After months of work, chanelqueen17 has created a gorgeous scene of Alice and Oz from Pandora Hearts, using scans that didn't even feature both characters together. Even after spending so much time on matching the details of the characters to their new looks, chanelqueen17 didn't stop there and went all out on the background too! This wallpaper definitely needs to be seen!

Are you sure you want bacon. Bacon seems to be more of a man's meat. Wouldn't that betray you as a trap Aki?

Ok. I'm a huge fan of kenshin. I have almost all of the current mangas and USED to watch the show (until it went off-air and i placed my personal ban on cartoon network for it.....) but one thing still bothers me. Does oro really mean something?

I understand it's just a stupid phrase to express confusion, but does it really have a meaning that just doesn't translate to english?

soooo cofused.....erm.....i mean ororororororoo :faint:

Oro is just a sound, right? its like. . . its like. . . "umm" or "uhh" stuff like that. . .
i dont think it has any meaning. . . no secret that they all try to hide away from you. . . so chill.

An equivalent of "huh" (or lots of "ouch" when he repeats it several times). It can mean other sounds, sometimes you can hear it from other animes: "ara ara" <--- "oh, my" or "well well", can also mean "what?"

I know it really is some sound to make light of something, but is there a possibilty that it's something stupid that couldn't be translated properly from the original japanese to english?

Erm, I actually heard about what it was..
It's just some exclamation words that's being used in order to
exchange those boring ones like "ouch -->itai" or "eeeh? --> ararara"

so basically this ORO doesn't mean anything. It's just random exclamation
like (nya, nyan, bui) if you do watch Prince of Tennis. >.> there.

ORO?? It means gold in a language.. I forgot the language, sorry.. but definitely not Japanese word..
Maybe it means "Huh?" in the anime..
God knows..

Both Kenshin's name and his semi-nonsensical exclamation "oro" are tributes to Watsuki's favorite comedian, Ken Shimura. As used by Shimura and Watsuki, "oro" expresses surprise or dismay, based on the similar exclamation "ara" (generally considered feminine). As proper Japanese vocabulary, "oro" only exists as a word for lochia.
