Keomi, anata wa karera o dosureba yoi ka shitte imasu.” (Yes, it is ok Cass. You truly are an Onryo. Your reputation proceeds you. Keomi, you know what to do with them.)

she explained. “So you can speak three languages, ​​huh? That’s really cool. Sugoi.” Alisa praised the girl for the term used by the Higashinese. Kyouko smiled when hearing that. “Hehe ..., arigatou, Alisa-san.” “Eh? Arigatou?” “That means ‘thank you’.” Kyouko shows them around a small part of Kaguyashima that is often visited by tourists. Meanwhile, Alisa gets more and more new information for her research needs.

“Nothing! I just thought you’d give me the real answer instead of saying what most are expecting.” “The real answer?” I asked in confusion. “She’s joining because we’re working like that ‘coco say tan tay’ from Case Closed that she likes.” I stared at her, looking more confused than before. What did she say? Then, it dawned on me and I laughed. “Oh,” she crossed her arms; “forgive my twisted Japanese. I believe you have a Japanese relative, Major. Would you mind correcting me?” “W-Well,” I wiped my tears of joy; “it’s koukousei tantei.”

He chucked, "You still think you love me, you don't. Stop lying to yourself. All you care about is what others think of you, what I think of you-- Doesn't really matter anymore. My feelings... I wonder if they exist in your new world. It's too beautiful for people like me to exist in." "Ethan--" "Don't call me by my name. I'm only Hiomi to you."

He told me, which made me nod before grabbing some of my bags. It wasn’t long until we got out of the airplane and took our luggage. A man dressed in a tuxedo greeted us as it bowed at our sight. “Ohayou gozaimasu, nihon e yōkoso,” He greeted. I got thrilled when I understood him as I bowed my head. (Good morning, welcome to Japan,) “Arigatōgozaimashita,” I muttered before raising my head. The master looked like he was pleased to see or hear me do that. (Thank you so much,)

“Heri-san, what’s the Indonesian for Ohayou gozaimasu?” Heri replied almost instantly. “Ehh, what a surprise! It’s… SELAMAT PAGI.” Sakura quickly noted it down. A moment later, Heri added, “Try to remember the word SELAMAT. It’s really useful! It kind of means omedetou, and flexible!” “Like… SELAMAT SIANG is Konnichiwa SELAMAT MALAM is Konbanwa or Oyasumi, SELAMAT ULANG TAHUN is Otanjoubi Omedetou. You can use SELAMAT for many things!”

"Congratulations!" Tadashi froze for a second before a soft smile spread across his lips and a gentle look entered his eyes. His arms circled around her waist. "Mm. Thank you!" Tadashi then pulled back a little and stared deep into her grey eyes. "Igarashi-san... May I address you by your given name?" Naoko felt the warmth in his gaze, turning her smile into one that came from heart. "That would make me happy." "Naoko...-san." Tadashi whispered, keeping the honourific attached.

“Uh-huh…” “Rina-san, I mean, that little girl from the Adventurer Guild. She told me that people use honorifics to strangers or the people they respect. If it’s between friends, or close people to us, some don’t use honorifics. They simply call the names.” Jai remembered this being the custom for the Japanese people in his world too. The closer you get with someone, the more comfortable they will be around you, and to sign the close relationship, they will usually call each other by their given name and not their surname. In other chances, they discard the suffix -san and replace it with -chan, or even discard it completely. “Uh-huh…” Darrion frowned slightly. He didn’t seem to get it.

[1] -chan: A form of suffix used to address someone familiar or younger than you in Japan, usually a female [2] Baka: Stupid or idiot in Japanese [3] Obaa-san: Aunt or auntie in Japanese, though it can also mean ‘old lady’ [4] Otou-san: A form of address for one’s father in a Japanese family
