			In that case, uh, I don't know what to do, hahaha. If it's like "see you later" and then displays walking off, I suppose that's past if it's like "left the room" or "exited". But then, if it's like Fuuko actions, I think that's present since she makes the statement, then exerts the action, like "wah!" then runs away, or turns around then growls. Ugh, well since I'm undergoing a marketing project in class as well as heading into final examinations, I'll consider serious inputs during break, though I'll probably be playing instead. Though since I like things literal, I don't mind the tense confusion, but I suppose consistency does need to be retained within the sentence, I just don't know which one to pick. So I suppose I'll run one direction. -Amoirsp

			== -san ==

			I think in Japanese it is entirely possible to add -san to even something like an object.

			Remember, books are friends! So a bookstore is like a family! (The bookstore thing I made up for no apparent reason)

			... Thus you end up saying Honya-san, the place filled with friends. Anyways, I don't think -san is limited to people, and given the way Kotomi is, this isn't surprising at all. Of course, since this is a translation to English, there is no need to add -san. Well, it's still possible, but sounds weird to say bookstore-san, lol.

			On a random note, someone who carries a lot of books can be joking called Honya-san because that person is like a bookstore. This occurs in Negima, and I believe it also occurs in other manga/anime that have a character that has lots of books (oh and likes books, and read books, so it's not like Kyou who has at least one type of dictionary).

	:: Speaking of Kotomi's route, since she has no synergy to ANY other route in the game, I personally think Kotomi having personal quirks are fine even if they're inconsistent. What I mean is, even though other characters say un (ex: Ryou), you only encounter Kotomi under Kotomi scenes, AND the fact that she is always pointed out as much different (along with the tsukkomi effect and the vast knowledge of information we don't know of), that things like un and uun for her route alone, should be fine.

	Okay after thinking about it, I do realise what you mean in a much better sense. Rather than taking it at face value, you're determining a ratio that flows continuously. Though, the academic schedule among with things in the game for the most part are still Japanese. -Amoirsp		Okay after thinking about it, I do realise what you mean in a much better sense. Rather than taking it at face value, you're determining a ratio that flows continuously. Though, the academic schedule among with things in the game for the most part are still Japanese. Fortunately Sunohara's bad English is really well implied to the degree that you can deliberately misspell and be accurate. -Amoirsp
			:Okay, when you make THAT point, I'll have to agree. (Well more like I'll say yes let's go ahead with that even if I personally wouldn't mind it like that). I think I have to remember that we don't see the Japanese text anymore (and I love literally translating, so obviously seeing "English" I'd rather put "English"). I'll look at it this way then. For combination of English and Japanese (your examples), a reversal does sound good. For something like "Ryou is speaking fluent English." then let it be. I'm not too fond of changing the English grammar class to Japanese (probably because people know it's a Japanese game). The books, I'd say it's unnecessary to switch (since all the ones Kotomi read are too advanced, for example.) When I was trying to state my point, I was only thinking of the scissors and the books, so I failed to think about the Miyazawa route and well, since we haven't translated the last part of Kotomi's route, so I didn't think of that. BUT, about the Kotomi ending, wouldn't that "English text" have to be changed then?
