uuuuuh... but what about the kid?

let me clarify: who is the author of the book called "Roman," which inspired okane ga nai and is claimed to be based on a true story? in other words, where is this source?

let me clarify: who is the author of the book "Roman," which inspired okane ga nai and is based on true story? i'd like to know where you found this source and claim.

Cit.: "No Money, known in Japan as Okane ga Nai (お金がないっ?) is a yaoi novel and manga created by Hitoyo Shinozaki ."

Where is it written? In the novel.

Okay, now i'm confused. You said, "Yes. The Manga is based of the Roman, which is a true story."

From my understanding, you're saying that Okane ga nai, the manga, is based on a book called "Roman." You're saying Roman is a true story. So here are my questions that are still left unanswered:

a) I am wondering who is the author of "Roman," not Okane ga nai. Who is the author of Roman? You said "A Roman is a Book. :)" - which means that "Roman" is a title of the book, unless you're saying that the definition of "Roman" means "book."

b) You keep giving me Hitoyo Shinozaki as the author of "Roman." Are you saying that Roman is another name for Okane ga nai?

c) Where is your source that states Okane ga nai is based on a "true story"?

Sometimes I think you are trolling me....
I'll try to me more clear now...
A "Roman" is a Book genre, like Yaoi is a Manga genre. But this one is my bad, cause in English you use the word "Novel. So a "Roman" = "Novel".

The name of the Okane ga nai "Novel" , is also "Okane ga nai!", or at least something like this.

The Author is the same as the Manga, Hitoyo Shinozaki.

The source is the Novel itself. It is written in there "based on a true story".
And since the Manga is just a Comic adaption of the Novel, the Manga is also a true story, or "based" on a true story, whatever you like.

Could I explain it well to you now?

Where does it say a book named Roman? Please and thank you

"let me clarify: who is the author of the book "Roman," which inspired okane ga nai and is based on true story?"

You mean this?

I wanted to know is the name of the actual book "Roman" and what is the name of it's author. I couldn't find it on Wikipedia, and Google gave me a list that did not relate to the manga Okane ga Nai.

Look 2 comments above. I already wrote an answer to that.

Thanks. I now need to go and cleanse my soul from reading a yaoi I should of known better than to read since it had a ghastly cover art. ..... I need to go bath in happy yaoi to wash the blood from my eyes

Oh! "Roman" means "Novel" in your language! There's that misunderstanding. For the longest time, I thought you mean "Roman" was the title of the book, not a genre.

Also, I am not trolling you. I just couldn't get the answer that I needed, which was why I had to clarify. I also had a hunch that there was a language barrier...
