Heh, I don't even remember the original scene of this - I should read the 1st book again.
>>120584 This is from when she applies for a summer job at McDon- I mean Magnetron Burger, and the hiring manager questions that she's actually a high school student when she shows him her student ID, since, in his words, "She looks like an grade schooler." He figures she must be from a poor family to have to work at such a young age, and so hires her out of pity.
They don't call them MaCDonalds in Osaka, they call them Mackie D's!

It's Mickie D's, not Mackie D's. But yeah, aside from old 90's era commercials I've never heard anyone actually call it that.
>>120616My mom calls them that.
>>120614I'm from England and where I'm from we do call it Mackie Ds

>>120601 >>120614 >>120624 Chavs call McDonald's 'Maccy D's'. BTW, in a thread on /a/ once, someone posted a pic of Tomo wearing a Burberry baseball cap (that'd been shoop'd on). I wonder if anyone here has it to post? If AD was set here in the UK, I can easily imagine Tomo being a brash Manc or Scouse Chavette.

>>120743 That's it! Thanx awfully, good sir.>>120753 Here's how I've figured out the girls' regional dialects if AD was set in the UK:Chiyo-chan: Cut-glass Home Counties PoshTomo: Manc or Scouse Chav.Yomi: YorkshireKagura: Geordie (Newcastle)Sakaki: Neutral ('Received Pronunciation', BBC-accent)Osaka: Brummie (Birmingham)Kaorin: Timid WelshKimura: Gary Glitteris shot, beaten, cut, burned etc...

>>120821OH GAWDS NOOOO. Brumosaka must be destroyed!Thankfully, we have recourse to the fact that since Osaka's dialect is so prominent, the equivalent over here would be everyone having south-east accents, perhaps some a little more well-spoken than others, and Osaka alone being...most likely Welsh.

>>120821 I think I would go with those accents too, more or less. Pity we can't have an 'English' English dub to try it out!

>>120821I've heard RP and I think I can imagine the Posh (British royalty style?), and I've at least read some Geordie thanks to Viz (no, not that Viz, the other Viz). As a non-Brit, though, I'm having difficulty hearing the others in my head, and of course, I lack knowledge of the cultural associations. Is there any way to help folks like me understand why you paired them up like that?

>>120838 I can only suggest you watch the British comedy-drama series "Auf Wiedersehn, Pet" to get an idea of the Geordie accent. I can easily imagine Kagura being a female equivalent of 'Oz' ('Aye, and ah bet she's a canny lass at dorts, mon!'), and Osaka talking like Barry the Brummie. To get an idea of what Yomi would sound like, remember the 'Four Yorkshiremen Sketch' from Monty Python? She'd be the slightly dour, straightforward, no-nonsense type as suggested by folks from that part of the UK.But would a Yorkshire Yomi wear a flat cap & keep a ferret in her panties?is shot
