She would be even less willing to do that, seeing as animals are selective as fuck when it comes to breeding. You think you have it bad, try fighting Zanbar the 200 pound Silverback in a deathmatch just for a fuck.

Viz didn't butcher them, it cut their face and skin off and made into a dress, then tucked between its legs and danced to Pokemon theme tune, with its furry OC characters super imposed next to them. Well, it wasn't that bad, but they basically made it to please the Soccer Mom's. To be honest I would just read the originals online, but I collected the Viz translations for the sake of collecting them, starting from when I was 13, so I didn't really know any better. The Ruby and Sapphire chapters haven't been released by Viz yet, but they are going to be.

Pictured: What actually happens. What Viz did is they made it so that Gold trips and accidentally touches her ass. And yes, the manga is worth reading, it gives you the stability and character development the anime never did.

No, he got beat again by some 5 year old with a Hydreigon for reason.

Team Rocket were shelved for Butch and Cassidy, no-one complained then. But like I say, they don't even have to get rid of them completely, they can still appear every now and again.

In my opinion the whole thing is retarded, there is a much, much better solution, and allows Nintendo to keep kids in the anime. What they should have done is change the protagonist every region, but still have the older characters come back every now again. And they should have killed Team Rocket after the Orange League. There's virtually no reason for them to exist anymore, and BW proved changing them into more serious and capable characters didn't make the story and worse, it made better, so I have no idea why they made them shit again.

Or a cute power! Besides, mole rats can't see within their Place of Residence, and they got on with whatever they do just fine I think. She gets protection from the Sun, so although it might be useless to you, its invaluable to her.

I like that she's kind of weak (although its relative, you rip of any us to shreds). I imagine her to just kind of float about aimlessly bumping into things, who needs to be strong? Perhaps there's a small bit of the Human condition reflected by her....

Anyway, the sole decider of all of this is Zun, its just a matter of translation issues.

*but it does not not work the opposite way

Cirno is an oddity. But I'm pretty sure its of non-Japnese origin, in Japanese its "ちるの" which is "chi-ru-no". But then, the fact that its it is usually written in Hiragana makes me think its a Japanese name. I'm not too sure on Cirno, since I don't know where the name comes from. The main problem is that is easy to turn Japanese into English, because we can pronounce all their words, but because Kana is syllabic, they can't have things like "Alice", it has to be converted into Japanese. Names like "Reimu" we can pronounce, we can pronounce, so they don't have to be changed, but it does work the opposite way. Names like "Letty Whiterock" would cause a Japanese no end of trouble to pronouce, so it has be changed for them. Heck, even Hong Meiling had to be changed. It don't how it works exactly, and I'm not an expert linguist, so please no-one bite my head off about it. Also, this is for the majority of characters, there are exceptions, like Hong Meiring and Cirno, and there was even a debate about Meiling's name on 2ch, so they they just called her China. Again, notice how for the Chinese and English language, her name is kept as Hong Meiling, but in Japanese, it had be changed.

Sorry if I went off on myself a bit, I tried to explain it the best I can, and its an interesting subject.

*foreign name. I don't know where foreing came from.

>> No.10733708 [View]

Its usually the other way round, they start with a foreing name, like Alice, and then it's converted into Japanese. The ones that have Japanese names just keep them in the English patches. That's what I think anyway, you'll have to ask Zun.

I've always like Marisa because she's quite Human and forward, and has to work hard to get as good as she is.

I've noticed that a lot of skinny people can drink a lot. I live above a pub, and its always the scrawny ones who can drink the most. Look at Namasensei, he's not very well built either. Perhaps their metabolisms are faster, so they don't get a hangover as bad?

Youkai very rarely eat Humans these days. If you were such a Primary you would know that.

When she says "exterminating" she means getting them to stop causing whatever problem they're causing most of the time. Most of the shit in Gensokyo is immortal anyway, like all those fairies you blow to smithereens, they're just reborn.

No, I don't think I (or anyone who isn't a loli) could pull it off. I don't see why everyone hates cosplay though, it doesn't "degrade" the character. If you're willing to go to lots of effort to emulate them, that can only be a homage.
