Freebie: Japanese Manga Onomatopeia Mini-Library

edited December 1969 in Freebies

Greetings, Fellow 3D CG artists ! My humble freebies I present for your rendering ... pleasure or frustration, whichever is your experience with your software package.

Cut to the chase.

"Japanese Manga Onomatopeia Mini-Library" by Juniper Chew, July 2014.

A simple and non-exhaustive collection of sound effects words seen in Japanese manga (graphic novels). This is just a sampling and you should copy only the item you need for your 3D scene, otherwise it makes no sense. You have to understand what the Japanese means, in order to use these effects correctly. Sorry, I am not translating for anyone. Please enjoy using them.

Commercial renders OK; contents not for re-distribution.

    Such a cool idea! Not knowing Japanese, I must seek out an English equivalent, however.

    Actually, you could guess some of them by studying Japanese manga and seeing where the words are placed in the pictures. Thanks for your comments !

    Thanks ibr_remote, interesting idea!

    For anybody who's intrigued using the Lexilogos katakana keyboard (if you can afford to spend time matching characters) and Google translate will give you a phonetic transcription. But that's not really going to help with meaning/usage... I think I know somebody who has a stock of Naruto comics.

    Ah, one more point - the words are read Left-to-Right. I should make some Top-To-Bottom sets for people who use that style of Japanese manga renders.
