"Butler" and is called tentative

Jun 05, 2009 00:25

So my mind exploded very violently when I discovered that Jeeves manga actually exists.

Very eager to see what the folks in Nihon had to say about Wodehouse's greatest creation, I decided to put the page through Google Translator.

( With visual aids, here's some of the stuff I found there )

manga+graphic novels, macros

...I just DIED LAUGHING.

(I got better so I could write the page, but I'm going to die laughing again very shortly.)

I think my favorite is the last one. Or maybe the first one. Or the third one, or the fourth...or all of them?

Have I ever mentioned that I adore your icon?

dreamwaffles June 5 2009, 18:49:06 UTC

Thanks! :D I love it too.

Didn't someone upload a translation of the manga a while ago? I assume it was here. But it is on my harddrive! (I think, I don't know that I would have deleted it)

I heard so too, but it's not under the "manga" or "J&W comic strip" tag. Where would I find it?

The 'worry is unnecessary' one is so cute. All of them are, actually. I'm still LOL-ing at the 3rd one.

The Manga Jeeves certainly looks way better than the one on book covers. He's holding 'All for Love'? Wow!

I squeed a little when I saw that :D

hephaistia June 5 2009, 10:48:19 UTC

It's definitely a squee-able thing. I did too. Lol.

Okay, I read the chapter that has that panel. The collection of Rosie M. Banks novels belongs to Jeeves. It's basically canon now.

The first one definitely made me laugh. Though I think the lettering should have been flashing. XD

And I am so buying a copy of that comic...if I can find one.

princesshannah4 June 5 2009, 10:48:50 UTC

I can probably make a .gif of that. Also, the manga is only out in Japanese right now. They just released volume 1 over there in March.

The language won't be a problem. I'm a bit of a purist, so I prefer getting things in their original languages. If it's new, it shouldn't be hard to find. I wonder how many volumes they'll make, though.

Oh god, I died. Engrishy Jeeves macros FTW.

I'm pretty sure somebody was scanslating it? I think I have the first three chapters? I'll check when I get back on my other computer.
