Yatsude – Country of a Thousand Nights and Ten Billion Mornings

Posted on September 12th, 2014 by Hitstun

That’s my best guess on the translation of the actual title “Sen no Yoru to Hyaku Oku no Asa no Kuni”. Anyway, this is my new desktop wallpaper, and it really is shockingly good. It’s the kind of fantasy town I want to live in, but it’s almost realistic, too. I highly recommend logging into […]
