THE TELEPATHY OF LOVE
and from the GokuTsuna friending meme, HELLO TO
incoming, googuru_girl and frostheavens!
WELCOME, and HELLO
Check out the red string of FATE connecting Gokudera & Tsuna. *grin*
This is, uh, a really, really cute Boss Co. & Nyunco anthology that I really, really, really should get around to scanning. A fair bit of it has already been scanned and scanlated, like Ti Voglio Bene (this AWESOME doujin about Tsuna learning Italian). ♥
So I was talking to dual_avi about the legendary Gokudera/Tsuna TELEPATHY OF LOVE scene, and I was saying HEY, there was MORE GOKUDERA/TSUNA in the original Japanese!panel than WAS TRANSLATED, and THIS is the proof:
scanlation vs. original manga vs. PUBLICATION
1. onemanga scanlation
2. original shounen jump publication
When Gokudera's giving Tsuna the loving right-hand man shakedown, he's saying JYUUDAIME, not BOSS. I'm just picky about this one, because it's NOT AS IF YOU CAN MAKE A MISTAKE with this: ボス= BOSS, 十代目= JYUUDAIME/TENTH. It's not even open to translator interpretation, this is a LITERAL MISTRANSLATION.
3. official publication
Then there was cause for even more !!!!!!!!!! when I saw the published version of the manga (this is Volume 20, by the way, the one with the superhot Tsuna cover):
DID YOU KNOW that Reborn's publishers PUT EVEN MORE GOKUTSUNA INTO THE PUBLISHED VERSION?
once again:
scanlation vs. manga vs. official publication
Look at what Gokudera's saying now in the SHAKEDOWN OF LOVE scene: "右腕" - RIGHT-HAND.
so, scanlation vs. official publication (changes marked in red):
I am one of those awful people who doesn't collect the entire range of a particular manga series, but goes off and collects favourite volumes in every language I can understand. Yeah, that's pretty crazy, but hey, Gokudera and Tsuna haven't appeared together since, you know when? FEBRURARY. THIS YEAR.
Also, a couple of FST and music recs:
LOCKED TO fst
♫ Seven Deadly Sins: A VARIA FST
♫ A Fandom FST: set up on the basic premise that Fandom = The Mafia. Yeah, really.
♫ Strange Attractors, an XKCD FST. Just reading the tracklist makes me think of Spanner, Shouichi, and Spanner/Shouichi. ♥
♫ The Heart At Your Feet, a Gankutsuo FST.
UNLOCKED
♫ two-if-by-sea's monthly mixes are pretty awesome: I liked the look of the March mix.
♫ petronia's August mix charmed me right off with the first track: And I Love Her, by the Beatles. Perfect lazy-summer song.
♫ one hell of a cache of funky music.
On an unrelated note I could read chochajin's entries on Japan forever.
