help please !! i dont understand !

so ive been reading highschool of the dead, but there are some terms i dont understand such as "oni-chan" (what alice calls the main character) and chapter 12 page 45 where she asks to not to be called "senpai" and there is some kind of conflict. im confused, please help.

Senpai:(Japanese)An Upperclassman. Used in relation to fellow classmates of higher level or age. It can be used like -chan or -san as well as by itseld. I.E.: "Urameshi-senpai" or just "senpai"

oniichan: the Japanese word for "older brother"

thank you very much !

Senpai is often used when addressing a teacher isn't it?

pretty sure that's sensei (sp).

senpai is mostly used on to address ur upperclassmen or ur seniors in watever u are, got the gist of it ?

Dont bother with High School of the Dead, nobody is scannlating it anymore. At least thats how it was the last time I checked

Where did you hear/read this?

As far as i know [XLG] is still on the job, only they've switched to full volume releases.

Ah haha, yah. I mixs those to up alot :oops:

oni-chan: brother, senpai:master, teacher

thanks to all you translaters :) well i finished hs of the dead, very good another thing in there worth trnaslatingfor ppl like me is onee-chan, just kinda assumed it ment older sister. thanks again! also when the next volume comes out, do you think it will be on that site onemanga.com ? is there somewhere i can order the manga online in english ?

actully i have another question for you guys too that i forgot to ask earlier, what is the diffrence between chan, san, kun, and whatever else there is ?

You could check an online dictionary.

lol true but what fun is that, then i would have no interaction with all of you

san is very formal like strangers who know each others name
kun is more like close friend to fam or w/e
and chan i tend to only see when the guys use it on the girls so i think that's what thats for but i think im wrong..
