Hi guys,

Recently I was thinking that it would be nice to extend my Japanese vocabulary with, let's put it that way, a “vocab of love”. (You know, something more sophisticated than “君が愛しているよ。”) I don't really know where to start to look for such a think but thought that surely there are movies or books that include the right phrases.

So here comes my request, could you post here a title of a movie or a book that I would be able to use to learn this “vocab of love”?

(I realise that at times availability of the suggested title can be limited, or one can not be sure about the quality of the phrases, they must be of a PUA grade BTW, so if you would care to post samples of those phrases here then it would be great!)

Thank you,
Inny Jan

... but you know, those titles, plus my reasonably sized deck, might be helpful for this post of mine: "How can I date a mod from this site?".

FYI, I've heard sarcasm doesn't work very well with Japanese girls.

I like the lines from there but still... no Japanese sad

Anyone cares to translate?

Dilbert, for example, does have its Japanese translations:
