It's either gibberish, incorrectly transcribed, or not Japanese. Or perhaps a stir-fry of all three. o_O

I would say ���@���p�C�A �́@���� vampaia no nitshi - vampire's diary. But there are other words for both "vampire" and "diary" so I could be wrong Wink

�o���p�C�A���L (Banpaia Nikki)

not gonna ask what you need it for Big Grin


���L is probably more common than ����, at least among young folks around here (check out blogs, pages, mixi etc)

V usually becomes ���� as AnimeDad wrote, but vampire is written with �o (ba)

    Or, just plain old ��. Today I was watching Fuji News, they had a story about influenza, and for "vaccine" they say "���N�`��". What a crazy language. Nut

Actually, I got the kana from the JDictionary on this site. "Vampire" is not a word I use often in Japanese Wink I just picked the wrong one.

There's probably similar phrases that essentially mean the same thing... Translations are never perfect... Smile

sometimes fan subs are done really poor.So what was said in the Drama may of been not the right translation.

I have seen lots of Drama's,Movie's and Show's with bad translations

I think so.

Like "gomen" and "sumimasen" essentially mean "I'm sorry" or "excuse me."
