Kuro Rekishi: Part 1

The "RPG Maker" series that allow you to create RPGs have been on a massive sale on Steam, so I bought the whole set.

Then, I suddenly remembered games I made with "RPG Maker" over 20 years ago and found my ancient website where I had introduced the games.

I was not only surprised that the website was still accessible, but I was also chilled by its embarrassing content.

To describe such one's embarrassing past that they wish to erase, you can use the slang term, kuro rekishi (黒歴史).

Since kuro (黒) means "dark," rekishi (歴史) means "history," the literal meaning of kuro rekishi is "dark history."
黒歴史 Part 1

RPGを作ることができるゲーム「RPGツクール」シリーズが Steam で大規模セールをしていたので、一通り買ってしまいました。

そしてふと、「RPGツクール」で20年以上前に作ったゲームのことを思い出し、インターネットで検索してみると、作ったゲームを紹介する自身のWebページがヒットしました。

まだWebページが残っていたことにも驚きましたが、その内容の痛々しさにも驚愕しました。

このように、恥ずかしくてなかったことにしたい自分の過去のことを、俗に「黒歴史」と呼ぶことがあります。

「黒」は "black"、「歴史」は "history" を意味するので、「黒歴史」の文字どおりの意味は "black history" となります。
