Post: Manga Translation

I have no idea if you're being facetious with those questions or not, but here you go. I've translated some all ages stuff, but not enough to give a good comparison. Probably the most commonly brough...

Actually, I think you're wrong, Jarvik. From books I've read translated from European languages into English, it seems fairly common to leave in gratuitous foreign words and expressions, including tit...

Just throwing out some ideas. Be sure to tell me if anything actually works (or fails horribly) for future reference. When I went back to RTK after avoiding it for around a month, I started doing lik...

I would blame travel fatigue if it were me and I needed something stupid to blame everything on. Everything else may have dominoed from that. This is probably an issue that I shouldn't be giving advic...

Post: Adult (not porn!) Anime Recommandation

5cm/s made me cry, but that's not out of the ordinary. As for the protag, it's not Eva or a harem anime, nor is it a super robot anime. It's wistful and nostalgic (or something along those lines).

I seem to know so little about so many things, Japanese film just being another one. I have to get around to watching some pinku eiga at some point. It sounds pretty cool. And yeah, I've apparently b...

"Moral Dilemmas aside . . . I won't comment on violence." You skipped over the interesting issues. Anyway, I agree with thurd. Why is sex and nudity so stigmatized?

I haven't seen the anime so I was referring to the manga. Anyway, it's been years, though I clearly remember one character being sexually abused with at least one rape scene. I was pretty, "Wow, that'...

I remember reading the manga when it was coming out (or at least still being scanlated). As I recall, it was pretty fetishistic, and there were clearly ecchi parts. I'm not 100% on where I'd draw the ...

My advice is to not worry about it too much. If you're dead tired, reviewing can be futile, but if you only do it when you're in peak condition, you may have difficulty finding a convenient time to re...

I've heard mixed reviews about the newer Illusion stuff. Not enough of that cell shading and anime cool style, right? A bit too 3DPD? Anyway, I liked AG3 and Rapelay, but I haven't cared enough to pla...
