Wow, delicious shared book loves! ♥ /adds!

Baccano, Temeraire, Phoenix Wright, Pokemon, plus your most excellent taste in TV~

AND, Latin and Japanese! I'm a dual major in those two, and am also shooting for some sort of translator gig eventually. I'd love to commiserate with you, and geek out over them besides.

What's your thesis on~?

So many fabulous things in common ♥~

And whoa, double major Latin and Japanese - officially envious/impressed! Adding like the wind, if I may be so bold.

Thesis is.. supposedly on usages/appearances/aspects of youkai in the series Nurarihyon no Mago, more largely on the place of ancient/traditional culture in modern society. I wanted to look at more than one series, and check out localisation issues, but was quickly told that's more like a PhD. and was sad.

sldnkf, do not be impressed, my school actually has really shit programs. OTL (Well, our Classics department is just new, so I basically get a major for sitting around reading the Aeneid and Metamorphoses, which is A-OK with me. :3)

And dude, that's a totally awesome thesis. I'm not familiar with that series, but it sounds like something really neat to research -- too bad about the localization part! If I could just write a bunch of papers picking apart translation and localization choices, I would be so happy.

Holy shit I lol'd at that Jaws gif. D:

BUT BUT BUT you like Jurassic Park and dinosaurs and other cool stuff (I don't care much for anime/manga but hells, you like Terry Pratchett, LotR etc!), do you think you'd like to be friends? c:

I realise this is in the wrong order since I added you already but your icon brought me so much joy I HAD TO ADD A REPLY HERE. T-Rex deserves it.
