What is the best way to translate a dialect or accent of the original language that is not the norm (e.g., Kansai-ben)?
Different country's English accent (e.g., Irish or Australian)
Different American regional accent (e.g., Southern)
Have the character use different slang (e.g., 'pops' instead of 'dad')
Minor speech pattern differences (e.g., dropping the 'g' in '-ing' words)
No difference in translation but have a translation note
I don't care

Can anyone recommended any manga dealing with arranged marraige. Please no BL or GL

I want it to be like any of the following


a. Girl runaways from arranged marry meets a guy and eventually marries him

b. Girl runaway from arranged marriage meets a guy , falls in love with him, and he turns out to be the guy she was supposed to marry anyway

c. Girl meets the guy she is supposed to marry and falls in love with him

d. Girl is forced to be married to guy she doesn't like meets another guy and runs away with him

e. Girl likes the guy she is supposed to marry, but he brakes the marriage off, and the girl wants to do anything to get it back

f. Arranged marriage is broken off, girl or guy is suddenly made to marry someone else , the couple do anything to get married again...


Thank you! biggrin

Goong It isn't really like any of the situations u described but the two married and end up falling in love
Spoiler (highlight to view)
it turns into an letter e. sort of thing but the girl divorces(not because she wants to) the guy and he tries to get her back but gives up eventually

Bride of the Water God not like any of the situations but they fall in love after marriage
Otoyomegatari The two main characters are part of arranged marriage but its not really a source of angst except for once and im not really sure if the author will press the issue again(maybe she will)
Hope you decide to read one of them although none really fit what you described biggrin

Happy Negative Marriage - it looks very promising but it's not very far along at all at this point since releases are once every three months I think (between Nana to Kaoru releases)

Hapi Mari as mentioned before is really good also

Hanada - c
Destination Heaven Chronicles - I think this fits b but I haven't read it all, and it's been a while.
Reimei no Arcana - c

I second Tsuki no Shippo, Otoyomegatari, and Ranma 1/2, though Ranma is...heh, well it's a big mess of "arranged" marriage contracts.

You can also try the Arranged marriage tag in the categories.

First story of Iinazuke Ryokan; kind of a twist on B you listed.
