Nanoha Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 Discovery!!! Carelessly? Purposefully? Carelessly? Aim? [Goal/target?] The top and bottom sides are reversed.... [basically it's upside down] [?????? something about it's impossible for smoke to move that way] lol [yes... "lol] hah, my hilarious attempt at translation. My comments in brackets.

Salt Peanuts Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 Nanoha - you've got it mostly right. "Discovery" in this case is more like, "look what I found!" The word "Aim," for all intents and purposes, can be translated as "intentionally" or "purposefully" in this instance. The last line translates roughly, "I don't think smoke can move like that. LOL." While I speak/read/write Japanese fluently (I sure hope so, since I am Japanese), I'm not exactly the greatest translator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And thanks to everyone else except Rex for trying to help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 発見!!! Look what I found!!! うっかり? わざと?うっかり? 狙い? Unintentional? Intentional? Unintentional? Their aim? 上下が逆ですね。。。 They've got it the wrong way around, haven't they.... 煙りには無理な動きなんじゃないかな?? 笑 Surely smoke doesn't move that way, right?? Lol. So yeah, not really funny at all.
