Were it not for the Internet, we J-philes would still be watching Sailor Moon, reading translations of Ranma 1/2 released at a rate of one every 18 months, all the while wondering what life beyond "annie-may" or "man-gah" was like in the magical land of Japan.
Instead, we get a solid 60~75% of everything available in the Japanese market, translated by both commercial and charity sources (AKA fans), and sold for a reasonable price plus horrible shipping charge, straight to the US of A. Or Europe. Or nearly anywhere in the world where one can expect the Internet to be made publicly available in a cafe or library.
This is what I want for Xmas.
Maybe next Xmas, as I understand they are on backorder for the next 6 months.
FYI: "pan" (パン）is Japanese for "bread."

Deja Vu
None of this content, unless specifically noted in an individual post, was made by me. It's all stuff I fell in love with on the Internet. It comes from /b/, FARK, Something Awful, Flickr, personal blogs, ICHC and related text+img blogs, etc. If you find something you did on here, you can tell me to take it off or, even better, let me know the correct credit and/or URL you'd like attached to it, and I will put 'er right on there. Thanks for your understanding, and thanks for the lulz.
For the lulz:
