ぐんせいせいめいをへだつそのはっぴょうは
gunseisei mei wo hedatsu sono happyou wa

gimon datta
problems*.
(*Note: The word here means "problem, doubt, question." I think the description is saying that the baby would look at others and see them as the same as everything else in the world: something that existed as his property. Therefore those that gave him nothing were confusing, were question marks, and he harbored doubts and suspicions about them as a result.)

I am so fed up with this summer heat☀️🥵🔥But according to the long-term weather forecast, the extremely hot days will still continue for a while… ahhh, What the heck!!!
Nico is the only one in our pack who is always in good spirits✨🐶✨Awww… it's wonderful to be young!!🐾🐾
@mayoigotokurousagi asked for a few more of the home screen dialogues I liked from a couple of characters, so here's Leo! Also included are the Japanese versions of the text for this one.
I LOVE HIM HE'S SUCH A LITTLE SHIT. . . . Once again this is nearly all of them because this mfer has such personality lmao his also go with a few other characters', so there's i think one for Romeo and two or three for Sho in there too.
Also as a warning. . .i got a little horny in my commentary for some of these. But it's not my fault, Leo's the one who's saying things like that lol
One of the default lines you can get at any time, without any affinity:
Hey Honor Roll!
...Don't make that face at me. I'm being totally genuine right now.
ね、特待生サマ♡
……なにその顔。別になんも企んでないよ
We were deprived of a cute heart in his localized text to emphasize how saccharine he was being. How dare they.
Affinity 1:
"Ugh, I'm so tired...
I'm done with these classes already. I'll just show up for tests and skip the rest."
は~……ねむ……
なんか怪異の授業も飽きたし、テスト以外もう出んのやめよ……
Affinity 2:
"I'm starving!
Huh? Where'd Sho go?
I swear he was here a second ago... Whatever. I'll make that NPC go buy something for me."
お腹空いた~。
あれ、翔ちゃんは?ここにいると思ったんだけど……
ま、いっか。モブ女に購買行かせよ
Affinity 3;
"That fucking himbo left me behind again..."
あのポンコツ朴念仁……またオレのこと置いて行きやがって
Affinity 4:
"Right now? I'm programming an app.
I'm not doing anything that complex, just making an ordering system."
今? アプリのプログラミング中。
別にそんな難しいことしてないよ。オーダーシステム作ってるだけ~
Important to note, this is Sho's Affinity 7 line:
"Nice, got an order. More demand than I thought.
Getting Leo to make this app was a good call."
お、出前の予約が入ったわ……思ったより需要あってよ。
玲音に予約アプリ作らせたの正解だったな
So he made Sho an app for his food truck! Probably not for free of course--
Affinity 5:
"Ugh... Cap smashed my woofer. I was just playing music in the Pit since we can't go clubbing..."
だっる……クラブ行けない代わりに地下で音楽流してたら、寮長サマにウーハーぶっ壊されたんだけど……
That was kinda mean on Alan's part haha
Affinity 7:
"Hey, over here.
Give this tabloid to that national treasure wannabe in front of the food truck. Just do it!"
キミ、こっちこっち。
あのキッチンカーの前にいる国宝気取りに、この週刊誌渡してきて。いいから早く!
My guy does not like Subaru huh lmao
Affinity 8:
"Hey, Cap, could you open this bottle for me?
Do it yourself? I can't, that's why I'm—
hey! Where are you going?!
ねぇ寮長サマ~、このペットボトルの蓋開けて~♡
いや、無理だから頼んで……
ちょっとどこ行くの!?
Leo really said 'i need a big strong man in my life' and Alan said 'good luck becoming one' kekw
Affinity 10:
"This pillow mist? I only bought it because it was trending, but it's better than I thought it'd be. Ro-Ro's hooked on it too."
あ、この寝香水? バズってるから買ったんだけど、意外とよくてさ。ロミサマもハマってるみたいよ?
Romeo's Affinity 8 line references this:
"You're smelling the bedtime fragrance I bought from Kurossa earlier. He has a good eye, so I often ask him to pick things out for me."
この香り? さっきクロッサから買った寝香水だよ。あいつセンスいいから、よく見繕ってもらうわけ
"Kurossa" obviously being from "Kurosawa", Leo's surname. These two became fast friends, huh. Maybe they already knew each other from social media, since Romeo has an Instragram too. I bet they take the prettiest selfies.
Affinity 11(between 5am and 11am):
"Night, then.
What? I haven't slept yet. Unlike you, I actually have shit to do."
じゃ、おやすみ~……
なに? 今から寝るんだけど。オレ、キミと違って忙しいの
Affinity 12:
"Why is this place so overrun with fucking losers?! My eardrums are going to burst!!
...I'm going back to the garage to play with Cap."
どこいても雑魚どもがうっさい!!この学園、マジどうなってんの!?
……ガレージ戻って寮長サマで遊ぼ
I guess he finds Alan more bearable than others? Or maybe just likes that he's quieter. . .or finds him more entertaining lol it's kind of nice to see that they're "getting along" in the loosest sense of the term i guess. . . .
Affinity 13:
"Huh... The little kabuki prince's sister married an actor from a different troupe?
Bet there's something going on there."
ふ~ん……梨園の御曹司サマには、別の屋号の歌舞伎役者と結婚した姉がいる……
なんか、超匂うわ~……
Affinity 14:
"You think I smell good? It's L'Occitane body lotion.
I just throw some on after showering in the morning."
この匂い? ロクシタンのボディーローションだけど。
朝シャンの後、ぱぱっとつけてるだけだよ
Affinity 16:
"Ugh, I totally missed out on that ultra-spicy chicken thing they had in Shin-Okubo.
Guess I'll read the reviews and get Sho to recreate it."
あ~新大久保の激辛チキン、完全に食べ損ねてる……
ネットのレビュー調べて、翔ちゃんに再現させるか
The tumblr app crashed like three times when i was trying to paste this one in????
Affinity 17:
"Wow, so late already. Better get a bath going and get ready for bed.
Here you go. It's for scrubbing the bath."
やば、もうこんな時間じゃん。さっさと風呂溜めて寝る支度しよ。
はいこれ、風呂掃除用のブラシ♪
If you do a real good job of cleaning the tub for him, he may even let you have some of his bathwater! Isn't he generous?
Affinity 18:
"That dumb video got over 10k interacts? God, you're all so basic... Muting."
あんな適当な動画が万バズとか、本当ちょろすぎ……うるさいから通知切ろ……
No respect or love for his fans is2g
Affinity 19:
"I can touch you, but you can't touch me.
That's how this works, got it?"
オレからキミに触るのはオッケー。キミからオレに触るのはダメ。
いい? これがオレたちのルールね
This is probably so much more innocuous than it sounds--like literal touching, or maybe him holding his fame as an influencer over you--especially since he's saying it with a straight face but. . .it's so easy to imagine this as Leo cuffing or tying your hands and when you ask what he's doing he climbs in your lap and moves your clothes out of his way and says this. . .and at this point you've probably never fucked or kissed or anything before so it's a little out of the blue but you can't really stop him and he just toys with you until he's satisfied. . .one of my favorite of his lines just because it's a little dirty lol
Affinity 21:
"Hey, Honor Roll, come sit down.
Not over there, next to me.
Good, you're comfy. Don't move, I'm taking a nap."
特待生サマ、ちょっとここ座って。
違うよ、オレの隣。
あ~気持ち~♡しばらく昼寝するから動かないでね
Lap pillow hours! Whether you like it or not!
Affinity 22:
"They went to the Pit again? Must really get a kick out of it...
Like big, dumb animals throwing themselves at each other."
あいつら、また地下に行ってんの?好きだね~本当……
やってること、虫相撲とほぼ変わんないじゃん……
Affinity 23:
"The whole demon nickname?
People can call me whatever they want. I know who I am."
悪魔って呼ばれてること?
別に、好きにすればって感じ。オレが何者かは、オレが一番わかってるもん
His expression saying this is pretty normal, so I guess it really doesn't bug him, which is good.
Affinity 24:
"Stay like this till I tell you to leave, okay? Got it?
I didn't hear an answer."
オレが行っていいって言うまで、キミはずっとこうしててね♡
……わかった? 返事は?
Again, this one's a little dirty which makes me like it a lot hahaha. . .this is a late night one(it's labeled "GoodNight" and only pops up between 10pm and midnight) is he telling you to sit still while he sleeps on your lap or uses you as a body pillow? Is he making you sit still with a toy in you while he ignores you or pretends he's not tormenting you sexually? SORRY I FIND SEXUAL THINGS SO AMUSING BUT HE'S MAKING IT SOUNDS SO HORNY. The audio doesn't sound as horny as i'm making it sound off but like LOOK AT IT.
Affinity 25(max!):
"Wanna make a bet, Honor Roll?
Over which will come first—me falling for you, or you getting hooked on me."
特待生サマさ、オレと賭けない?
オレがキミを好きになるのが先か、キミがオレに沼るのが先か
I think it's a little late for you, sweetheart. I think you've already caught the feels and that ship is sailed.
Spring:
"Why the hell would I go to class? I already learned all the first year material."
授業なんて出るわけないじゃん。1年で覚えなきゃいけない範囲は、もう全部やっちゃったし
"Cap really puts the "him" in "himbo..."
Look at him, he's got a flower stuck in his hair."
寮長サマってさ、あんな見た目してなんでポンコツなんだろね……
ほら見てよ。頭に花くっついてるし
"Can't believe how many gross dudes this account keeps reeling in. AI-generated pics make it so easy!
"Could you send me some more money ♡?” Send."
このアカ、変態ジジイ釣れすぎなんだけど。AI美女画像マジ便利~!
もっとペイペイちょ~だい♡っと
I find it funny that they use AI generated images for their backgrounds and also have a character who scams people with AI generated images. . . .
Summer:
"That rule about having to wear your academy or house uniform on campus is so outdated.
I'm going to die wearing all this crap in this heat."
学内は基本、制服か寮服じゃなきゃ駄目ってさ、今時そんな校則あり?
暑くて死んじゃうんですけど
"I can't believe Sho seriously ran out of my Killer Sauce. It's summer, this is when I want to eat spicy stuff."
翔ちゃん、オレのキラーソース切らしてんのマジあり得ないんだけど。夏こそ辛いもん食べたいのに
"I keep telling Sho we should let off some fireworks and he keeps saying no!
You want to do it too, don't you, Honor Roll?"
翔ちゃんに花火したいって言ってんのに、全然付き合ってくんないの!
特待生サマも、やりたいもんね~?
One of Sho's summer lines references this:
"Leo won't shut up about wanting to let off fireworks, but no way am I doing that shit with him again. I'm sure you can guess why."
玲音が花火してぇってうるせぇんだけどよ、俺は二度とあいつとはやんねぇって決めてんの。わかんだろ?
"Yeah, apparently there's more anomalies around in summer. Statistically speaking.
It's just fucking annoying more than anything else, really."
ああ、なんかこの時期って、日本は怪異が増えるらしいね、統計的に。
普通にめんどくさいだけなんだけど
Autumn:
"Thought I could have some fun here at Japan's most elite educational institution.
What a let down."
日本有数の名門校なんて言われて、期待して入ったのにさぁ。
結局この学園も、つまんないやつばっか
"Sports? Hard pass. I hate getting sweaty.
Ask Sho instead."
スポーツ? パス。オレ、汗かくの嫌いなの。
翔ちゃんでも誘ってきなよ
"Sho hurt himself playing basketball?
How unfortunate."
翔ちゃんがバスケ中に怪我した?
へぇ、そうなんだ。大変だね
He gives so few fucks about his best friend lmao then again they're ghouls, Sho'll probably be fine in like two hours.
"Ugh, I want to go clubbing...
We should make one in the Pit. Sinostra's got a casino, can't be that hard to get a permit."
あ~クラブ行きて~……
いっそさ、地下改造して箱にしちゃうのどう?カジノがありなら余裕じゃない?
Leo pointing at sinostra: if the criminals in there can have a fucking casino there's no way it's hard to get a business permit here. They kill people like on a weekly basis and no one's shut them down. The standards must be in the ground.
Winter:
"This coat? Cute, right? I knew it'd look good on me, so I bought it."
ああ、このアウター?可愛いっしょ。絶対オレに似合うと思って買ったんだ~♪
"I'm freezing... I'm having a carbonated bath tonight.
Wanna join, Honor Roll?
Of course I'm serious."
あ~、さぶ。今日の風呂は強炭酸にしよ……
特待生サマも一緒に入る?
別に、マジで言ってんだけど
This one happens regardless of affinity which is kinda funny to think about. then again, Japanese bathhouse culture probably means that's not super weird if you have a tub big enough, maybe? Then again a bathhouse and just having a bath with someone are different things. I bet he has lots of baths with Sho.
"Hey, everyone! It's me!
Ugh, my throat's all dry from the cold. I'll just stream tomorrow..."
こんばんは。LEOだよ~!
……やば、乾燥で喉死んでるわ。配信は明日にしとこ……
Of note here, Leo's online handle is just "LEO" in Japanese. In English his name probably had to be given just as Leo to prevent this being lost in translation, because his actual name, in kanji, is 玲音, which is pronounced "Reio"(the same as 'leo' but with an r). But "Leo" is stylized since Japanese doesn't have the L sound and the R sound is closest. So in Japanese he says "It's LEO!" whereas in English he just says "It's me!" since his handle and his name are the same. Although, as someone who follows streamers, introducing yourself again at the top of a stream isn't too uncommon i think? But I also don't watch the influencer types, so the culture is probably very different haha.
"The ghouls won't listen to you? No shit.
You realize we were hand-picked by demons, right?"
グールが言うこと聞いてくれない?そんなの当たり前でしょ。
だって、オレたち悪魔に選ばれた人間よ?
He's one of the only ones who mentions something like this on the homescreen(off the top of my head Haku is the other one who really mentions how none of them are normal). And he's absolutely right--they were chosen by demons, made pacts with those demons, and ultimately overcame them somehow. Most of them are gonna be kinda stubborn. A demon probably wouldn't choose someone who'd be influenced easily. . .except the demon who chose Kaito apparently. Probably just looking for easy pickings, that one. Or maybe Kaito wasn't always such a coward. . . .
His birthday:
"You got me a birthday present? Oh, thanks. Just put it over there, I'll look at it later.
I will, I promise."
オレに誕生日プレゼント? あ~、ありがと。そこらへん置いといて。
大丈夫だよ、後で見るってば
Rude ungrateful little shit lmaoooooo "yeah yeah my fans sent me a bunch of gifts already. I'll get to it."
Your birthday:
"It's your birthday? I'll help you celebrate.
Meet me behind the garage later."
へぇ。今日キミ、誕生日なんだ。
そうだ……オレが祝ってあげる♡後でガレージの裏においで
New Years:
"Happy New Year! I prefer digital payment.
What do you mean, what do I mean? I'll be nice to you again this year, so pay up."
ハッピーニューイヤー♪ はい!
なにって……今年も仲良くしてあげるから、お年玉ちょ~だい?
"We can still be friends, so compensate me monetarily" lolol i swear if he weren't vice captain i wouldn't be surprised if he eventually transferred to Sinostra in his second or third year. I think he'd fit in.
Valentine's Day:
"This is that ultra-spicy chocolate they only sell this time of year...
I'm actually genuinely stoked right now."
これ、毎年この時期にしか買えない激辛生チョコレートじゃん……
え、普通に嬉しいんだけど
White Day:
"Here, as thanks for the chocolate. You're not going to tell me you don't know Godiva, are you?
All right, now we're even."
はい、これお返し。キミ……まさかゴディバ知らないわけないよね?
じゃ、これで貸し借りはチャラね
April Fool's:
"Ha ha. You were photobombing one of my pics so I uploaded it and said I had a new girlfriend. 10K interacts in less than an hour. Suckers."
あはは。新しく彼女できましたって特待生サマのこと匂わせたら、一瞬で万バズしたんだけど。嘘なのに~
Comments section like "gee Leo how come your boyfriend lets you have two partners?"
Halloween:
"Trick or treat!
Ugh, the only good thing about this dumb event is the video content it provides."
トリックオアトリート!
って……こんなくだらないイベント、動画のネタになるだけマシなんだけどさぁ
Not much of a halloween guy. . .even though this is Sho's halloween dialogue???
"You really need an explanation? Leo made me wear it!
Shit, why am I always the girl..."
ああ? 言わなくてもわかんだろ。玲音に着せられたんだっつの!
クソ、なんで毎年女装なんだよ……
You're making your boyfriend best friend crossdress for your halloween vids? When you don't even like Halloween? And this is a REGULAR occurrence???
Christmas:
"This Christmas-themed food Sho made might pull some traffic.
All right, uploaded. You can eat the rest, Honor Roll. Say "ah"!"
MAN THAT TOOK A LONG TIME. He really just has a lot of personality lol or maybe i just like his personality a lot? Either way I like a bunch of his lines so that's honestly like 90% of them. Bit of a goober. I'll do Sho's in a few hours! Since i already have his japanese file open from doing Leo's lol
ことわざ are Japanese proverbs, and I have listed some basic proverbs, their equivalents in English, and a rough translation of the meanings of the Japanese phrase.
There is a test for ことわざ called the ことわざ能力検定 (ことわざのうりょくけんてい) and these are some of the phrases that appear in level 9 or 9級 (10 being the lowest level). For the time being, try one or two of these out the next time you speak with a native Japanese speaker!
