Good.Given that Bubbles is, unsurprisingly, on yet another long term sabbatical, I doubt Takahiro is gonna get that redemption arc anytime soon, If ever.
Maybe this time they will get tired of Bubbles and give Takahiro to another

More likely if that happens, Takahiro will be considered "feature complete" and get dropped.Good.

Still better then what Bubbles has planned.More likely if that happens, Takahiro will be considered "feature complete" and get dropped.
Is that where Takahiro basically just impregnates Asami and makes everything betterStill better then what Bubbles has planned.
Fixed it for you.Is that where Takahiro basically just impregnates Asami
No, no that is definitely not how you nickname Miyuki.Wait, I literally just realized that Mai’s real name is Miyuki.
I am… not sure that’s the kind of nickname Japanese people would use? Like, it’s just a completely different name. It doesn’t even sound similar, besides the initial M. (It’s like if a an American guy named “Jonathan” had the nickname “Scott” or something.)
I think a more typical nickname would be Mii-chan or maybe Miyu-chan—though I’m less convinced, because just “Miyu” is also a different, real name—but even then, I believe that in Japanese culture nicknames are almost exclusively for family and childhood friends; you have to be pretty damn close to someone for them to even let you call them by their given name, instead of their surname or a title. I can get why a game like this would simplify things a bit and just refer to everyone by their given name, but using nicknames American-style like this does go against that “glorious Nippon steel” vibe Tobs is going for LOL.
Side-note: the Japanese had a culture of name-swapping—that is to say, changing one’s name upon hitting certain milestones in life (becoming an adult, starting a new career, receiving a title, etc.)—but in that case Miyuki would just go by “Mai”—she wouldn’t do any of that American “My name is John Fergusson, but you can call me Scotty *wink*.” (Also, as far as I know, people who did this generally preserved one element of their old name in their new one; so upon becoming a priestess, for instance, Miyuki might swap her name to “Misora”, or “Yukiko”; but “Mai” is kind of random.
Even then, Japanese nicknames respect syllable boundaries with regards to clipping. So while Mai might seem like an OK clipping of Maya to an American, to a Japanese it’s Ma-ya, and both ma and ya are indivisible. (Likewise, to a Japanese, the name “Mai” can be split into Ma-i, with two “syllables”, unlike the English pronunciation.) The expected nickname here would be Maa-chan.No, no that is definitely not how you nickname Miyuki.
I can see Mai for "Maya" but Miyuki is "Miyu" or "Yuki"
There’s still some logic to it there, though: Russian diminutives are generally made by taking the accented syllable in a name and adding a diminutive suffix. For example “Sasha” takes the sa from a-lik-SA-ndr and adds -sha. There’s nothing linking “Mai” and “Miyuki” besides the fact that they incidentally both start with M.You know who would do that? The Russian. Nicholas become Kolya, etc.
Of fucking course it’s a onetime event for no fucking reason LMAO.Very good news gentlemen
Hey at least with TOBS' writing, the quantity will make up for it.Ok
I was wrong BIG TIME but why does it have to be a one-time event....

Well, Tobs wrote Kohaku in the first place, so who else?Ok

Well, for one, he's still relatively new. Notice that Hotaru also hasn't gotten many mentions.I am surprised that Tetsuya seems to mostly be ignored when talking about the Kitsunes, is it because he was written by Jstar and not by the usual suspects?
Hell yeah! More Nakano fanfic is always great lolScrew it, I am on it.
