Note: We are nowhere near endgame. We're not even at the midpoint yet.

Talking about SO, seens one more dev fell to the pleasures of underage flesh, although dev is a very strong word in this case, makes one glad Selebus is just a narcisistic prick and not a minor diddler.

Oh yeah, i threw SO right in the bin and scrubbed my computer of everything related to it after the news dropped. I'd hate to do the same for LiL but if it turned out Selly was also a fucking predator of minors i'd have to throw all my LiL shit out too. Fiction is fiction and that's where it fucking belongs.

Oh sorry. They look like the cards used in Koikatsu game so I thought they were add ins, never mind
Speaking of pronunciation. We definitely have a difference in the name Uta. How do you pronounce it?

I just pronounce it "You-Tuh.". Then again, I also thought Io's name was Lo at one point, so I don't have the best track record when it comes to names in this game.

It's "Oo-Ta" or "Oo-Da"; thinking with Spanish when attempting hers; or the "ooo I see", that ooo.
Since everyone but Molly is Japanese, pronouncing their names should follow Japanese language standards. NOTE: NOT a native Japanese speaker, only know enough to be dangerous if I were instructing kindergartners lol.
Vowels are the key to each sound in Japanese, and learning what the vowels sound like should be a big assist to guide your pronunciation. Consonants (with the exception of "n" which can be a stand-alone sound in Japanese) are used with a vowel. Plus there are a few English/Roman letters not used in Japanese (like "L", though "R" sounds like a slightly rolled combination of both L and R).
a= ah
e= eh (channel your inner Canadian!!!)
i= ee
o=oh
u= oo
So Io would be "ee-oh", Uta would be "oo-tah", Rin would be "leen/reen", Ami would be "ah-mee", Ayane would be "ah-yah-neh", etc.
Japanese also does not have emphasized/strong syllables in their multiple syllable words so each sound/syllable should be sounded with similar inflection throughout the word (i.e. Ayane would be "ah-yah-ne" and not "ah-YAH-ne" or "ah-yah-NE").
Here ends my first-grade level of Japanese grammar lesson. :duncecap:

This conversation about language reminded me that Otoha apparently forgot that they have been speaking Japanese:
4th wall break? Or actual characterization? The world may never know.

All correct, though it seems Selebus himself does not pronounce them in japanese. I mean:

Selly didn't break the fourth wall, he long ago glassed it with nuclear armageddon. No stone remains standing atop another, a genocide of all fourth walls that the biblical apocalypse couldn't match. Moments like this are merely an echo of the undying supernovae of hatred burning in his heart for all things wall.

Why people care so much about their actual name pronunciation? Just use the one you used in your mind and be happy. Even if you call Io as Lo xD

Hmmm, so if Uta is sweet, does that make them Sweet and Lo?

Since facepalms are used as 'you fucking suck and fuck you' reactions on this forum, i've had to settle for a sad reaction, but really, that pun deserved a facepalm and a groan...
This is an interesting thing by the way, because in Russian we pronounce You-ta.
And we have a whole dispute all the time about the sounds of Japanese, since there is a Polivanov system. But we also often use transcription of English sounds into Japanese words.
By the way, unhappy Molly, no one can pronounce her name properly. Morry will turn out, haha

i didnt mean endgame in an esoteric sense. i just meant literally the end portion of the content currently available (many hours away from the beginning. where you would have to return to if you screwed up a choice in most games)
yeah i have it in my list. i went through the entire list of missable events on the wiki so if im missing any, they arent on the wiki
