Yay…It’s done. I eeked this one out quickly, so I apologize for any mistakes. Link to the Ouran chp 78 Omake (Retired) Have fun, though it’s not the best Ouran omake out there…I like the Hani omake a lot better than this one. I tried to have fun with it though, so I went a little fast and loose with the twin’s grandmother’s dialogue. Next up, The latest Hana-Kimi omake! Continue reading Ouran Chp 78 Omake

Here’s “Orange Chocolate” chapter 5. Link to Orange Chocolate chapter 5 (update 3/1/2010 — Version 1: Translation correction on page 45 and minor edits from Kuma-chan) Chiro moves forward towards understanding herself more. For those of you interested in the dance mentioned in this chapter here are some links to some videos! These are video of “Fuji Musume” or “The Wisteria Maiden” starring Tamasaburo. I was really lucky to find this videos because they include EXCELLENT commentary in English about what’s going on during the dance. I wouldn’t have been able to appreciate the dance at all without the commentary, … Continue reading Orange Chocolate Chapter 5
Wild Ones (Arakure) volume 9 is out from Viz. My copy is on it’s way from Amazon :). As such, the volume 9 chapter will be unavailable until Volume 10 is released and the volume 8 chapters are now available again. Oh, something I just noticed: The Viz version chapter numbers are different than those in Hana to Yume. Viz’s chapter 40 is Hana to Yume’s chapter 39. I have no idea why this is. Please support the author by purchasing the manga. Here’s a link. Continue reading Wild Ones (Arakure) Volume 9 is out from Viz
What I like about this chapter is the way, towards the end, Chiro starts to confront her own personality. She wonders if she is as bubble-headed as Ritsu is playing her. I wonder will Ritsu’s behavior while he’s in Chiro body affect the way Chiro’s friends and colleagues perceive her. Sure, Chiro has her impulsive moments, but she’s not fiery like when Ritsu inside of her. I wonder will Ritsu soon begin to confront his own personality. I think he’s definitely getting a different perspective on Chiro. I get the feeling that he’s taking her more seriously in terms of … Continue reading My Thoughts about Orange Chocolate Chapter 4

I got the link to this website from “hisako” on Twitter. Link 1: http://anime-manga.jp/index.htmlLink 2: http://search.japantimes.co.jp/cgi-bin/nn20100218f2.html This is a website that helps English speakers learn some common expressions in Japanese that you would hear from different characters in anime and manga. What I think is really neat about this website is that it demonstrates some of the different levels of Japanese speak according to different types. For instance the butler using honorifics from the humble perspective. The lessons are given with kanji, kana, or romanji (roman letters) and in spoken Japanese. The website is still under construction, but check out what … Continue reading Fun Website to Learn some Common Phrases in Anime and Manga
