I have been reading translated books (from any languages to mine) and see differences between the original and the translated ones. Bad translation can ruin a book. Some years ago I picked up The Chronicles of Narnia from a local bookstore. It was so boring that I sold it to another bookstore the next morning. Then one of my friends let me borrow his English version, and I finished the whole series in seven days(the magic of summer vacation )
Anyway, here's the point:


What do you think of manga translation?
-It's good so far.
-Some minor errors, but who cares? It's the pictures that count.
-Bad, but can I do anything about it?
-I only read raws!(Luxury Choice)
-Don't know.
and another choice that should not be included but I still list here:
-I'm a translator you know. You want to read or what?


Btw,

Cool

Have you read two or more manga at the same time??

yeah....not a problem for me
nope,its confusing.......
only if its one shot..
only for non-heavy manga that doesn't require thinking

Something on the lines of "Do you read sidebars?" and maybe in the option something about if their scanlated or not

Who'd win in a fight? Inuyasha (from Inuyasha) or Yoh (from Shaman King)?

I just wanna know what people say! (I don't know who I'd pick, I love them both...) <3

1 Yes
2 LUV ALL THE BISHOUNEN/BISHOUJO!!
2 No
3HECK NO

- Nook
- Bebook
- Sony Reader
- Jetbook
- iPad

- Other
- No, I read them from my computer / notebook.

This isn't necessarily manga related, but I'm interested in the purchases of leechers and non-leechers. I was having an argument with a friend stating that we're more likely to buy foreign vehicles due to our inclination to read manga (then music, anime, drama, etc) and thus be more exposed to foreign culture than our fellow Americans. Thus, what do we all drive? I'd be curious to know if I'm right.

For example:

What vehicle do you have or would you buy if you had the money?
1. Own domestic, would buy domestic.
2. Own domestic, would buy foreign.
3. Own foreign, would buy domestic.
4. Other

Cry me a river, build me a bridge and get over it.
