OK, how about a thread for Karin goodness, from the anime Karin/Chibi Vampire (Japanese/English). If not her, then just dangling boobies is good.

Something I got, and please don't use that retarded Chibi vampire crap by tokyopop. They don't fuck know what chibi is and I don't see how physically "Chibi" is Karin. They could have just used the little vampire or something and not get the author pissed off herself.

A classic case of "Could be worse."

I just don't see why they had to change it from the original title in Japanese. Karin. Simple, effective, and easy to remember!

They already had a manga called Kamichama Karin. Trying to avoid confusion.

I don't remember Karin's breasts being THAT big.

This her grandma or something?


...oh, there exists a dojin of Karin.

There was a reason for that. In the end they found out that the ritual they were doing wasn't to become a true vampire but was one for breast enlargement. So that's why Karin's breasts are much bigger than normal in that scene.

Maybe someone else already held the copyright over the title "Karin" (which is very likely) in the USA. Or maybe in Japan they have less strict copyright laws and works can share the same title.

Cute, but I wouldn't call Karin exactly "cheeky". She was very obedient and nice to her parents and polite to everyone.

>Chibi Vampire is the title used for the English translation of the Karin manga and novels.[3] The title was changed by the U.S. publisher Tokyopop to avoid potential confusion with another of their manga titles, Kamichama Karin, and also because the simple title Karin was not very attention-grabbing

lol, the short title and it being a name was actually what grabbed my attention about this series and made me check it out. dumbass publishers.

Same, was browsing some new manga to read when I saw "Karin", short to the point so caught my attention. When I read what it was about I got hooked.

They also cited the fact that there was a hentai spelled Karen, so they didn't want people to think it was porn...

Sadly the name "Chibi Vampire" pretty much killed my itch to purchase the books and put them on my shelf. Each time I get tempted when I go to the store see the spines and somehow just get unmotivated and move on to the next series of books. A shame to, would of been nice next to my Kage Tora & Kanpai! books.

Does anyone know if the novels are any good? They're actually translating them, I was surprised.

You can't copyright a title in the USA, moron.

Another stupid name change, "Detective Conan" to "Case Closed"
Gaijin media companies thought it was too close to Conan the Barbarian. XD

I have both the manga, and the anime. I prefer the manga over the anime. :/
Does the way the profiles are drawn annoy anyone by any chance? 'cause it drives me nuts
>> Anonymous
I prefer the manga, simply because it was the first one to come out and is truest to the mangaka's intentions. I don't really need to see the director butcher the storyline in the anime.

Although I have to admit, Fullmetal Alchemist was the best anime transition I've seen.

Great point.

Kamichama Karin, Kari, Karen. Japan are the creators of these mangas and I don't see any Japanese folks getting confused with the titles. Are these publishers trying to say that people are THAT dumb or they just enjoy making extreme faggotry of manga world?

Tokyopop/Mixx was founded by Stu Levy, a teenaged Jew who took a course in Japanese, and then a vacation of indefinite length in Japan on his parent's tab, simply because he "had never been."

While in Japan he "discovered" anime and manga, and when he came back home to America to tell us all about it, he realized that we had already known about it since long before he was born. Then he realized that people actually got PAID to bring this stuff over, so he said "me too!"

He went to Japan again, got a $500,000 loan from a Japanese bank, and bought the manga rights to Sailor Moon. He then proceeded to exploit and abuse Sailor Moon fans (his best friend and company vice-president co-founder even decided to quit after Stu's decision to pull Sailor Moon from Mixxzine and change the magazine's direction one month after taking people's money for year-long subscriptions), and he used the money to leverage Mixx/Tokyopop into becoming the biggest, shittiest manga publisher in America.

His biggest and only worthy contribution to manga history is that he pushed the price down to $10, and got manga into bookstores, giving it much greater mainstream appeal.
