 ===Ijin===
 異人 / 偉人 - Ijin: Yasuhara uses the kanji 異人 (ijin) which is foreigner/outlander. Mai uses the kanji 偉人 (ijin) which is great man. Apparently, from the 1850s to the early 1900s, the word 異人 (ijin) was used to refer to someone from a foreign country, which is now 外国人 (gaikokujin). The kanji for 外国人 (gaikokujin) means outside-country person. Mai also uses the word 外人さん (gaijin-san). 外人 (gaijin) is another term for foreigner and the kanji means outside-person. Some feel the word has come to be a derogatory term and that it possess a negative connotation.
