Japanese for Gamers 101: Bride of the Trenchcoat へのコメント http://www.japangameloser.com/2009/04/30/japanese-for-gamers-101-bride-of-the-trenchcoat/ 日本にすんでおり、ゲーム好きで、非もて男 Mon, 19 Apr 2010 12:53:42 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 dork at large より http://www.japangameloser.com/2009/04/30/japanese-for-gamers-101-bride-of-the-trenchcoat/comment-page-1/#comment-2333 dork at large Tue, 13 Apr 2010 00:53:15 +0000 http://www.japangameloser.com/?p=140#comment-2333 I admit this comment might be a bit late, but hopefully it will be relevant and useful. If you are involved in anime/manga fandom, then you're probably aware that quite a few Boys Love animated TV series, comics, and novels have been translated. However, very few BL games have been professionally translated, and just a few others have been translated by fans. A few years ago, I was under the impression that only a few English speaking fans knew about BL games. But then I attended a panel on the topic at Anime Central, and quite a few of the fans in the room instantly recognized images from Enzai and Silver Chaos. One final note -- a few fans have already created their own BL games in English. The term "BxB" on this archive -- http://www.renai.us/category/BxB -- means "boy pursues boy."

Thanks for reading. :) I hope to get back into regular updates soon, but for now I gotta pay the bills (puts on stocking suspenders and blond wig).
