Also for no particular reason, here's a video clip of a cute Japanese girl shooting a gun in Las Vegas:

and here's a bunch of em shooting a 50cal

EDIT:
from one English learning stream to another

and there's still AZKi to watch

 

[kadmckool]

I wonder if Ina is a TYPE-MOON fan, or just a filthy, disgusting, repugnant, casual Fate fan.

She’s a TYPE MOON fan. Pretty sure she get excited over Tsukihime remake and ReoNa cover song

 

[Anachronistic]

Everyone is excited for the plushies but I actually wouldn't mind an acrylic stand of Calli and Ame.

 

[The One And Only ALTE]

On the subject of chimkin: she's a spergy Euro. Any American who's been on the internet would know exactly what social interactions with Kiara would be like. I don't think any of them really dislike her, they just kinda accept that Kiara is Kiara and move on with it.


Gura, Calli, and Amelia have probably all interacted with firearms. The Tako almost certainly not (although firearms are not that much harder to get access to for hobbyists/hunters in Canada it's just not common among the East Asian diaspora in leafland from my understanding).

The east asian diaspora in America (origin depending) seems pretty likely to own guns in America. Some ethnicities (particularly Koreans and and Laotians) I have found, are often gun owners, whereas chinese and japanese not as frequently.

And there's a surprising number of tourists who come here just to shoot guns. The fact that you can access to a full-auto on a licensed range with only a few hours in a safety course is pretty appealing to a lot of people apparently. I pity the instructor who has to drill the elite miko in firearm discipline though ("Okay, so make sure you keep the barrel pointed down and your fingers off the trigger until it's clear down range." "NOo, FAQ u!").

From what I've heard, Japanese are pretty easy to deal with because they take instruction well and are most comfortable when given a clear set of rules to abide by. Of course they'll try to abide by them even when it doesn't make sense to.

I know it won't happen, but I hope she gets hooked up with some guy with a ranch and SOT status instead of being ripped off at some place like battlefield vegas. That said, the big places are going to have guns most people won't, like M1134s.

Also for no particular reason, here's a video clip of a cute Japanese girl shooting a gun in Las Vegas:

I need to find some of chinese tourists, its exactly as scary as you would expect.

With the sudden rise in violence against Asian communities we've been seeing around America, I wouldn't be surprised if we see a sharp incline in Asian-American gun ownership across the board. Maybe we can entice Ina to abandon her Leaf ways and move into the superior Northern American country if we get her a Takodachi branded AR15.

Anyone from america could see the lighting and multi camera setup of icarly and immediately peg it for lowest-common-denominator sitcom.

If you tell me your favorite drama/romantic shows are iCarly and Victorious and you're an adult, I'm gonna laugh too. And I actually used to watch both of them

Now I know you are either a ferner or shit-liberal-American because you didn't capitalize the greatest country on Earth. Seriously though, while I agree anyone who has watched more than 3 hours of diverse American entertainment would know how childish that show is. . . and given my younger sisters. . . I lived through it. Drake and Josh was dope though; Fight Me.
On a more serious note. This makes sense. Japanese drama has the same slapstick and dumb bend. Westerners are colored by darker Anime features but those are not as common in the live-action department over there. Look at Kakegurui. Some of the scenes, while always funny, get downright grotesque. But the Live Action? Just plain dumb slapstick in comparison.

Kiara seems like she'd break more easily, and in a more entertaining way than calli. I think if calli was genuinely pushed past her limit she'd suddenly end her stream, then cry privately. Compared to kiki who would leave the stream on, while simultaneously tweeting madly on her phone.

Except we actually have two Kiara breakdowns already. She did the former, and while she cried a bit on stream (and none of the recent videos show that. . . if you heard the original you know what it sounds like), she cut it short to regather and was fine a few hours later.

I mean I get not liking her voice but man some of the people who react to her almost just as bad as they claim she is imo.

Agreed. I swear, none of you basement dwellers have ever seen what happens when stick an extroverted female in a group of introverted females. You get exactly how Kiara acts with the other girls.

I don't actually mind her voice, it's just there're things she does that tickles me the wrong ways, like the latest collab with subaru where she cried when she saw the usaken office, good lord that was fuckin cringe, even subaru is confused about it, if she is what she claims to be, a nousagi, she should've been happy because pekora is in a sense grew up, she's not a loner anymore, and the one who gave her a major influence in her growth as a character is moona, she shouldn't be jealous about it, i bet you 500k shekels that she thinks she's better than moona and she should've been where moona is at, next to pekora

I mean, the whole "crying" and jealous schtick just sound like usual homolove act, though by the way Kiara act during the whole Moona crashing into their collab it does feel like there's actual, one-sided bad blood between her and Moona for being in the way of her and her idol.

On the subject of chimkin: she's a spergy Euro. Any American who's been on the internet would know exactly what social interactions with Kiara would be like. I don't think any of them really dislike her, they just kinda accept that Kiara is Kiara and move on with it.

So. . . all of that brings up points that are kind of right and wrong. Fcret has the best take. It is called personal-lampooning. And I mean lampooning not how POKA's idiotic ass misinterpreted the word. It is when you take the shitty pieces of yourself, and roll with them to do a more humorous self-criticism for entertainment purposes. It is a very European form of comedy, one that only some Americans kind of get (NYrs and those places where sarcasm is a language on its own), and that the Japanese have no conception of. There is a reason why Nisioisin is considered a great writer. . . he manages to capture sarcasm and irony in a native language that doesn't work well with it.

I wonder if Ina is a TYPE-MOON fan, or just a filthy, disgusting, repugnant, casual Fate fan.

The Tako almost certainly not (although firearms are not that much harder to get access to for hobbyists/hunters in Canada it's just not common among the East Asian diaspora in leafland from my understanding).

let me dream, i dont want to believe that the Priestess is a filthy, disgusting, repugnant casual.

None of the EN girls seem particularly tech-savvy and there's no way to play the original VN in English without using the translation patches. And then unlocking the eroge scenes on top of that is an extra step. Like most of the non-JP speaking world, their primary exposure to Type-Moon is probably FGO and the animu adaptations.

I have never wanted to physically assault someone as much as just now. That you, @Takodachi would speak so ill. . . it pains me. I have no doubt Ina knows the intricacies of the root, why Shirou Emiya is the most BASED hero for the modern world, and why Avenger is the best servant and worth the grind for NP5. If she fails in any of that, she can only redeem herself to me by admitting that Ciel was overhyped and her tats are shit.

AZKi's new model doesn't seem to track her mouth very well. She's super nervous.

 

[Takodachi]

AZKi live

 

[(iIivVvbBb-iIimMmvVv)]

AZKi live

She converted height from Metric to the correct Imperial standard. Thank you Based Sharp-Eyed Goddess.

Who is apparently short by even Japanese standards.

AZKi's accent isnt half bad.

Your statement here reminded me of Stephen Fry explaining the difference between American Comedies and British Comedies. He explains it pretty well here.

It might also just be the romance component. I've seen a few Japanese dramas and while they get quite... sentimental, they don't have quite the same emphasis on open displays of affection. Maybe just the way the characters casually showed affection came off as incredibly intimate to Nene's Japanese mind and she thought it was some very serious adult drama (I wonder what she'd think of something like Game of Thrones ).

Slight off-topic but I think this is one of the ways in which American comedy really excels. A British comedy will spend an entire episode shitting on a character, but American comedies give their characters some very serious moments of personal development before returning to shitting on them. I love a lot of British comedies but one thing they desperately lack is staying power because the characters never get the room to develop season to season. Which is why I guess the UK Office got two short seasons whereas the American Office lasted for more than a decade and only really started to seriously decline when the showrunners decided that they'd had enough.

she got decent pronunciation

Against Ollie's simping even the gods struggle in vain.

Ollie need to do something else rather simping everyday. Make a great waifu zombos rather screaming for bleeding ears.

This is make me very rare to see Japanese drama. Their acting, mood, and atmosphere so bad. Not mention about live action movie they trying to get close to original material which it didn't have too only become just like movie with cosplayer on it. I'm totally amaze how well made Rurouni Kenshin live action is.

If you take deeper all of Japanese TV show is totally dumb, forcing script comedy even to make me laugh so hard they need to do some hardcore prank. The only thing that make amaze is actually Japanese creative ads.

Not gonna lie : I like K-Drama more even it's romance, Kingdom it's cool thou.

 

[Takodachi]

Man, AZKi's voice is so calming, and the background is just the chillest.

 

[(iIivVvbBb-iIimMmvVv)]

American Comedies and British Comedies.

It is a bit like that. . . but for I-Ties in NY, and I think some of the lower Catholic states, it comes to just riffing on any fault. . . and you hit yours first just to cover your ass.

Rooftop Korean meme deja vu.

Heroes. I think my family back home started to buy Korean BBQ out of respect for them shooting rioters 'backinzeday.' Though. . . an INA AR10 or. . . if the government let me. . . an AXMC in .308 with AO-Chan vibes, , , I'd send some insanity down range.

(I wonder what she'd think of something like Game of Thrones ).

Porn. Just like how half of America considered it porn for a bit. . . until the dragons stared being cool.

Edit: AZKI's voice and accent are gorgeous. She is a damn sweetheart.
