It's in such threads that I understand my japenese still have a long way to go. I really try to read but meeh, I barely keep the level.

Though it seems a weird suggestion, above all based on the rules of this board, but please, keep this thread like this huhuhu.

Well anyway, Japan culture and anime/manga are amazingly well accepted here, maybe because we too have the "BD" (our manga) mixing illustrations and dialogues, and such, manga weren't really different than ours, aside the fact we have to read from right to left.

It truly became popular when I think about it, the amount of manga now legally translated is amazing compared to what there was there ... 10 years? Back then when I was still young, there was only Naruto and things like that, the mainstream, but now each time I go in a market I can see shoujo, yaoi, yuri, even manga that aren't fansubbed in english.
