[furinana]

I saw the post about how the cast of Apocalypse refer to each other in Japanese, and was intrigued. Just out of curiosity, how do they refer to themselves? Does anyone change throughout the game?

MASTERPOST OF JAPANESE PRONOUNS IN SMTIV/A (click below)

Watashi 私 - gender neutral for formal context, in casual context it's typically only used by women while men sound stiff. 

Navarre, Isabeau, Hikaru, Akira (Blasted Tokyo), Nozomi, Gaston, Toki, Stephen. Charon, Mastema, Danu, Maitreya, Adramelech, Medusa, Maitreiya (alongside Mitra-Buddha) and Satan.

Burroughs uses watashi in katakana ワタシ.

Ware 我 - very formal and old-fashioned, mainly for males, particularly emphasizes one's very existence. It's used in fiction by immortal beings, deities and figures of great importance and power.

Ring of Gaea members, Kuebiko, Asmodeus, Tenkai, the Heralds, Yamato Takeru, Pluto, Odin, Lucifer, Vishnu-Flynn and YHVH.

Kaga, Hugo, Gabby and Merkabah switch between watashi and ware.

Odin when disguising as an elderly man uses washi ワシ - basically when you want a character to sound like a stereotypical old geezer. You know who else uses washi?

Asahi uses atashi あたし - informal, very feminine, common in conversation among young women.

Inanna uses warawa ワラワ - archaic, humble, associated with women from samurai families. Xi Wangmu uses it in hiragana わらわ.

Boku 僕 - masculine, perceived as humble, can be used for all ages but has undertones of a youth (or feeling like one), also used when casually giving deference; "servant" uses the same kanji (僕 shimobe).

Flynn (and his previous life), Jonathan (and Kiyoharu), Neutral Akira from flashbacks, Krishna and Shesha.

Okay so here’s the thing... Fujiwara uses watashi in SMTIV... but got retconned to boku in SMTIVA? How much are you guys betting that the writers literally just forgot? But well, he sports a killing fedora combination just like Krishna so I guess he definitely still has that trendy youth spirit.

Ore オレ - informal, asserts masculinity, can sound rude depending on the context but conveys familiarity among friends or family.  Walter (and Kenji), Dagda, Koga Saburo and Hallelujah.

Issachar, K, Skins and Abe use ore but in kanji form 俺. Tayama switches between watashi and ore 俺. 

Akira (Infernal Tokyo) uses a variant of 俺,  俺っち (orecchi), it’s for when you want to describe yourself in a funny or playful way. It may also have a cutesy tone. Not many men call themselves that.

And to finish it... 1) Please remember that pronouns aren’t a hard-set characteristic and some characters switch pronouns depending on context and who they are talking to, take the example of Skins once switching to ware when he wanted to put great emphasis on the strength on Hunters (putting emphasis on one’s own group tends to be the reason for why humans use ware in contrast to deities mostly referring to themselves as individuals). And let’s not forget the Akiras, entirely adapting how they express themselves according to the flow of the world.

2) My headcanon for Nanashi is that he uses ore オレ either from the getgo or at least he switches to it after he gets influenced by Dagda (but honestly, he has such a punk vibe as a way to contrast him with Flynn that I find hard to grasp that he’d use boku at least on the same reason goody two-shoes characters would do lol). Unless he's doing it in a sly way to get what he wants from other people...

2023 winter jdorama

Get Ready (10.2) Stars: Tsumabuki Satoshi, Fujiwara Tatsuya Synopsis: A group of underground doctors/nurses do the operations no one else would do for a high price

I tried watching this just for the two leads alone, but it was very hard to get into. It's definitely not possible to suspend disbelief if you have even an ounce of medical knowledge. Curing someone who's had a stroke and someone with stage 4 cancer takes more than an operation. The medical case is really a backdrop to some reflective social commentary but that commentary wasn't memorable either. And despite Tsumabuki and Fujiwara both being great actors, the characters are kinda bland and difficult to care about.

Hyakumankai ieba yokatta (7.4) Stars: Satou Takeru, Inoue Mao, Matsuyama Kenichi Synopsis: A guy's spirit gets trapped on Earth, and the only way for him to communicate with his girlfriend is via a detective who's been assigned to solve his presumed death.

The premise is apparently similar to the 1990 American movie "Ghost". I'm surprised it rated as poorly as it did, because these three stars all have decent audience draw, and the story itself is interesting so far. It starts off a bit slow if you didn't know the premise, but the interactions between all three main characters are cute. Inoue is carrying the emotional heart of the scenes while Matsuyama is doing some heavy lifting with the acting (and you could see why such a good actor was requested for the secondary male role).

Themis no Kyoushitsu (10.5) Stars: Kitagawa Keiko Synopsis: A judge returns to her alma mater to take on a teaching role, but her special interest in ethics and practical law puts her at odds with the star tutor of the university whose methods aim at getting the students to pass the exams.

"The goddess of justice, Themis, holds a set of scales in one hand, and a sword in another - this signifies that justice requires both to be effective. Without the scales, justice is merely an aggressive bully; without a sword, justice is weak and ineffective."

This has become more and more of a topic of interest in a lot of academically demanding courses, e.g. medicine and law. Is it more important for students to pass the theoretical exams, or is it more important for them to understand the ethics of what they're doing -- and is there any point to learn the latter if they can't get through the former? I think it's a very important subject to raise. Ideally you want a doctor or law-person who has fantastic knowledge and has considered the ethics of what they're doing, but time, money and memory are all finite resources. These are also two professions who pride themselves on being dispassionate and "practical", but is that the correct attitude to take into a situation where your decision has longlasting impact on many people's lives? So I think a show that focuses on the benefit of understanding ethics - of understanding why it's important to protect the rights of the accused - is worthwhile in a society that's all too happy to condemn people based on very minimal snatches of facts.

If you're here just for Kitagawa Keiko, it actually doesn't centre her much...which is probably a good thing because her acting is annoying me again.

Happy Birthday, Pikorin!

Happy birthday to my all-time favorite seiyuu, Okamoto Nobuhiko!

nowadays, he's well-known for his gruff-voiced characters.

but - and I am not just speaking because of I'm biased - but he is one of the most dynamic seiyuu I've ever enocountered.

he could be sly (my personal fave)...

go high-pitched...

be princely/ikemen...

and be reserved/almost non-emotional!

but there is one other specialty he has: switching voices.

gruff to insane, high-pitched to sly, reserved to gruff.

THE RANGE.

he could do ANY role given to him, and it is no secret that I start an anime or play a game just to hear his voice.

2020 may have started out rough for him, but good news is, it all worked out. while he may not have much roles this year - probably to help with his recovery from surgery - I look forward to this talented man's future. I wish him a great year ahead in his personal life & career!
