I actually signed up for that. I think it was with NASA? It looked like I was the perfect candidate by the look of their questions, except I live too far from Texas, so I don't think they're gonna pick me.

The last friend I had I turned on and ruined everything.
That is, if we're talking about online friends.
Haven't had offline friends since I was ~7 and they both moved away.

I'm curious about VN translations. Whenever a heroine speaks like pic related, do translators use Elizabeth English to capture the effect?

ITT: Objective facts that would support the argument that ZUN is a Japanese supremacist.


Remilia, the archetype European character of Gensokyo, is a huge weabo. She moved her mansion to Japan and gave her maid a very Japanese name.

Yukari is a gaijin character who gave herself a Japanese name. Even her theme song is distinctly oriental sounding, making liberal use of the pentatonic scale. She also likes wearing a Chinese dress.

Marisa, who represents a "Western-styled" magician, likes to steal things. Gaijin are stereotyped in Japan to be no-good thieves.

Kaguya is canonically one of, if not the most beautiful person in Gensokyo. Only a Japanese supremacist would say that a character with black eyes, black hair and a hime-cut is the most beautiful person. In contrast, Marisa has never once been described as beautiful or good-looking in canon, whereas the black-haired black-eyed Reimu gets plenty of compliments in official descriptions.

Kanako has an obscene powerlevel, whereas Suwako is always dismissed as a loli frog. This is because Kanako is of the pure Yamato spirit and Suwako is gaijin.
