japan) but it's still very interesting stuff. At Kinosaki is probably my favorite story of his, it's about a man who travels to the countryside for reasons of his health and ponders death as it's presented to him in nature. Han's Crime is also good, I think it's very similar to Akutagawa's In a Bamboo Grove both in style and content.
ok I could go for more of this kind of thing
