Tanbi as a burgeoning literary form is not so popular until the 21st century with the development of China's network industry. It originates from Japan. Initially the genre of Tanbism was the same as Aestheticism. With the development of society, the writer of this kind of literature make some compromises and changes, and then it comes out this new literary form Tanbi literature as is known today.It is first an elite literature when Aetheticism first came to Japan. But as historical and social reasons, it gradually took on some morbid cast.
