Hello. I am from Osaka, Japan.
Would you like to buy Japanese books and DVDs from Japanese shopping sites, like amazon.co.jp if you have a help in Japanese?
I have been thinking about making an instruction website about how to buy at amazon.co.jp.
Would it be helpful for you?
Please advise me.

And the little silly girl went to Tokyo with the awesome idea in mind about how much manga she should be able to buy, 'cause in Japan they would have the largest amount of manga in the world (no [censored]) and there has to be at least some small little shelf with translated ones... NOT. Surprise. All the English manga you buy in Sweden are bought from the US, 'cause it's the americans who do the translation, not the Japaneses.

Yes, I know, I would had figured that out looong before, but I came like a quite shock when we realized that we were on the wrong continent.

Point made: I don't read Japanese. Sorry for disturbing you.

There are actually manga volumes available in the original Japanese in the store I go to. I never buy them because I can't read Japanese and I'd have to get a dictionary and translate each character and blah, blah, blah.
Basically, no from me, but other people who can actually read Japanese without getting aout a dictionary every two seconds might appreciate your idea, doggy.
