Anime Dictionary

juz for fun~ ^.^ here are some otaku terms

Biseinen
- literally, beautiful young adult; in anime refers to a very pretty or handsome young man, usually over the age of 17-18 but no older than mid-twenties
Bishojo- translates to "pretty girl," of shoujo anime and manga.



Bishonen-literally translates to "pretty boy," normally used to describe a young man(boy) who is either very sexy. In its more literal meaning, it is used to refer to young men who have very feminine features.

Bishi (bishie/bijin)- Some fans prefer to use slightly more sexually neutral bishie (also spelled as bishi) or bijin, but these terms remain less common. 

Chibi(CB)- Japanese for "small," "little," or "young." A "chibi" style drawing of an Anime character usually depicts them as being baby-like, with smaller, chubbier bodies, larger eyes and head, and shorter arms and legs. Chibi characters are usually made to be extremely cute and endearing, and it's not uncommon for even villainous characters to be drawn as such. CB is an acronym for Child Body, and is a prefix indicating a chibi style. Artists draw their characters like this from time to time as a sort of "self-parody."(fans love them as well) Fuku-From the Japanese, meaning "suit" or "uniform". Fukus are most commonly seen as part of a consistent dress code followed by Japanese schoolchildren and students. Fukus can also be seen in military functions. With regards to anime, the sailor fuku ( of Sailor Moon fame) is the most recognized and famous of fukus. Kawaii-Japanese for "cute." A very popular word used among American Anime fans used to descibe characters that are, well, cute. Youkai- (yoh-kai) a kind of spirit, sometimes representing a particular animal (i.e. Sesshoumaru is a "wolf-youkai") and is translated into english as "demon". However, the translation is incorrect. (since "Oni" means devil) There is no actual translation that can be used, or even good definition.


Uchuujin- (uu-chuu-jin) Aliens/ Outer space beings. May come in many forms like frog, human and all. Some are friendly but some just want to conquer earth. Directly translated as "universe person"


Ningyo- (nin-gyo) Mermaids. May refer to both mermaids and mermans.
 

Tenshi- (ten-shi) Angel or angels. Opposite of akuma. Usable for both male and female. May/ may not have wings. Different anime may portray it differently. 

Akuma- (ah-ku-ma) Demon / devil. Opposite of Tenshi. Akuma may also be an adjective to emphasize a statement.  May/ may not have wings. Different anime may portray it differently. Eg, sebastian often says he is one hell of a butler (which the jap phrase is..." Watashi wa akuma de shitsuji desu kara ") Sebastian from Kuroshitsuji is an example of akuma who doesn't have wings.


Shinigami - (shi-ni-ga-mi) Deathgod or death reaper. Directly translated as death god. May or may not use a scythe and comes in many different forms, human form, reaper form, with or without wings and others.

语言都说不出的话



我有话要说, 可是说不出,也不知道该要怎样说。 日本語も,华语也好,or even English, 一样都表达不出我心里的话。 当然我的意识绝对不是告白。该怎样说好呢?反怎是心里一直憋着的话很想一下爆发出来,发泄。看的漫画大部分是华语,所以需要用华语来表达着心情。好啦好啦, 不想被说是抄人家,还是换回好了。 誰にもわからないこの気持ち。度する?大丈夫、きっと。Fate まかせて~ great...i can't understand wat i am saying now...maybe thr's a lot of typing errors...LOL eto...i'll try to update soon ...A.S.A.P!!!! byez for now >.<~
