Hobgoblin2099 posted:Despite his past, he seems like a pretty cool guy. How on Earth did he manage to keep his position after being caught stealing money, though? It says "accused" so it might have just been a dumb media scandal without any actual substance behind it. I'd be interested to know how good the translation is here as something like "misappropriation" would give more of an implication of being sleazy / underhanded / immoral rather than straight up illegal.

Kawakami's story is like 3 or 4 different extremely annoying awful cultural tropes all bundled up into a big ball of stupid. "Someone got killed in an accident I had nothing to do with, after I delivered some bad news to them, which I was only complicit in, and not an active agent in causing. So it's totally my fault and I have to pay blood money to the family forever."

Stroth posted:The important part is this bit: I mean this is nothing but blackmail with a very tiny veneer of respectability on top. There would have to have been a whole raft of exasperating circumstances for the argument they're trying to make to have even the tiniest bit of legitimacy. You might as well blame the school as a whole for setting too much homework resulting in being too tired, for example. I assume that they went for such a weirdly contorted storyline in order to make Kawakami seem more sympathetic but it actually just makes her seem like a complete idiot being taken for a ride. Her reasons for going along with it don't stand up to any proper scrutiny, so perhaps you're supposed to assume that she's actually acting entirely out of (extremely misplaced) guilt and is using "I'm only protecting the school!" as an excuse to allow her to do penance for her self-perceived misdeed. Maybe that's supposed to be the point, but that doesn't make me hate this particularly overused and ugly cultural touchstone any less.

I'd argue that Twilight Princess was a good game but then I remembered that might have been the last dungeon I completed. But in my defense I'm just too lazy to play that kind of game any more. It had fantastic aesthetics, though. It just needed to not be a Zelda game.

Hobgoblin2099 posted:Same, to be honest. I mean "making small talk by discussing topics that both parts of the conversation are interested in" is like the basis of casual social interactions, and most people enjoy food, so it's not particularly a bad thing. I have pretty niche interests and I don't like any popular music or sports so that doesn't leave much space for other stuff to talk about other than really obvious topics such as the weather or local news.

Wow I just looked it up and holy poo poo it's like someone specifically went out of their way to be as offensive as possible, especially compared to the extremely obvious twist you could make to the same scenario which would make it a more sympathetic reading.
