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

Sorry for making a second request in one day! Hey, look - it's a bird, it's a plane, it's requester-man! (Woman. Um.) biggrin

Yeah, so I'm looking for a romance manga in which one of the main characters has to cope with being friends with someone after a rejection/break-up... It could be the protagonist or some other major character that goes through this, but the character should be major enough to be mentioned in the official summary.

This aspect (trying to be friends after a rejection/break-up) should be pretty major in the manga, even though the attempt to be friends might fail or succeed. It might fail by turning into enmity or apathy, or even by turning back into romance - or maybe the friendship will succeed, after all. Either option is fine.

Please recommend ONLY shoujo, josei, BL and GL manga!

Thanks in advance. smile

Boku to Watashi no Henai Jijou: It happens in the very first chapter and it seems more cute and funny rather than dramatic and angsty like you would expect from this kind of situation. It's seinen but it seems like shoujo and josei readers would like this too.

Obaka-chan, Koigatariki
Spoiler (highlight to view)
Main girl and guy date for a few chapters, but then guy dumps her. And then the plot is kinda about her moving on (and their still lingering feelings) from him and finding a new love in this other main guy.


Cousin
Spoiler (highlight to view)
Not really a main plot, but one of the main motivations for the main girl to change herself is being in love with this older guy. But is eventually rejected and how they both try to keep things platonic between them afterwards.

@ShadowSakura, sorry for being daft, but is the girl you're talking about the gender-bending protagonist or one of the other main chars? I MUST KNOW, lol. Even if I'm going to give the plot away to myself because right now, where I'm at, nothing like that has happened! I don't care - spoil meeeeee! biggrin

One of the other main charas. And it isn´t really gender-bender
Spoiler (highlight to view)
the main protagonist is half boy half girl. The upper half is male the lower female
