Dwight, you should KNOW anime and manga aren’t the same thing! Hilarious blog, though. I’d be pretty upset if I left the bookstore with Japanese octopus porn, but of course the only sensible thing to do is read it, right?

LL, I never thought of it that way! I guess I’m guilty in that respect as well. I don’t draw, but I refer to my friend’s drawings as anime characters rather than manga characters.

Dwight’s reasoning is legendary in the sense that no one else thinks the way he does.

JonathanPM, I’m gonna have to disagree with you here. I’ve heard plenty of people mistakenly call manga “anime” because they don’t realize that “anime” refers only to Japanese animation (and not graphic novels/comics).

For example, I’ve had people look at my drawings and ask, “Oh, you draw anime?” (Which, of course, I don’t. I draw manga.)

Anyway, very amusing blog, as always. It comforts me that tentacle rape disturbs Dwight as much as it disturbs me. (Although, it disturbs us for different reasons, it seems. Dwight seems to be very preoccupied with the tarnished public image of octopi.)

Well, I myself am sort of an expert in anime and manga, but not hentai, so I don’t know about that “shokushu goukan” part…Hentai truly is disgusting!

Anyway, he says that manga is commonly known as anime in America, but that isn’t true. That mistake never happens! Manga may be mistaken for comics (which essentially, it is, but people who are manga maniacs get upset when people call their manga a comic book) and anime may be mistaken for cartoons (ditto), but it’s never mistaken for one or the other.

Dwight says that Ranma 1/2 is his favorite manga, so I’ll forgive this small confusion.

I know nothing about manga, so does anyone know if the terms he used in the blog are correct?

I would love to hear a conversation between Dwight & Jim using Schrutanese. They should work that into the show. :)

Oh, WOW! I know what I’m going to be spending my long weekend doing. I will be learning Schrutanese.

Dwight mentions that he “won’t be returning to fill up at Bewick’s anytime soon.” Bewick’s is an independent family-owned gas station in Dunmore, Pa, right next to Scranton. I grew up a few blocks from Bewick’s, which is also a few blocks from Cugino’s Pizza. Is it any wonder that I love “The Office?”

The only thing dumber than an animal named after a weather condition would be an actor named after a weather condition. Oh wait.

Is it weird that I just read that as “Schrute Spice”? But seriously, how frightening would that be? SCHRUTE SPICE!!
