Tonakai StudioTonakai Anime & Manga

Konnichiwa, welcome, välkommen

Welcome to Tonakai Anime & Manga - or Tonakai Anime for short - my very personal section for manga and anime. Currently it consists of my short personal reviews on the things I have read and watched, an overview of Ranma 1/2 and Inu Yasha manga editions, and a special page called Duo Maxwell Trilingual (the background for that one is that I suddenly realized that my favorite quote differed in its English and French versions and I just had to find out which one were closest to the original). Oh, and if you are here looking for stuff to download - tough luck. There is nothing here except for the occasional pictures. While I won't condemn you for downloading stuff for free, I won't contribute to it either.

(The Swedish version of Tonakai Anime is a tad bigger, as it includes some pages on specific manga and anime series. Someday I might translate them, but right now I feel there's enough sites in English as it is.)

There will be more contents here. Sometime. Hopefully in a not too distant future! ^_~
