After being continuously exposed to them on Nijiura, I felt I finally had to make the effort to translate some of bkub's somewhat incomprehensible comics.

They're all from http://blog.livedoor.jp/bkub/. They're also not exactly easy to get, and I'm limiting myself to translating the ones I actually understand. However, if you do get them, they're pretty hilarious.

First off, a Lucky Star strip featuring Tsukasa's catchphrase "dondake~". I'm using the translation Strato used in the a.f.k. subs for this.

Next, another Lucky Star strip. This one's a real repost classic.

For those who don't know, a Guntank is a machine from the original Gundam. It's supposed to look something like this: http://images.google.com/images?q=guntank

A wise man once said that a good comic does not have just one joke in the last panel, it has a joke in every panel. This comic lives up to that ideal pretty well.

Next, a Rozen comic. It is no secret that I am a sucker for Suigintou.

Finally, another Rozen comic, celebrating the restart of the manga!

I might do some more of these given some spare time and the ability to actually comprehend some more strips. I'm sort of itching to do his original manga 3LDKM (http://comoco8109.web.fc2.com/3ldkm1.html), but I'd really need some more time before I can do that.

But feel free to make requests!

Now, I never really got into the whole Touhou thing, so usually I don't do those comics, but I finally had to admit I just love bkub's depictions of the Touhou girls too much to leave these strips alone.

Maybe one of you Touhou people out there can tell me why Chen's using the Chinese reading of her name and not the Japanese?

Or is just one of ZUN's mysteries?

Because "daidai" doesn't sound as moe as "chen".

Hahah, thanks a bunch for these. I love the surreal humor, and the meta-edits just make it more absurd.

There's wikis in both English and Japanese for Touhou if you're ever curious about character details, but I leave that up to you.

Also, honk honk.

Chen's name uses the chinese reading because it means "bitter orange." It's a very loose pun, since all of the Yakumo family's names can be read as colors of visible light.(Yukari=Violet, Ran=Indigo, Chen=Orange) It's also sort of like a hierarchy.

Well, yes, but that doesn't actually explain why her name is read in Chinese.

After >>3869, bkub vowed to draw a cute Marisa.

The resulting strip was so cute, he had to turn his blog pink and add a bunch of sparkling hearts.

I think that's part of the joke. Cirno's an idiot, ZUN said it himself (the ⑨ you see accociated with her is because she was pointed out in a instruction manual picture as "baka" with it)

ZUN likes to include characters from various locations/cultures (scarlet sisters from France, Alice from Romania, etc). Chen seems to be Chinese in origin, from details like her name and theme song (named "Diao ye zong"). Her dress also seems to have a very Chinese feel to it.
