I loved this book and I have no idea why

There’s literally no plot but I wouldn’t even call it a character book bc the characters don’t really have any strong development or journey, theres hints of some but nothing significant. Nothing is explained or makes any sense??

Yet I loved it. felt like a slice of life novel just about talking to people in one night and learning about each other in a very tender and endearing way. 

although I felt like the women in this book weren’t overly sexualized like criticisms of his other work, there was a minor plot line of a beaten up sex worker that could have been handled better imo

The writing was atmospheric and magical. I could imagine the early hours of Tokyo and these different people's lives interconnecting. My favorite stories to follow were of Mari's and Takahashi. I didn't like the corporate worker and was a little bored with Eri's. The ending left me hanging, but in a good way.
