Oh Irumi ♥

[pez]

Oh Irumi (Illumi?), I have only seen you in a few episodes and you have empty eyes and no expressions and probably very wirey hair (my imagination) and you're a total freak and I know nothing about you, but I wub you so damn much. I really hope there will be more of you in the anime. I will need to read the manga even though I have seen in Shounen Jump sort of "art" it has become. Now I must get the manga. Wonder how much it'll cost me from YesAsia. *goes check*

YES! And you DO want to do fandom things. We can, like, make a fandom of three. Or possibly four if Dimmeh ever gets to it. Anyway, there's a slight problem with the names, because Togashi is teh sucks at english, but he still wrote his characters' names in 'normal' alphabet... so Illumi is Yellmi, Kurapica is Kurapikt and so on. The translators all over the world are doing their best to ignore this until the manga shoves it in their faces. >_>

Problem with names. Reminds me of Weiss Kreuz XD! Brad or Bradley, Schuldip or Schuldich or Schudig? Who cares~ I say Irumi because that's how the name is written in katakana, but Illumi looks pretty cool too...

You make it sound like the HxH fandom is pretty small O_o which'd be weird because I know the Chinese fandom is humongous.

HAHAHAHA, names. Something really amusing in this is that wherever the French translators puts an 'r', the English dubbers and scanlators will put 'll'. And other things like that. Like Killua/Kirua, Illumi/Irumi; Leorio/Leolio... It's a pain to change languages. ;_;

The thing with the Zoldiks (that too. I think the official name is Zaoldyeck. Generations of spelling your name out to everyone around? No thanks) is that they have a rather amusing way to name their children. See here because I'm too lazy to retype it here. So what's important is to be coherent with that naming system. *nods*

Also, it may not seem important to you at the moment, but Calluto (or Karuto or whatever) is a MALE. Just... yes. He is. *nods*

And the English fandom is indeed desperately small. Tine has been weeping for the lack of decent Hisoka/Illumi fics for days, I'm the same about Killua/Gon (and it's been years), and yeah. For some reason, the fandom never expanded. :/
