Aug. 27th, 2009 12:43 pmApparently I have some internet on this vacation. I must use these powers for good!
...And by good I apparently mean whining about Shonen Jump. Eh, close enough.
So, SPHFWLKaiB finally showed up in Bleach. You can probably imagine my reaction. But. Butbutbut. They spelled his name as one word - Szayelaporro, like that. I know that's probably closer to the original, and since the speech bubbles are so narrow it shows up as hyphenated anyway, which is almost like two words. So I really have no reason to be upset about this. But idk, man, I just think it looks dumb. Some other spellings they have that bug me are "Nnoitora" (I know it's not that different, but still) and (are you ready for this one?) "Cirucci Sanderwicci". Sanderwicci? What is she, a BLT? Dude, "Thunderwitch" is possibly the coolest last name ever. You can't screw that up. D: You know what, I think I am just going to be one of those people I hate who ignores canon and spells people's names however she darn well pleases. Like heck I'm giving up "Thunderwitch".
While I'm here, I suppose I should say something briefly about the other mangas in Shonen Jump. Because I can.
Naruto: I really like how Naruto calls Yondaime "Pa". They could have gone with "Dad" so easily, but I like "Pa" better. It gives him character. And it's cute. Pain was a cute kid.
One Piece: Nami/Vivi is so canon.Mr. 2 Bon-chan is amazing.
Ultimo: O.A. must love this series. There is no way Jealousy is a boy.
Yu Yu Hakusho: Natsume is surprisingly attractive. I like seeing all those people from forever ago.
Tegami Bachi: I would probably like this series better if the people didn't have such stupid names. Two words: Jiggy Pepper. Niche makes it worth reading, though. She's great. Also I like the term "Letter Bee". Reminds me of Smellerbee. Or Linda Ellerbee.
Yu-Gi-Oh! GX: I don't care.
Also I am going to see Wicked tonight yay.
