Suzummiya-sanそうか？
Is that so?　

面白いよ・・・・
That's interesting...


Kanji:

面白い - omoshiro(i) - interesting, amusing


EDIT: Fix'd.
Aikido calls, gotta go...

面白いだよ->面白いよ* or 面白いですよ (since you used a polite form in the first line); don't use だ after い adjectives.

Should I use そうか？ then? I can't make questions with だ, but I don't want to be too polite either (this time).

[richvh]

You could use そうか？, but そうなの？ might be more appropriate (I haven't watched that anime, so don't know what kind of language she uses.)

Thread necromancy is amazing thing, isn't it? Well anyhoo, let's get down to business...



"Today good weather is because...game play"
"Since today is good weather...I'll go play (some computer) games."

Cute.

You might need to use na with node though.
今日はいい天気なので、

[katafei]

久しぶりですね。。。
Hi Sauna addict..., your manga made me laugh.
But I wonder if ですね wouldn't be more naturally than　ですので
？

I thougth it was only with non-conjugated nouns and na-adjectives. Can someone confirm this?

ので is needed to give a reason for the second sentence.

....I think.

[tanuki]

I don't think one would talk to himself using masu-forms. Plain speech should be appropiate.

[leergierig]

Nice manga, Sauna addict.

I don't want to be nitpicky, but isn't there a dakuten missing in your manga? I think it should be ゲーム　and not ケーム.

Anyways, keep up the good work!

[Yudan Taiteki]

いい天気ですので is used in Japanese, but it's extremely polite. It's at a higher level of politeness than using -masu forms at the end of sentences. いい天気なので works fine there.

[Yudan Taiteki]

でてた is a shortened form of 出ていた, not 出てきた.

I think this thread is supposed to be about people drawing manga, but maybe either one is OK.

[xhilononi234]

Why is となり used? I thought that it could only be used by things that are similar, unless by ''toilet'' you mean "bathroom." In that case, I get it becase the music room and bathroom are both rooms (presumably) in the same building.

[Sairana]

unless by ''toilet'' you mean "bathroom."

トイレ is exactly that. Took me a while to realize you were responding to the very first post in this 4-page thread, though.

[Candy-Stars]

I hope it is okay that I am posting my own comic in this?
I tried to make it very simple. Please let me know if I made any mistakes. Thank you very much.


Situation: Two friends are together. The girl is upset about something and the boy is concerned.

Boy:
Doshita no?
"What is wrong?"

Girl:
Hah---
