"Butler" and is called tentative

[princesshannah4.livejournal.com]

So my mind exploded very violently when I discovered that Jeeves manga actually exists.

Very eager to see what the folks in Nihon had to say about Wodehouse's greatest creation, I decided to put the page through Google Translator.



WARNING: Massive Engrish ahead.






I can just hear the Bingo doujins being drawn already...




This is now officially Bertie's Rape Face:



I certainly hope so...



Here is the complete page in Engrish.

ALSO, IF ANYONE KNOWS ANYONE WHO'S SCANLATING THE MANGA, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. I've only been able to find chapter 1.

...I just DIED LAUGHING.

(I got better so I could write the page, but I'm going to die laughing again very shortly.)

I think my favorite is the last one. Or maybe the first one. Or the third one, or the fourth...or all of them?

[princesshannah4.livejournal.com]

Have I ever mentioned that I adore your icon?

[jianna.livejournal.com]

Didn't someone upload a translation of the manga a while ago? I assume it was here. But it is on my harddrive! (I think, I don't know that I would have deleted it)

[hephaistia.livejournal.com]

The 'worry is unnecessary' one is so cute. All of them are, actually. I'm still LOL-ing at the 3rd one.

The Manga Jeeves certainly looks way better than the one on book covers. He's holding 'All for Love'? Wow!

[drunken-kurage.livejournal.com]

The first one definitely made me laugh. Though I think the lettering should have been flashing. XD

And I am so buying a copy of that comic...if I can find one.

Oh god, I died. Engrishy Jeeves macros FTW.

I'm pretty sure somebody was scanslating it? I think I have the first three chapters? I'll check when I get back on my other computer.

[queen-fiend.livejournal.com]

OMG Aunt Agatha is frightening. XD Love the macros!

Ahahaha, win! WIN!

*joins the pile of people who died from laughing here*

[puokki.livejournal.com]

Seen that translated and it was AWESOME. And the ending was super cute if I remember correctly.

[stalkerbunny.livejournal.com]

:D
I do believe this wins everything. ♥

Jeeves happening...pffft. XD Actually if I happened to end up on his bad side that would be pretty terrifying, hrr...I'D

Translations, eh? *to hunt down RIGHT NAO or not to...:'3*

[bulldogscram.livejournal.com]

I laughed so hard milk came out of my nose. 'The house of wood' is a very unfortunate translation of Wodehouse. *snerk*

I have to say, the art in this looks really interesting. I wonder if you can get an english copy?

Thanks for sharing!

[princesshannah4.livejournal.com]

I heard so too, but it's not under the "manga" or "J&W comic strip" tag. Where would I find it?

[princesshannah4.livejournal.com]

I squeed a little when I saw that :D

[hephaistia.livejournal.com]

It's definitely a squee-able thing. I did too. Lol.

[princesshannah4.livejournal.com]

I can probably make a .gif of that. Also, the manga is only out in Japanese right now. They just released volume 1 over there in March.

[princesshannah4.livejournal.com]

:D

[princesshannah4.livejournal.com]

You can't, yet. It just started in Japan last year-ish. Hopefully, considering the content, Western licensers will be all over this once they get a few more volumes out.

[drunken-kurage.livejournal.com]

The language won't be a problem. I'm a bit of a purist, so I prefer getting things in their original languages. If it's new, it shouldn't be hard to find. I wonder how many volumes they'll make, though.

[jihime47.livejournal.com]

Where? Me wants!

[jane-elliot.livejournal.com]

iridaceaena and I are the ones scanslating the comic. She's the one who put up the actual posts, and I'm not sure I could track them down again. I do have the download links, however, and I'll test them when I get home tonight. If they're still working, I'll repost to the comm at large.

[jane-elliot.livejournal.com]

Then again... I tracked down all of the entries after all and tagged them all with the manga tag.

[angelofmadness7.livejournal.com]

XDDD ENGRISH MACROS FTW <3
I actually have this manga in a zip file it's so awesome <3333333

[dreamwaffles.livejournal.com]

Thanks! :D I love it too.

[princesshannah4.livejournal.com]

Here! They just re-posted it (sorta)

[princesshannah4.livejournal.com]

!!!!

[antony-james-k.livejournal.com]

EE! Bingo-chan. <3 <3 <3

Also, I don't know what the original novel "YABEREDOMOSHABEREDOMO and" is, but I love it already.
Ya be re domo sha be re domo to.

Oh, Bingo. You are the least straight man EVER. Next to Claude and Eustace.

[niektete.livejournal.com]

I might have to take a few Aspirin; I laughed myself into a headache. JEEZ! That's just fan-bally-tastic! Ah, the horrors of Engrish...

[princesshannah4.livejournal.com]

Okay, I read the chapter that has that panel. The collection of Rosie M. Banks novels belongs to Jeeves. It's basically canon now.

[hephaistia.livejournal.com]

Almost everything about J&W is canon, which makes me so happy. Thank you, dear Plum.

Jeeves is a closet-romantic, isn't he?

OH,NO-NO-NO!!

[kateyt.livejournal.com]

LOFLMAO..Oh,no,please...!GoogleTranslated wrong!
Terribly(and very laughably!) wrong...
On behalf of Japanese, I'll try my best..here.

GoogleTranslate:
"Originally from prestigious school, now bright with good-natured kind of a carefree life in a London flat, occasionally running into strange taste of some good young man."

Original Japanese text saying:
"Graduated from the famous university, he now spends his days in a London flat, enjoying carefree single-man's life. He is gentle, kind, good-natured, merry...though sometimes showing a bad-taste (in clothing)...basically, he is a nice young man."

There's a blur expression in original text-Japanese language always tend to be blur,yeah..-that caused Google mistook, I suppose.

Plese don't misunderstand that this Manga-version Bertie is considered to be a homosexual. Personally, I don't mind if it turned out to be so,(;D) but it seems the writer&artist has no intention to go that direction. It is a light-hearted comedy manga,actually!

*sigh* I've never thought my first comment to this lovely communty..like this. I just couldn't be shied away an awful error of Google. Whooops.

Re: OH,NO-NO-NO!!

[princesshannah4.livejournal.com]

I knew that wasn't their intention, but Google's cockups were just too funny to ignore. Thanks for sharing!

[kateyt.livejournal.com]

Thanks for quick reply!
*blush**hold my head*
feel myself having-no-sense of humor-person.
Whooops again.(+_+)
