    Am I having a stroke?

    Hangul, Old/Middle English, Japanese/Chinese, and heavy modern English slang all in one post?

    TBH I’m capable of reading your post because of my interest in languages but I think we need a professional linguist to decipher just what the hell you mean

      You’re not, because the excerpt is from a comic romancing the Imjin War. That’s part of the latest translated chapter, 270, where a head of the demonic path is explaining dao to younglings in a tavern. Like every trope ever.

      The characters themselves would be speaking ancient Chinese, Korean, and street talk.

        I’m commenting on your post body (and title), not the panel, dude. Like are you running some sort of ARG or just some new breed of lolsorandom?

          And I am commenting you’re not having a stroke whatsoever. No linguist required to enjoy reading either comic or dao.
          Do you need someone to handhold your internet experiences?
