Hi there! I'm new here, and i'm currently in the process of making my own comic strip which i hope to eventually turn into a manga. I'm a beginner in the Japanese language, and as such i'm pretty clueless about most things.. Eventually I hope to learn Japanese well enough so I can make my comic/manga available to people of Japan too ^_^; (A crazy dream, I know :p)

Anyways, onto the question.... Basically, I want to call my comic/manga "The Diary of a Procrastinator" as the protagonist is extremely lazy, and it documents his daily life ^_^;.. I tried to come up with the Japanese equivilent of this title, but i'm sure what I settled on is completley wrong.. So please, could someone give me the correct Japanese (with kanji if at all possible) for "The Diary of a Procrastinator".

My version was: "GuzuGuzu Suru no Nikki"

Konnichiwa Maelstrom-san!

Welcome and Hajimemashite. Please enjoy the forum!:wave:

"The Diary" is "日記:nikki".
"of" is "の:no".
"a Procrastinator" is "怠け者:namakemono" or "のろまさん:noroma-san".

"The Diary of a Procrastinator" is "怠け者の日記:Namakemono no Nikki" in Japanese. :cool:
