« on: September 29 2007, 08:01 am »
im reading Vampire Doll, and one character names a flower, but tokyopop translated the name of it into literal english, so im wondering if someone can help me:

what is "little white flower" in japanese?

i need this for a fic i want to write.

Perhaps the Wikipedia article on the manga can be of help? I'm not familiar with the characters so I can't tell if the original name you're looking for is mentioned there or not. It's not a very good article by Wikipedia standards, but still.
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

 I know that the Petunias bloom at night and they could be white... and there is a flower with the common name of Moonflower with the same night-blooming ... I read they're from a Ipomoea something specie.

 What is the chapter and the page where the character is mention it?

When we love, we want to be better than we already are... and love makes us better"
