I've pretty much exhausted Kobo Abe and Mishima and want some more great japanese lit. What are your recommendations Veeky Forums? I see Dazai posted a lot around here but am I right in thinking No Longer Human is somewhat grouped with existentialist novels?

I've also heard Lafcadio Hearns books on Japan are quite good so check those out.

Edogawa Ranpo is pretty fun and easy to read.

I've been reading some Kawabata stories in Japanese for a uni course and he's pretty great. Akutagawa is also, of course, a master of short stories. As far as novels go I will never stop shilling Tanizaki.
