FAQ

Why the use of Japanese words in between dialogue?!
I was asked this in many patterens!! Check those out!!

Its pointless!!
its disruptive!!
Its not justified!!
Are you trying to show off that you know some Japanese?
Stop the gaplish!!
Stop trying to make this story suck more than it already is!!

Yeah!! I heard all of that.. some were pointing it out politely and some were plain…(I leave it to your judgment.) and I might not look it, but I actually CARE about what I hear…

Now for people who asked this out of pure constructive critique, with good intentions
The story was meant for me , and artist san only at the beginning, it came out natural (we were not FORCING it onto the dialogue,, it came out like that, and we loved it that way) when we decided to share it, we didn't want to change the form it had, and we included a translation for all the words in the artist description , but seeing that many had mentioned it,,, I m asking you, all NICE , POLITE, CARING people who actually LOVE the story and read every page of it and comment regularly,,
***************************************************

What do you think about the use of Japanese words in the dialogue?
1-it is cool
2-I don't mind it
3-it annoys me, I d like it more if it's not there

***************************************************

Basing on your opnions, we will concider keeping the words or removing it…please care to respond to this

As much as I m welcoming any critique and taking it very seriously,,,and though I m known not to be someone with long temper,,,some people just crossed all …politeness lines with this..and yet..I tried to response to those as nice as possible..

For people who were not…nice asking this…
1-no, I m not trying to show off that I grasped few Japanese words out of long hours of watching anime
2-no, we are not trying to disrupt you through reading
3-if you think the story suck, find something better to do with your life and don't show up again in our pages,, we sure wont miss you
4-if you like the art and still think the story suck, just look at the pictures and keep quite!
5-had it ever crossed your mind that this is OUR STORY!? If I wanted to make them speak French, German, ancient Greek, hieroglyphic , I am gonna do it, and no one should question my choice,you can always write your own thing and CONTROL what languages should be used, but not when its OTHERS story..

Wow! I sound evil XD
-------------------------------------------------------------------
2-what happened to Sakura?
Nothing! Really!! Nothing at all that she wont appear ^^

Did she replace Kumiko in Sand village?
No, she didn't

Is she with Tsuande now?
No, she is not

Where the hell has she gone?
She went to a LONG trip lasting the entire doujenshi and she said she doesn’t want to be disturbed XD

Do you hate Sakura?
Yes
-----------------------------------------------------------------

3-do you mind if I colored a certain page?!
Not at all!! Feel free to color doujenshi pages,,it makes us happy
please let us know first and link us to the end project so that we can favor and thank you ^^ and credit us for the story and original art and link back to us and we shall be very happy ^_^

-----------------------------------------------------------------

4-Is this is going to be a romantic story!? OC X (insert name)
Yes, there is gonna be romance in the doujenshi, wethere its who X who,,this is you need to wait to find out yourself…

-----------------------------------------------------------------

5- are you mary-sue-ing your charctors?
No, god forbid , I love my characters and I want them to be as perfectly fleshed out as possible, If romance is going to happen , I m saying* confidently* that its gonna be as realistic and natural and believable as possible.. I actually despite anything that doesn't make sense,, and I hate putting the characters I love OUT of their characters so rest assured, I won't do that, thanks for caring though
-----------------------------------------------------------------

6-I hate romance , don't ruin your story!!
Unfortunatly! I love romance!! XDDDD and its my opnioin and the artist's that counts,,anyway,,it won't happen till a while ,,you can read assured

:iconmeitantei-inu:
I don't mind the insertion of Japanese XDD I'm used to it because a lot of people do it >.> As long as the storyline is still there XD ROFL put the story in heiroglyphics XDDD That would be wierd O_o ((It's a joke though, don't change the language >__> ))

XDD You don't like Sakura D: But I guess if you did put her in your story, the stoyline would be hard to work with XDD

I like the storyline of the doujin, it's going great XDD Don't mind what other people are saying about it, they're just.. s\gfkjahg *can't think of a word*

Just continue with the doujin or you guys will make Inu cry D:

well i like japan i can sing a song in Japense i like how you used them in the story it's more exciting than other storys that way
:iconbroken0dream:
I like how you guys use Japanese words, it doesn't bother me at all, in fact, it helps me lear Japanese. ^^

I noticed you're not fond of Sakura. ^^; Hehe... I'll just asume she wen't on a training trip or something. >.>; *loves all characters minus Sasuke, even like OROCHIMARU* But I guess that having her in there could ruin the plotline since she would be all over Sasuke and not let Kumiko even insult him. ^^;

Yay, romance. Well, as long as it isn't romance-angst. (God forbid O_O; )

愛シテルの クリス です~。

(゜w゜*)
:iconhappy-vamil:
Oh I enjoy the Japanese words! It expands my very small vocabulary!

I love the story, and though I'm not really a romance person, I respect that it's your story, and I'll keep reading regardless of any plot elements I dislike. Who am I to criticize? Keep working hard at it! :D
