Watching strange stories from a strange studio really needs a good choice. I recommend five full versions of the original works that are popular in the market now:
The book Strange Tales from a Lonely Studio, edited by Zhu and published by People's Literature Publishing House, has simplified characters, horizontal arrangement, four volumes with purple cover and three volumes with light yellow cover. This is the most popular version today, and it is cheap and easy to read. Many castrated or fake versions of Strange Tales from a Lonely Studio on the market are actually pirated versions of this version.

This publishing house has published many editions, most of which are four volumes.
