them are all lovely 2d ladies. ^^
I learned Japanese from the classes I took in college, however without any practice my Nihonggo is starting to deteriorate.
about books, have you started reading any harry potter books? ^^ heard that the golden compass series were good as well. these are probably considered children's book but still a good read. ^^

another book I'd like to recommend is "the Alchemist" by Paolo Coelho. if you enjoy books like "Jonathan Livingstone Seagull" and "the Little Prince" you might like this one. makes for a good little light reading while pondering in the john. ^^;

Oh nice. I thought "The Alquimist" was pretty nice even though I really don't enjoy novels (Had to read a book for school...).

I read the portuguese version of course, so don't know how the english adaptation would be like, but do recommend.

I love scanlators! I can download the manga right here, and do it guilt free cause I know the publisher will never send it to India :).

A brilliant book that I read a loong time ago is 'The Remains Of The Day' - By Kazuo Ishiguro. Was feeling a bit japanophilic at the time, so saw the name and picked it up. Plus, it didn't hurt that this one had won the Booker prize :).

Another informative piece, Danny, Thank You. It's really quite well drawn! I haven't managed to read/watch To-Love-Ru but, viewing the pics has motivated me to do so. 

I tend to pick up terms from anime, learn how to spell and write them from RAW manga and increase my vocabulary from music and reading. I decided to learn Hiragana first, not sure if it's the recommended step but, it's going well.

I haven't read any good 'books' lately but, when I do, I'll recommend one to you :)

I hate to complain but I hate sites like that that show a security code that I can hardly read. And when you put a tiny picture of different cats infused with the lettering its nearly impossibly for me to figure out which letters and how many to input, and that have the right cat. Sorry about my rant, it was just a little frustrating.

Oh yeah Danny and co, if you still wanted more of his stuff.  He did two eroges in the past, one in 2001, and one in 2003, both for the same company.

The one from 2003 was called OrangePocket, you can find the CG rip here:
http://www.mediafire.com/?7dzxyzowr1q

I don't have a link for the one from 2001, but you can see the getchu page for it here:
http://www.getchu.com/soft.phtml?id=4540

His style was a little more generic back then, but you can still see his style in the one from 2003.

Hope you guys enjoy it.

So the artist DOES do H-Manga.

Might be worth a look then. Highschool of the dead was also done by an H-manga artist and that's a really fun read.

There's a difference, I don't think Inazuma ever did professional h-manga.  I believe all of his stuff were self published doujins in the past.

I learnt Japanese at university, and found it quite easy and enjoyable. However, it was all quite formal (lotsa desu), and I learn most slang from watching Ranma 1/2 subtitled. It's been too long since I've needed to use it, so I don't recall how to read. Will have to recap someday.

You can try out "Tuesday With Morrie".

It is kinda soft, but if u are into the soft spot, like me, u will like it. It's about a true story of a professor Name Morrie, who is slowly dying.

I'll leave the rest to you :)

Definately on my must get list.  ^_^

As for Japanese, I learned it from my mother, forgot it when we both started studying English, and got back into learning it when we moved back to Japan.  The relearning happened because I saw Hokutou no Ken and Choushinsei Flashman, and I wanted to know what they were saying.  Taught myself how to read, too, via Jump comics (especially Bastard!).  Since then, it's been classes and self-study.  ^_^

I recommend Bernard Cornwell. He is by far my favourite author. Basically he has a huge load of historical novels, usually based around some tough guy fighting battles and winning maidens, yet exceedingly well written and not boring for an instant. Whereas in many books you have to read a while to get glued, here I'm stuck from the first page onwards.

Lately I've been reading a Sherlock Holmes book I got from the Harajuku library, but that's just because I love all the quaint Englishness.

I think the only thing which could get me into mangas would be living in Japan ... geting mangas here... well it's more of a hassle then anything and it's old stuff too.
Geting them online... hmm nah, i don't like to reach much comics on my screens. Applegeeks is the big excuse, but it's only one strip once in a time and not a complete comic i have to dig truh.
As for the phrases, anime does most of it, doramas too.
It started with me being in a japanese EverQuest guild 10 years ago though.
Their english was rather bad and in guildchat it was only japanese, but one fellow did teach me most of the important phrases and i still recall them today.
The first was: w~ (lol) XD

Try some good Science Fiction:

Diaspora by Greg Egan
Pushing Ice by Alastair Reynolds
Vacuum Diagrams by Stephen Baxter

(Most of their other books are good too, especially Reynold's Revelations Space series.)

Short SF is good too. You can't beat the yearly best short SF collection edited by Gardner Dozois.

Since your manga posts that I know of have only been about cute-some manga, do you read shonen manga like D.Gray-man, Bleach, Naruto, Hajime no Ippo and such? ^^

First discovered Hiromitsu Takeda in Comic Megastore H 11-2007, which is still my favourite of all his hworks. After that I gathered all the things of his I could, I eventually stumbled onto Maken-ki too (which is now being scanlated by Hidoi-translations btw) which is basically a collection of all the different looking girls from his previous hentai works (in terms of character designs that is). So, if you like a particular girl's appearance in Maken-ki, it's almost certain there's an earlier hmanga story with a near identical looking girl in it by him too :p

Don't have links atm but some of his previous works are:

Doujins (under circle name "Shinjukai" or "Shinjugai" seen it typed both ways and since I can't read japanese not sure which is correct):
Mamatama 1-3 (eyeshield 21)
Ou-tama King Of Soul (Fate/stay night)
Sakitama (Arcana Heart)

Comic Megastore H 11-2007, 10-2007, 8-2007, 7-2007, 6-2007, 12-2006, 3-2008, 5-2008

Damn that manga looks good. Should really start reading, but as I spend all my time downloading anime, I've never taken the time to find the best manga channels. Plus I hate reading stuff off monitors; whish e-paper would become affordable, then I'd convert immediately. So to answer the question: anime.

Hmmm, looks like another to add to the "read it" list...

As for reading reccomendations.

Well, Terry Pratchett is always fun and good for a laugh.  Fantasy for those who thought they didn't like fantasy.  Sort of Monty Python-esque I guess, or in the same vein as the Hitch Hiker's Guide.

Matthew Reilly's an Australian author who does some sweet action airport fiction.  Blast through a novel in a day or two easy.  One of his books "Ice Station" was also at one point apparently being made into a manga.  If anyone's seen it I'd be interested to know what it's like.

If you're in for something heavier, David Weber's got some great space-opera style Sci-Fi.  I could highly reccomend the Honor Harrington series.  Exciting and
