A.k.a. that book with a dude kicking a chick on the beach.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Konjiki Yasha (金色夜叉), best known in the English-speaking world as The Golden Demon, is a romance novel by Kōyō Ozaki serially published on Yomiuri Shimbun newspaper from January 1, 1897 until May 11, 1902 when it was Cut Short when the author Died During Production in 1903. It tells the story of diligent orphan student Kan'ichi Hazama set to marry the beautiful Dude Magnet Miya Shigisawa, whose family is generous enough to let him live under their roof. The affection is mutual, though Miya also harbors a desire to marry someone well-off… then along comes Tadatsugu Tomiyama, a wealthy banker's son with a penchant for unabashed wealth-flaunting, whose riches get Miya's parents to break off her betrothal with Kan'ichi so she can marry him instead. This leads to a tearful breakup where a heartbroken Kan'ichi decides to put an end to his squeaky-clean diligent student path and renounce his humanity. Fast-forward 4 years later, the novel follows the exploits of Kan'ichi, now a ruthless Loan Shark, and Miya, now Miyako Tomiyama, who leads a miserable marriage with an abusive and unfaithful Tadatsugu, and the two's reunion…Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })One of the poster boys of Meiji literature, it's remembered as a sobering cautionary tale about the dangers of pursuing money over love or human connection… or just the book with the dude kicking the chick. | |

All That Glitters: The story isn't called The Golden Demon for nothing; the whole point is to warn about the consequences of letting the pursuit of wealth trump human relationships. | |

Bastard Boyfriend: Kan'ichi can come off as an entitled "nice guy"; his girlfriend is kind of a Gold Digger and is on the verge of leaving him without telling him, but that hardly justifies ranting at her about how he's the only one who can make her happy and kicking her so hard she can't stand up, then running off to become a hardened criminal. Despite this, he still gets another hot girl all over him, and in the end gets back with the first girl. | |

Antiquated Linguistics | |
| The Golden Demon / int_e1721fd1 | comment |
Antiquated Linguistics: Featured heavily as part of Ozaki's writing style in general. The language used in the original text is highly archaic and poetic, to the point where there exist modern Japanese translations to help a modern reader base not unlike, say, The Tale of Genji. | |
