So, I haven't said much on the subject of this whole wankfest (aside from Kyt and I making plans to Rebelt because y'all had a fake war without us! T_T), but there was one observation I'd like to make, because this is something I've found very comforting.
In all the posts I've seen about the wank, no one, other than
greatkingjames, and that was to be expected given his relationship status - but not one other person has sided with
ninkasa and
fabricalchemist.
There's something really wonderful in that. Even people who dislike what we're doing are willing to respect us as a group because we keep to our own corner of the world and let people avoid it completely if they choose, or join us if they'd like.
... It makes me happy. ^_^
And on a completely random note, can someone tell me how to ask for manga in Chinese? My dictionary isn't exactly helpful. ^^;;; That and Bluebird's Illusion, because I could probably find a copy and I want one! ^.~
... and love to
skyler_daemon and
bard_linn, as the two of them are writing ficcage. ::squees:: I've been itching for a good read all day with no luck, and they make me super super happy!!!!!! ^__________________^

Date: 2005-06-24 05:29 am (UTC)My one regret is that now that people are writing, I'm going to the Great Wall for the next 30 hours or so and won't get to read / reply as quickly as I usually could. (le sad.)

Date: 2005-06-23 08:48 pm (UTC)And if you want to ask for manga, ask for man(4) hua(4) shu(1). (The number after the word is the tone~) So that's basically something like "cartoon" (man hua) book (shu). So you'd be asking something like, "ni you mei you man hua shu?" If you want them in chinese, ask for zhong wen man hua shu; if you want them in japanese, as for ri(4) ben(3) man hua shu, and if you want them in english, ask for ying(1) wen(2) man hua shu.
Good luck!! If you need any other help just ask! If I don't know I can ask my mom. XD;;

Date: 2005-07-08 12:48 pm (UTC)Well...this may disappoint you....mainland China probably isn't the best place to find manga, because the Chinese government has censorship up there. This means any publications that have violence or *any* kind of sexual hints to it are banned. In particular, the government blocks a LOT of manga because it thinks it has a negative influence on society. So even *if* you find a place that sells manga, don't expect it to be like Hong Kong or Japan.
My best friend lived in Beijing for a year, and being the anime lover she is, was unable to find any manga.
The only exception I've seen to anime is in Shanghai, when there was this anime convention held during summer. But that's about it.
