Japanese Words
Hotaru Tomoe

This page is where you'll find the meanings to random Japanese words that we here in the anime and others we don't and we're just curious about what they mean.
Note, the words on this site came from a Japanese-English, English-Japanese Dictionary so these words and their meanings are accurately correct. If there are any more
words you want to know about that aren't on here, just email me and I'll reply back with the meaning of the word you wanted to know. If I can think of anymore words that
need to be in the columns, I put them in here. But for right now, these are all the words for right now. I hope these some of these words cure your curiosity. Enjoy! ^_^
