Konnichiwa SkaKid0911-san!

"Neon Genesis Evangelion" is "新世紀 エヴァンゲリオン" in Kanji and Katakana. "Neon" is "新", "Genesis" is "世紀", "Evangelion" is "エヴァンゲリオン". Usually, the Japanese call only "エヴァ".

There is not Japanese word to ".hack//SIGN". But the Japanese call "ドットハック".

"Blue Gender" is "ブルー ジェンダー" in Katakana.

Yes, "Rurouni Kenshin" is Japanese "るろうに剣心". "るろうに" means a masterless samurai. "Kenshin" is Kanji and means " heart of sword"

"Trigun" is "トライガン" in Katakana.

Same here. I have all my language packs installed, but I get the famous language of Executible files instead. Maybe it's mozilla...

In IE atleast you can change the coding to Japanese. It's in the menu to the left of Favourites.

Can you read this: åäöÅÄÖ ?

Can you read this: アあ日。 ?

right click the page, goto "encoding," if you dont see japanese in the list goto "more" and you should find it there click on it and youll be able to see the kanji/kana. though you may want to change it back once you done it tends to make some english charactors look like a box
