*IS: Is Hachiman saying the Dead Sea Scrolls are terrible or just the bundle of paper? First I'll assume the answers Yes. If he was referencing the Dead Sea Scrolls from Neon Genesis Evangelion, is he implying that Zaimokuza's paper is terrible because of the Scrolls mysterious and apocalyptic nature. If so perhaps "enigmatic" and its synonyms or "dangerous/apocalyptic" and its synonyms would be a better way of describing the thing. If he's referencing the biblical dead sea scrolls, is he saying that his paper looks ancient hence terrible? If so then perhaps "ancient" and its synonyms or "enigmatic" and its synonyms would be a better adjective to describe the "thing".
