I like the end where the importance of the sound effects are illustrated. Well, it's not just sound but those overlays that can explain anything from sound to texture or emotion. I always look at translations that have "SFX: translation" , and it just isn't the same. There seems to be more sounds that the Japanese are used to putting on paper. I wonder if it was like that from before the days of manga? or if we grew up with 50 years of manga that these 'sound effects' made it's way into the language? That’s amazing stuff. thoroughly entertaining read.

Keep it coming. Where are those other JANICA blog posts... haha. These sort of lectures and articles availble w/ translations in English are spread so thinly on the web that it's a real shame when so much of the fandom has gone digital. I'll have to bug you and SDS about getting on these trans efforts next time after I get back to the states. Good shit Kransom. Keep it coming. Where are those other JANICA blog posts… haha.
