Hi there, I just came across "Future Pet Shop" and this had me laughing from the moment that sealed white box shows up on the doorstep. The premise sets up such a perfect comedic disaster, Shen Yibin, a wide-eyed new pet shop owner one day away from his grand opening, accidentally messaging the wrong supplier on WeChat and receiving not a batch of kittens but an actual live giant panda, unlocked cage and all, forcing him into a full-blown wrestling match with a Class I protected species in the middle of his own showroom. Watching his panic spiral from "I'm going to jail" to sheer bewilderment when the real "Future Pet Shop" casually reveals itself as a 22nd-century business run by someone from Doraemon's own era is such a perfect, escalating comedic hook. The dynamic between Shen Yibin and the panda he names Hah'Er is where the story really shines, a bear with the intelligence of a six-year-old who insists on washing its paws with three full pumps of soap and being fitted with a bib before eating, then pushes its own food toward Shen Yibin first out of pure unprompted politeness, turning what should be a farce about hiding a protected animal into something genuinely heartwarming. And the wonderfully mundane detail of Hah'Er's signature dish being twice-cooked pork instead of bamboo, justified only by "pandas are from Sichuan, isn't it normal," captures exactly the deadpan absurdist humor running through the whole premise. There's a lot I'd want to illustrate here: Shen Yibin locked in a full-body stalemate trying to shove the panda back into its cage, Hah'Er sitting properly at the coffee table in an oversized backwards apron waiting patiently for its ten containers of twice-cooked pork, or the tender, silly moment of Shen Yibin carefully washing the panda's paws in a basin decorated with, fittingly, a cartoon panda. I do manga style commission art, scene illustrations and character art, and stories with slice-of-life comedic chaos, absurdist magical-shop premises, and unexpectedly wholesome human-animal bonds are exactly the kind of stories I love bringing to life through illustration.

Another great absurdist fiction is 'Waiting for Godot' by Samuel Beckett. The play has two main characters, Estragon and Vladimir, who are waiting for someone named Godot who never arrives. It shows the futility and the absurdity of human existence as they keep waiting without any real purpose.

Absurdist fiction often features a sense of meaninglessness. For example, in 'Waiting for Godot', the two characters wait aimlessly, not really knowing what they are waiting for. There is also a breakdown of traditional narrative structures. In 'The Trial', the plot unfolds in a very disjointed way, with no clear logic to the legal proceedings. Characters may act in ways that seem illogical or detached from normal human behavior, like Meursault in 'The Stranger' who doesn't show the expected emotions at his mother's funeral.

Well, 'Slaughterhouse - Five' by Kurt Vonnegut is a top pick. It has a nonlinear narrative and elements of time travel mixed with the absurdity of war. The main character, Billy Pilgrim, experiences the bombing of Dresden in a very surreal way.

The little ancestor is three and a half years old, and the divine beast milk is fierce.

The ancient divine beast, Su Su, descended to the mortal world to experience the tribulation and became the youngest daughter of the Qin family's two elders who were nearly eighty years old. She was young but had a high seniority. Her nephews in their twenties had to call her aunt when they saw her. Su Su was also the only girl in the Qin family's third generation. Her parents doted on her, her brother doted on her, and her nephews fought to hug and protect her. Protect her? Su Su expressed that there was no need. She was a dignified divine beast, extremely brave and fierce! With her around, no one could bully the Qin family! Those who bullied her family would be beaten up, those who coveted her family's assets would be beaten up, and those who tried to kidnap her would be beaten up. The kidnapper who kidnapped Su Su was so frightened that he took the initiative to hand over his phone and beg her to call the police. "How do I turn on my phone?" Su Su asked. " You need a fingerprint to unlock it. Use my finger." the kidnapper explained. "Why are you using your fingers? Cut it down?" Su Su asked again. "No! You don't have to chop it, I can still use it!" The kidnapper wailed. Chop off his fingers! What was wrong with her brain? It was too terrifying! Ever since Su Su, who came with a good luck buff, came to the Qin family, the Qin family's luck had improved. Their business was booming, and the children who were originally disobedient had become more obedient. The whole family had become a team. What a lucky star.

Miss Bai's Sick Little Wolf Cub

[New book,'A Metaphysical Big Boss, She Slashes a Scum with a Single Slash' is being serialized ~] 1v1 Shuang Jie, brother and sister Bai Mo, a publicly recognized senior management talent of the headhunting company, stood out among the men on Wall Street. His methods were ruthless, and who wouldn't say that women were not inferior to men? But in her heart, she was just a lowly worker. She loved money and beautiful men. Her romantic stories were not inferior to her iron-blooded methods. There were not many people who were proud of their love life in the business world, but Bai Mo wanted to be proud for the rest of his life. Bai Mo thought that he would never get married in his life and would live this life heartlessly. However, he did not expect that a contract would force a little puppy to stick to it. Later on, after spending more time together, the little puppy revealed its sharp teeth. When it bit people, it really hurt. [Small Theater] Bai Mo walked into the office. Someone who was supposed to be reading documents was watching a movie. "Tang Jun, tell me, do you want to die?" "Sister, you're here. Come and watch my movie. I'm going to show off my abs!" Bai Mo patted his face and gave a fake smile."Young Master Tang, I really want to beat you to death." The man's face blushed and he said bashfully,"Sister, this isn't good, is it?" In the office." Bai Mo was speechless. It was another day of being angered by his thin-skinned face. However, this child's abdominal muscles were not pricked. [The beautiful and valiant working lady, Miss Bai; the white wolf cub, Young Master Tang.]
