I realize that 'ボタン' is literally 'Botan,' but I've been translating it as 'Button' as opposed to preserving it because it's cuter and I see no reason to preserve Katakanafied English in an English translation. If a character were named 'Arekusu,' you'd change it to 'Alex,' and I don't see this being any different. I won't change it back for now, in case this will interfere with the continuity of other SEEN's. If this is not the case, I'll change it back and request using 'Button' in the future. Request input.
