Default Kaworu Watashiya's tweets
Does anyone follow KW on Twitter? I don't use Twitter myself, but her tweets are on her webpage.

So highlighting her latest tweet and translating it with Bing, it get this...

アシさんと打上げから帰宅なう。今月もおつかれさまでしたー! 眠いけど今寝たらすべて脂身になるな(´ε `)

From Reed's and launch accompanied home. This month too and thanks ー! A dish sleepy but now all become suet(´ ε ')

(about 8:30 pm Tokyo time)

what the... Looks like they still have a ways to go with J-E translators.

You can have sexy underwear, or comfy underwear. But not both...


Unless they're shimapan.

I went to her tweeter too.

アシさんと打上げから帰宅なう。今月もおつかれさまでしたー! 眠いけど今寝たらすべて脂身に なるな(´ε `)


the tweet means

I went home after having a celebration party with Ms.Ashi(confirmed Ms.Ashi is KW's assitant,source: a 4com Ugetsu sent to me). Thanks for the past month. I'm sleepy but if I go to sleep right now all (that I ate on the party) will turn into my fat (´ε `).

The celebration party should be for the finish of the monthly story of kojika.

Just for the reference, guys.

If you put lines from KnJ into Google Translate, Rin comes out as Phosphate, Kuro as black, Aoki as green tree.

One of the big problems with Japanese is that you can name someone ANYTHING. Creative parents can have children named things like "science" or "pink" or "stone." Or "Mr. Foot" for God's sake!!!

Translation programs have no way to recognize proper names...

LOL. INDEED.
Some of their names are unimaginable in our view as a Chinese.Like 犬塚 a dog tomb, as the family name?It will not happen in China.But this is the unique culture of Japan, people didn't have their family name until the Meiji era.And lots of people just use someting around them as their family name like their position.The most used family name in Japan is Tanaka(田中) means in the paddy field. Make pefect sense because Japan is a agrarian country back then.I doubt if it happend nowdays some one would even named after otaku or anime. like Otaku Taro(御宅太郎)
lol。

No offense,just culture discussion, I respect Japanese people and their culture.

Going off-topic about Japanese family names, I saw that one of the soccer players on the World Cup Champion team was Sameshima. "Shark Island". That sounds so cool!
