Okay. When you said child of Peter Wimsey and Crawford of Lymond, I thought you meant literally, and somebody out there was actually publishing, by name, the crazypants crossover id-vortex of all time.
...I guess I should not be surprised that it turns out to be a manga (anime?) series, but I am a little disappointed that I don't get to see the various hard-headed characters of fandom (always sidekicks, have you noticed?) line up to bop Crawford of Lymond on the head. Or to offer him modern cotton pants; I imagine he'd find them a relief after all that itchy.
I sadly have no other comment on your point, except to be glad there's a name for the weirdness of Are You My Mother?. I've never seen another children's book like it.
