Re: Introduction Thread
Hi! I'm Ju-da-su. You should have realize that that is not my real name, so don't ask for the real one. I'm 17, going to be 18 this November. I'm Thai. I like to draw, read manga, watch anime, and play games. I also like to play around with Japanese seiyuu's roles by mixing their roles into another role (example, I always joke that the time when Zoro lets Sogeking hang onto his sword during the battle with Jyabura and Kaku that it is like Moses (Tales of Legendia) letting Tytree (Tales of Rebirth) hang on to his spear. Something like that)
My favorite manga is probably One Piece, Bleach, Naruto, Kingdom Hearts II and the Tales games' mangas (especially Tales of the Abyss and Tales of Destiny 2). Favorite anime at a moment includes Tales of Symphonia and Busou Renkin.
Since my motivation of being to listen and understand the Japanese songs' lyrics without reading them, I began translating manga about 3 years ago. Some of the manga I am working on for translation is One Piece, Kingdom Hearts II and Tales of the Abyss. But because of that, I got more and more worried about accuracy, especially how I always want to translate the manga that no one is translating, like Tales of the Abyss. (when no one else is translating it, it means that the manga is actually extremely unique that I don't have any source to check whether or not I'm doing it correctly) So, I actually decided to join because of my stupid recklessness. (Tales of the Abyss manga got very complicated kanji that sometimes I can't even find it in my dictionary - -") Just to be safe, in another words. Anyway, all is because I want to practice my reading for Japanese, I guess.
So, nice to meet you all. I hope I can get some help with my translation here, and possibly be able to help others as well. ^_^"
