can you scan a couple pages and give me a link? From the cover text alone, it could be either Chinese or Japanese, and some inside text would be handy -- thanks! ^__^</font></td></tr></table></td></tr></table></BLOCKQUOTE>

I can kinda communicate with my gramps...and I even taught him some English words! He knows how to say rice...but somehow, it comes out as "lice"... [img]tongue.gif[/img] ...

^^;;; I feel amazingly rude trying to post about the original thread here, somehow, though it completely baffles me as to why...

anyhow, thanks for the scans, Kat! (I can't type dotted things from my antiquated Win95 machine, sorry...) Yep, it's Japanese, and mercifully the author both typed large amounts of the dialogue and did so in a size that's reasonable for reading... wai! (I may need sharper images of some of the sides of the pages to get a couple of the kanji that turned out kinda blurry, but in general it looks supremely legible to me...)

Upshot would be I'm willing to add it to my translation queue if you're willing to wait for me, although if you find someone less busy/faster I won't be offended! ^^;;

Peculiar things my brain comes up with in this state of sleep-deprivedness: Ember-fang, I'm wondering if your sig file means you're actually a refugee from Pet Shop of Horrors...?

lol, not rude at all [img]tongue.gif[/img] it is what the topic was about, afterall... [img]tongue.gif[/img] if you ignore us going completely off topic XD [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Sure, I can wait. ^_^ If you need better scans, let me know, those were pretty rushed. thank you sooo much ^__^

No [img]tongue.gif[/img] It's actually because I've a history of 'accidentally' killing of my pets... [img]eek.gif[/img] ...The first pets I had were mealworms...and they died...my second one, fishes, died too, and lastly, hamsters...I got a pair, male and female, they had many many children...but they too died, and most of their children too...mostly because their parents were cannibals...
