Japanglish in Fanfiction: Must you really, author?


Recommended Posts

This is complete speculation, but what the heck: I'd say that unlike Gaelic and Elvish, Japanese is a language to which a lot of your readers--that is, anime fans--have had at least some exposure but in which most of them probably lack substantial expertise. And fans of anything have a tendency to argue vehemently over things that they have just a little bit of knowledge about.

Honestly, that makes a great deal of sense.

A: Makes as much sense as a genuine possibility as any other theory getting posed here, George.
