Banana Man, Japanese Style, in Japanese

Made by: Abomagoonios

Explanation

This strip translates 2683: Bananaman, Japanese Style's dialogue, and by extension the original Garfield strip's as well, into Japanese to fit in with the Japanese advertising theme of #2683, and by extension this strip. It is difficult to discern how accurate the translation was due to most of the transcript having fallen victim to mojibake errors.

The author writes:

Once I saw the description for #2683, I knew what had to be done.

Original strip: 1990-05-15.

Transcript

Japanese Dole Banana Man: はい、それは世界にユーモアをもたらすために、ここで、私は、バナナの男です！
{Banana Man tosses some more peels on the counter before Jon}
Banana Man: ただ、周りにいくつかの皮を広げ...
{Odie slips on the peels}
Banana Man: 出来上がり！インスタント楽しいです！

Trivia

This strip's transcript was hit with mojibake errors in a later site recoding effort; the original transcript unaffected by mojibake is currently lost to the public due to this.
