So I was looking through Chapter 3 again and this line’s typically pretty unremarkable. Tube yogurt is like Go-Gurt or something and it’s a fun way to eat yogurt that Tenna’s probably sure kids would like. Pretty sweet!

And then I looked at the Japanese version and the line is slightly different.

Tenna literally saying “EXCITI〜NG!” out loud and calling Mike 「マイクく〜ん！」 aside real quick (though those are cute), this isn’t the word for tube yogurt because that’s literally チューブヨーグルト. It’s also specifically in quotes. So what is it?

From what I can find this appears to be a play on 「チャオちゅ〜る」 which is denoted in quotes since it’s a brand product ! ニャ (Nya) and ニャオ (Nyao) are onomatopoeias for cats, and even the 〜 (this elongated tilde is called the wave dash in Japanese btw!) used is similar to this product while being different from the typical chōonpu they use to elongate sounds (ー).

(The wave dash is used when Tenna calls Mike’s name as well but this is specifically because he's adding a bit of a trill to his voice.)

If you can read what I wrote or looked it up, you’ll find that this is Ciao Churu. Does Churu sound familiar?

THEY’RE CAT TUBE TREATS.

This isn’t odd for the Mikes to have on hand because they have 7293792 cats and Pluey. But this also means

1) Tenna knows they have Churus on hand instead of regular snacks and just accepts it

2) Tenna asks Mike to give Susie a cat treat thinking this is a normal thing for a kid to eat and they will like it

3) Susie devours that whole thing and nobody comments on it

Anyway that’s a really funny Chapter 3 tidbit so have fun with this info!

so you just wanna post random UTDR tweets here? or tweets about obscure UTDR bits? if it's the latter, i feel like that's totally within the blog theme. would be nice if you could transcribe the screenshots that are 99-100% text though...

It depends! For the most part, it would be cool facts I see or occasionally something funny, and I'll make sure to try and write alt text for all of them!!

I've been somewhat conflicted on just posting UTDR related tweets here, as I feel like it's kind of just recycling content? At the same time, however, a lot of people here don't use Twitter and wouldn't see these posts anyway.. what do you think?

[obscuretobyfox]

white people don't even ask for the blunt anymore they just stare at you like this

Any chance you would be willing to tag Toby's face if you post it? He's been so secretive about it and it mirrors my experience with the internet a lot and I want to respect his wishes that like... If he wants to be perceived as a funny lil dog I don't rly want to memorize what he looks like irl, y'know? Bc I really relate to that feeling. But I rly love ur blog so I don't wanna unfollow or anything just itd be nice to be able to filter it.

I'm trying my best to not post anything that is clearly meant to be hidden or too personal, Toby has shown his face as recently as 2023 (In EARTHBOUND, USA) so I've considered his appearance as silly dog to be more of a preference instead of an indication he's uncomfortable with his face being shown at all! However, I understand your concern, so I will be tagging all future posts that have Toby's face in it as #toby fox face in case anyone is uncomfortable with seeing it <3!
