Hey everyone.

Does anyone have any examples of books which are printed in both Japanese and English?

I had some copies of Snoopy that were like that...

I am especially interested in books that were originally in Japanese, but have been made bilingual.

Thanks for any help!

Translated or full bilingual? You can get things like textbooks and practice books that are bilingual or comics (manga) etc.

Full bilingual.

What is the name of the company that publishes those manga? I have seen them around but can't recall where...

Any other bilingual books other than manga available?

Probably loads of them. I have a few myself in the Kodansha line called "Bilingual books" on different aspects of Japanese culture as well as some older classics that may not still be in print. Have you checked around in bookstores (esp used for the rarer ones) or online much at all ?

Kodansha publishes bilingual books (though not many IMO). The last bilingual book I bought was:

Bushido by Nitobe Inazo (Kodansha Bilingual Books)

Hope this helps.
