Hi there,
My public name is Kenji Mouri, or 毛利 研二 in Japanese. In China, due to my public name, my friends call me 毛利, or Mouri in English. In some cases, my friends also call me Kuriko Mou, or 毛 栗子 in Japanese.
MouriNaruto, Mouri_Naruto and Mouri are my typical usernames.
I am passionate about developing highly efficient software implementations with minimal syntax and reliance on third-party libraries, and love creating open-source projects and sometimes making contributions for other's. I am also a Microsoft MVP and a PCBeta moderator. Here is my blog, resume, projects, speeches and documentations. If you want to sponsor me, please read Become a sponsor to Kenji Mouri. Also, I have provided paid services.
Due to many people have asked me why not update a specific project frequently. I think I should provide you the list of things I currently working on will be the best explanation. This list will be sorted in priority order.
Here are the things I want to have progress in 2026. The archive is available if you want to read the history of this list.

I had made a implementation at https://github.com/SherryPlatform/HvGin. But there are some stability issues which need to fix. So, I tried to rewrite this with C++ and create a new project at https://github.com/SherryPlatform/RelayLab.

Current, I have released NanaZip 6.0 Preview 1. Starting with NanaZip 6.0, the NanaZip project is governed by multiple Benevolent Dictators For Life who make final decisions by reaching an agreement offline.
Many things happened, but still something I need still to push.
I find it's necessary to synchronize GUI part to the latest 7-Zip mainline to reduce the security issues.
I hope I can add the support for extracting compressed files from the .NET Single File Application bundles, but I need to finish the decoder and encoder interfaces definitions in the modernized 7-Zip Plugin SDK which made by me.
I also hope I can finish the littlefs parser by myself because I want to have a lightweight readonly implementation which I can try to use that in MBR for happiness on the retro 16-Bit x86 platform.
Also, I think we should use more algorithm implementations from Windows APIs, which is "As Microsoft As Possible" a.k.a. AMAP strategy which mentioned by me.
AMAP strategy can help me to reduce the attack surface and the binary size.

It's an ambitious plan. According with one of my previous professors suggestion. I think I should write a demo like minimal Hyper-V UEFI guest with Hyper-V hypercalls and VMBus devices support.
Status: Working In Progress
I found I'm more suitable to write documentation style articles managed via Git.
I need to make a website generator for my documents first.

I decided to write a technical book about the Hyper-V guest interfaces.
I plan to write the book in English. But I need to continue to maintain and create related open-source projects as the examples mentioned in the book.
But I think that topic is also suitable to write a science fiction isekai light novel in Japanese.

I think I need to make an immersive Wayland compositor for X11 which can help resource-constraint devices. I think it's good to call that WayRT to play puns of WinRT, lol.
