It was still very funny even with       the language       barrier/               This gives the original dialogue translated to English. and it is       as funny.        Only 4 chapters so far.        Hibari is the central figure but in the manga a HS boy after the       death of his mother        is brought into the strange household of a yakuza chief former       boyfriend of the       mother. Hibari is the chief's only son and is assaulted by his father       with the label       "Pervert". H is so cute that the HS boy is interested. But there are 3       lovely daughters       as well. As well as a gang of thugs that would have done Chester Gould       proud.               So if you need a giggle from the antics of yakuza fathers/sons and       daughters       have a look. Google is your friend especially if you are searching for       "Stop!! Hibari-kun! manga scanalations". Other formulations of the search       brought up too much relating to the anime.               bliss              >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>              I recall Hibari passing himself off as a girl at school and the boy is the       only one privy to the secret because he's living with Habari.              This was published in the 80s, long before terms such as "asexual" was       common so I am not sure whether Hibari was a cross-dresser or thinks that       he/she was a girl born into a boy's body.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
