   	If I have to learn Japanese I would first have   
   to spend a good deal of cash on text books which I would rather spend on   
   translated manga.   
   	I have gotten about half the books I need to pursue the   
   study of Japanese but I could drop dead before I would have the   
   money to spend on the rest.
