I try to contribute, but without even understanding the language, it is kind of a useless effort...

lol cluelessness :(

「くんくん(KUNKUN)」is this dog's name.

age for translation?

I'm actually working on something related, so I might work on this one when I finish the other project.

Bumped for remindering purposes and such.

reminder?

forgotten?

Yes! Maybe I'll have a look at it again, even though that other project I mentioned earlier has totally stalled.

2nd

3rd and last (of what I have)

I recommend "Mushishi," too. Beautiful artwork and a quirky storyline incorporating various Japanese ghost stories and such.

Actually, it incorporates no ghost stories, just stuff that vaguely resembles them in style. The whole thing is pretty much made up by the author, as far as I know.

bump. Hope that someone can translate this.
Mushishi is a great show indeed.

bumb for great mushishi goodness...

Sigh...

What is this, a Peer Gynt reference?

I'm not sure I understand what the author of the manga means to say.

this is completely awesome!

I love this
Anonomous thanks you!!

It's pretty hilarious, but I am just a little bit too lazy to work throught it and translate it.

It's basically "Hey! FOREIGNERS like ANIME PORN too! But they call it HENTAI!"

Also, it says, "Hey! You can download hentai things from a lot of foreign sites. Here we go!"

But probably, the article is nothing new to those who already use the internet for porn.

The caricatures are priceless. The black dude looks like Mao Tse Tung's african love child.

I didn't know Brock Samson was into this sort of thing.

There seemed to be a bit of intrest in this so,

I'm not sure he really means to give her 100200 handkerchiefs, either.

Ok, snarkiness aside, it's not too bad. Whispers is right that her editing is better in general, and some lines are a bit awkward, but overall it's decent.

I expected you people to be a lot more disappointed. ; )

I haven't read the original Japanese edition or any other English translation. But, I'm sure Emma said "ハンカチを一枚" in the first page.

As you may already know, Japanese language doesn't have definite/indefinite articles such as "a, an, the". So if she said 一枚, she clarly indicated the number.

As for that "100, 200", I guess William said "100枚でも200枚でも", didn't he? If so, でも means the numbers are just an example or supposition. What William meant is "even though it is 100 or 200, that is fine."

In my opinion, William's answer is something like:
"A handkerchief? Fine! But Only one? I'll get you 100 or 200 if you wish."

The editor didn't have to emphasize the word "handkerchief" because William didn't care the handkerchief. He did care the price. He just wanted to impress it on her that he would buy anything, and really wanted to give her a more expensive present.

There is a comma between the 100 and 200, isn't there?

But that comma could seem to be just a pose inserted for readability between the third and the fourth digit of 100200.

Exactly. It's not wrong to write like that, but it's also not something you should do, because it is ambiguous.

CMX has inherited random bolding from their parent company, I see.

In the hands of a good author, with a good editor, bolding can work well and not be intrusive in American comics. Trying to jam it in to translated manga doesn't seem like a capital idea, though.

Actually, I rather like bolding. Not so much reading; but when writing it gives me security that there's less of a chance if mis-interpretation.
Mind you, given that the typesetter started randomly bolding one portion, and left the rest alone makes me think he/she didn't know what they were doing. The only usage of it I agree with is the handkerchief statement.

true that. :\

these are a great way to explain this.. nice work!

Now why can't all history lessons be like this?

>>2369
Art isn't a required course to get a history degree?

where did you find these?

If only all history texts could be in this format...

Although, after a while the constant sound-effects explanations kinda get on my nerves.

Yes, sound effect explanations are just about the worst way to handle sound effects. Either edit all of them, some of them, or none of them. Don't go around writing little comments about them - this only breaks up the flow of the page, and distracts the reader.

I'm going to link this because people should be able to learn how totally sweet Türkmenbaşhi is without having to type things.

translation thingy http://wakaba.c3.cx/notes/notes.pl?image=http://cerealandmilk.net/iichan/img/src/1141415400708%2ejpg

first translation was so obvious, and also made my me

what someone else already did

Wow, that's some shitty editing.

I don't mind if my translation is not used.
But, at least, the digital editing should be refined. It looks awful.

Emma Bangai-hen! First side story?

>>2601
When does that start?

>>2602
(#-_-)You see how it says "September" in the lower right corner?

>>2605
Oh, true.

Which means it is the current issue. Which is why there are scns of the cover. It's starting right now.

>>2607
Yay. So what was the Kelly Stowner story about?
