I'm a bit surprised at the Japanese title for this book... It's basically a japanification of the English words, which would be "Kara to raito" in roman letters. I would have thought it would be "iro to hikari," which is an actual translation. The characters for color and light are used in the subtitle though.
ReplyDeleteHow well does the text translate, because you may have word substitutions happening in japanese.
ReplyDeleteWell The Japanese tend to think "English" words like these are hip and cool, and thanks to the education system pretty much everyone knows a little English, so I'm sure it would get the message across easily. I'm just a little surprised the translators chose that route. It makes me think they are perhaps gearing the book to a younger, hip audience in Japan.
