"Language should exist to help convey ideas, thoughts, and feelings as clearly as possible."
Japanese: "Good idea. I'll have the word for 'like' and 'love' be the same."
Japanese: "Oh, but I'll have a word for love too. In fact, I'll have a few! But only one of them is consistent and it won't be the one people actually use a lot."
But at the same time, I can't even accuse Ayaka of being afflicted with more than a mild case of Anime; she's been pretty overt, all points considered!
The real issue is Hiroko. I was hoping she'd talk about what's been going on in detail at the gay bar so everyone there can call her a useless lesbian but she's dodged her just desserts so far.
At this point, I'm kinda rooting for Ayaka and Risa going on a date and running into her at the bar just to rub in HOW useless she is.
