Someone needs to be second. If indeed there is a combo. I haven't ever heard of a sine on Steam.
It's not a lie if you don't want to be believed. You're can't be wrong if you don't think you're right.

I would be Cosecant but I don't feel like changing my name, I'm already notorious for changing my name like every 3 seconds.

ThanatosTheDark

Kuroshiiutsu

My name..... I just made it up at the start of the year. I joined a Japanese learning course in my country and I got really obsessed it. So I decided to translate the name of one of my favorite FPS game, BlackShot by Garena, into Jap and set it as my nick name. My friends were soon calling me by that (even though they can't pronounce it) :Sweat: :um: , so that's how I got this name

Rolina

I'll stick with Kuroshi.  Easier to say, and sounds cuter.

I don't think he's going for cute, plus, it kinda sounds like karoshi, y'know? And I don't think anyone would call themselves 'death by overwork'.

The bubonic plague is way cute, yeah!

Kuroshiiutsu

I'm not really good at that language yet :sad:, so it just sounds weird and hard to pronounce, "Kuroshii" is black and "utsu" is to shoot a weapon.

Misery

I'm just gonna stick with "Kuro", kay? ;P

ThanatosTheDark

QuoteI'm not really good at that language yet , so it just sounds weird and hard to pronounce, "Kuroshii" is black and"utsu" is to shoot a weapon.

Wouldn't that translate into shoot a black weapon? Sounds like it could be cool or racist.

Cool- the weapon is painted black

Racist- its a black person's weapon
I am nothing more than a nothingness that never was.

Atrius (He/They)

I think "Black shooting" would be a closer translation.
[sprite=220,4,0]I'm shaking my head in general disapproval of everything[/sprite]

Kuroshiiutsu

@Atrius this is my first year learning the language, I doubt that I could translate "shooting"
@Kingzane yah it does sound a little racist I guess

If the Japanese can turn cockroaches and zombies into "moe", then I'm sure it applies to a "bubo-tan" too.  Never underestimate Japan's moe boom's ability to make you go "wait, you made WHAT cute?!"

Lesson learned from this: Never underestimate the Japanese entertainment industry.

I made that mistake once. It involved vomiting rainbows for 3 days and nights.

Not quite every - remember, in the steaming pile of crap coming out of Japan right now, there's still a gem or two.  We just have to sort the @#$% - or better yet, let someone else do it for us, and find out which anime was actually good this season.
