If you think like an east-asian, then you can understand east-asian languages easier. The fundamental problems are not pronunciation, nor even the written script (though that's not easy), but rather the very different way of thinking and almost completely unrelated words.
That is very true...the symbolic patterns are certainly quite prominent.

Though I think English is easier than Japaneses, still.

The difference between typos and English is the same as between Tokyopop and Viz.

Now let's play nice, children. My daughter and I are both spelling and grammar nazis, but I have found myself humbled by what people have found and fixed in editing Golden Time. Shame on me! I need to proofread my own typing, now that I'm getting dyslexic fingers in my old age . . .

I love how you decide others' title before they know about it.

For some reason, I can never 'proofread' myself, properly. Just as in tests...how you say it...it just seems that I find my translations, my works, 'repulsive'.
