BTW thanks for providing translations for KOR, MB, etc. My Japanese isn't very fluent yet :) Thanks for your time, Leigh Nacpil From cnishida@netcom.com Sun Feb 4 02:26:48 1996 Received: from netcom17.netcom.com by soyokaze.biosci.ohio-state.edu (8.7.1/1.950110) id CAA07978; Sun, 4 Feb 1996 02:26:47 GMT Received: by netcom17.netcom.com (8.6.12/Netcom) id SAA00312; Sat, 3 Feb 1996 18:26:21 -0800 Date: Sat, 3 Feb 1996 18:26:20 -0800 (PST) From: "Craig H.

According to Yoshizumi-san there was a huge letter response on the topic of the color of Arimi's hair. She goes on to say that the final choices were a "light-brown like Meiko's hair" or the present green. It seems the anime folks reasoned that light brown is too "nice-girlish", and for a coquettish person like Arimi, green would be better. (Early on, pink was also considered, except that it seems pink is a color reserved for magical girls whereas green and purple can be used for normal folks. Go figure.) And apparently, they went so far as to create a cel of Arimi with light-brown hair, but there's only one, and Yoshizumi has it, and she says this Arimi looks extremely cute... > > > How 'bout something like: > > > > > > Ginta: > > > That's not right! > > > > > > You're the one that [sono KI ni saseru] > > > > > > ...I thought of "turned me on" for "sono KI ni saseru", but that just > > > sounds so... un-shoujo... ^_^;; > > > > You're the one who stoked my fires, baby. ??? > > > > Ah, maybe not... ^_^ > > haha!!! Umm.... how about "led me on" or "was leading me on." I'm not > sure about the later suggestion because the verb isn't progressive. I'm not sure that's how far he's saying it.

Y'mean, like, why isn't it in your dictionary? ^_^ I keep a few notes around, compiled from the many KOR/MB-trans posts.
