Right..
I have no idea about all the manga, Cosplay, Hentai. Anime, etc. Stuff.
Do the above words have an association within all these industries, or is it all totally seperate?
I believe that the word "hentai", means pervert. Is this correct?
Wear does Hentai come into it all?
Is Anime, Manga, Hentai, or only one?
Does anyone really know why the "Hentai" part exists?
I presume "Cosplay" means Costume Play?
I've noticed the galleries, and some dressers do look rather saucy, under or over age, no idea.
I've also recently posted a reply on a different thread in regards to thickly paged two colour comic style magazines that I often saw passengers on trains flipping through.
Does anyone know what the style of these magazines are called?
I do have one "style" magazine in black and white from Japan as a souvenir so it would be interesting to get an understanding of all the terminology.
I also have a few prototype characters which were the first made at the companies before mass production. The workmanship is fantastic.
What are these vinyl type characters called?
