    デフォルメでシリアス漫画【パチュリーイズデッド】まとめ

    パチュリーイズデッドを1～8回全部まとめました。初めてみる方は結構なページ数になるので時間あるときにじっくり読んでくださいな。　　　●今回のこと・とりあえず今までギャグメインだったabuaの描くシリアスをよく知ってもらおうと考えて思い切って上げてみました。（一応過去にアリスのシリアス描いてはいますが）とにかくたくさんの人に読んでもらえるとうれしいです。　　　●あと今回の漫画は例大祭で新刊にもなってます。トーンもしっかり貼ってありますのでよかったらそっちをうっかり買ってもらえるとさらにうれしいです。　　　◆5/26例大祭　アバ番地【T-43a】　委託 ★メロンブックス→http://shop.melonbooks.co.jp/shop/sp_212001061599_aba_pisdead.php　　　★とらのあな→http://www.toranoana.jp/mailorder/article/04/0030/12/48/040030124843.html

    Okay...so can anyone understand what's written in that sphere? Or what language it is?

    Parts of the text are showing up on Google Translate as Romanian.

    It's impossible to tell or even guess because the fx is blocking up the entire part of the last bit of text. But, trying to translate romanian word by word with google, i think it is something about sacrificing your soul.

    The first line, guessing it "Promit sa tu:" I Promise you...
    Then, thinking its "este (something) sufletul au de mine:" it is .. the soul I have in me

    That's just my guess. There's a reason I'm not a translator.*

    Romanian language was somewhat artificially made to sound like Latin. Google could mistake Latin for Romanian. You know, every time something cryptic is being wroten, it's almost always Latin.

    that's usually so, but the orthography indicates Romanian as well. and, you know, transylvania.

    I will be with you for [...]I wonder if it isn't quoted from something. Not a lot of doujin people knowing Romanian, probably. It's too fragmentary and broad to Google easily, though.

    Promit să te

    Voi face pentru tine.
    Sa se joace cu mine.
    Eu voi fi cu tine pentru totd—

    Last word is likely to be totdeauna (forever). I'm not exactly proficient in Romanian, but the overall grammar sounds a little off to me (4th line is especially weird, shouldn't it just be "joacă-te cu mine"?), so I'll refrain from translating for now.
