A little Googling shows I'm far from the first person to be reminded by this walled town of Murakami's Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World; ABe is supposed to have confirmed it in an Animerica interview, but I haven't seen it quoted anywhere.
Given that the End of the World turns out to be a kind of perpetual lucid dream (not very accurate but it'll do), that might offer some interesting interpretative possibilities for Haibane Renmei. (I take 'afterlife' to be the obvious interpretative background.)
Has anyone else here read the book, anyway?
