I'm watching Haibane Renmei.

Did it ever occur to you weeaboos, that rén mëi could be read in chinese as "beautiful people" while hai ba ne could be understood as "great number of people close to light". :3

fascinating

Except it's not in Chinese, so that thought is irrelevant.

how would you know? sure, writing is in kanji so it differs but it's just way too convinient to dismiss that name of that anime comes from chinese, don't you think?

on top of that, in japanese the title of show means nothing.

that + fitting title in chinese = I'm right

>> No.4277641

They do a lot of alternate kanji reading in that game, so it's probably intentional.

Enjoy your great show btw.

Stop pulling things from your ass. Renmei is grammatically wrong and I can't think of how do you write haibane in your psuedo-Chinese.

sure ren mei is backwards, but you could read it all backwards so that it would mean literally "beautiful people - bright light close to many people"

even if it did it would be nonsensical

it's what it means
Haibane: charcoal feathers
renmei- federation
just that easy and it makes sense because it's basically people with charcoal colored wings part of a greater federation of them

Just to be pedantic, it's not charcoal, it's ash (or simply grey). ABe apparently mixed up 灰 and 炭 when translating the title to English.

There was a weeaboo I knew who thought that Kanji were exclusively Japanese and would always bitch at people who told him it was Chinese. I kept silent since I'd rather let him find out for himself.

I think he took a class in moonspeak somewhere down the line, must have been a real eye-opener.
