That's incredibly specific. Sadly this is not a parody of NHK, so I'll probably skimp on the second part. The first suggestion's helpful though.

I suspect they were originally nothing more than an explanation for Kaguya, but having yukari create and purposely loose a war to prevent further needless combat/the clenching of Gensyoko was a good addition, and gave them a more legit reason to be around.

And yeah, they're kinda meant to be assholes, although you could say it's just cultural differences.

Can't I agree?

I'm not sure if I made it to the 'true' ending or not, there was a final scene listed on the walkthrough that I apparently didn't reach, or misinterpreted as part of the previous events. I was hoping someone else has made it to the true end, so I can verify. But, it seems no one's there yet, or experiencing the sames things I did.

As for their other works, they sound genuinely interesting, but I might need some anti-depressants after all of that..

Well, that depends on what you consider getting 'fucked over'. (more spoiler) She does at least 'live', depending on what route you take

Lost post? Fitting captcha to go with: you'll afaile

For more fun tidbits:

Japan had it's own native spoken language before China gave them kanji. They spent the next ~400 years bashing their spoken language with the Chinese written language until they reached something similar to Japanese today. (So, the idea of giving kanji to foreign 'words' isn't really new, it's kinda how it started).
However, before that, they would actually write in Chinese, and then 'mark' the sentence based on how it should be read in Japanese (because Japanese is SOV and Chinese is SVO like English). So, in order to read a document, you'd have to be fluent in both written Chinese and spoken Japanese.
Confusing as FUCK.

Also, Japan = じっぽん and is the Chinese pronunciation of 日本 (Nippon or Nihon depending on your pronunciation choice).

But, it does seem ZUN has some understanding of English, or is very good with a translator, because some of the English titles are disconnected from their Japanese counterparts yet still make sense in English.
