DGM Fanbook Personality Quiz (Sorta) Translations

[arivess.livejournal.com]

So a bunch of us went to AnimeNEXT and spent the Monday after the con scouring New York for the DGM fanbook, because there were practically none at the con. I think we bought every copy in New York, too. *coughs*

(For those who were at the con and wondering who I am? I was the really short Allen who kept trying to steal Mugen. Maybe better remembered as Sunday's skirt!Allen who chased Cross around with a gun. >.>)

Anyway, point is, I made a billion people take the personality quiz in it, so I've practically translated all the questions anyway, so thought I might as well do the rest and share them here.

Just a note: I don't know Japanese, so I dunno if I got everything right, and the wording is... definitely not accurate, since I could only understand the gist of things. Also, the result descriptions are too wordy, so I didn't translate those, sorry! =D; Man, I hope no one comes up to me going, "HEY, YOU GOT IT ALL WRONG."

Haha I got Miranda XD

[rii-namuras.livejournal.com]

(akgjei yay I got Miranda. <3 )

(AND. This is available to buy in America outside of cons even if it's in Japanese? It sounded like you meant that... "spent the Monday after the con scouring New York for the DGM fanbook, because there were practically none at the con." I live in Hong Kong, so I guess it doesn't matter, but...)

(I actually looked for it while I was in Japan last week, but I couldn't find it. D: It was a school trip, though, so I didn't get to shop much.)

[arivess.livejournal.com]

As far as I know, yeah, you can get it in... well, we went to Japanese bookstores. But I think some manga/comic stores would have it too...

[rii-namuras.livejournal.com]

(Aw, we don't have any Japanese bookstores here, despite our proximity to Japan. I guess I'll have to see if I can order it or something, shipping from Japan isn't too bad if I buy in bulk.)

[arivess.livejournal.com]

G'luck finding it!

[rii-namuras.livejournal.com]

[arivess.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it felt like everyone was Allen. @_@

I was... umm... I was normal!Allen. Without a uniform. And probably the shortest one? XD That was for Friday. Was Road for Saturday for a few hours, before changing (OUTSIDE O_O) into Joshua (WEWY). And was skirt!Allen for Sunday because my chest hurt and it was too hot to wear pants. >.>

[arivess.livejournal.com]

You should! It's fun.

Chestbinding hurts, though.

I think it was only because of question ten. It left me indecisive...

However, thank you for the translations! I enjoyed this.

[kurotsukiyomi.livejournal.com]

Yays! Got Kanda <3

[ryuukari.livejournal.com]

There were some choices that I was like, "But I'd do either depending on what mood I was in at the time...," or "That could work a number of ways and you could accomplish both by doing this one, but only one thing by doing this one... what?" so I followed a few paths that I would have followed and got:

Kanda (1-A, 2-A, 5-A, 10-B = Kanda)
Lavi (1-A, 2-A, 5-C, 15-B = Lavi)
Miranda (1-B, 3-C, 9-B, 14-C, 16-C, 17-A = Miranda)
Krory (1-B, 3-C, 9-B, 14-C, 16-A = Krory)

Krory and Miranda are like... anti-Kandas or something. Uh?

Yay for bipolar?

[rosi-crucian.livejournal.com]
