What he said. Here's the link to the thread that was devoted to stopping tazmo: [url]http://www.mangaupdates.com/showtopic.php?tid=1403&hl=tazmo[/url]. There was a pretty popular page that went around a couple years back by a scanlator known as blud that summed up what the deal with tazmo was, but I can't seem to find a copy of it You'll get the gist of it from that topic.

I have a Q about the Code Geass anime. Is Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion R2 a continuation of the first or is it something different?

Continuation. Same characters plus new ones.

Thanks.

========================

I have another question... Oh and thanks to whomever persuaded me into watching Code Geass, it was awesome lmao.
From what I saw via Google, a season 3 of Code Geass is announced, and i was wondering if anyone knew if it will be a completely new set of characters except CC or is there going to be some continuation on Lelouch?

New set of characters except C.C. It's set years before the first season.
Officially, Lelouch is dead, so there can't be a continuation.

So, I have been watching the Kara no Kyoukai movies. What is the literal English translation for the title?

The movie series is also called Garden of Sinners, but "kyoukai" actually means "church." Plus, I thought "kara" meant "from." For example, "Nihongo culasu wa 8 ji kara 9 ji made desu," can be translated to, "Japanese class if from 8 to 9." I'm curious if "kara" is an actual noun or something.

Kara no Kyoukai literally means Boundary of emptiness (source: personal english-japanese dictionary). "The garden of sinners" is the english subtitle given to the series, which from my experience is not uncommon. You can actually see it here: [url]http://myanimelist.net/anime/2593/Kara_no_Kyoukai_1:_Fukan_Fuukei/pic&pid=21741[/url] when you look under the kanji. So it probably should be "Boundary of emptiness: The garden of sinners."

Also the "kara" you're thinking of is spelled in hiragana when written, whereas the "Kara" used in the title is spelled in Kanji, resulting in its different meaning. When looking up Japanese words, look up the Kanji as the Romanized version of the word can have multiple meanings, as you just saw.
