Status update: I ... think I still can't speak, though I haven't tried it at all today, and all housemates are GONE so it's just me and the cat. And while I talk to the cat, I have had no real need to today. In fact, I think I spent most of it either asleep, or playing Okami.
Which despite occasional HIGHLY FRUSTRATING momentsheadbutting the boulder across the path whyyyyyy, remains all sorts of awesome. (Though dude. Does anyone have a map of the path Mr. Flower takes when you trigger his dance sequence? I keep losing him when he does his stupid monkeying LEAP OVER THE WATER, damnit. >_>) Also, Kaguya has her hair to resemble rabbit ears and wears what appears to be a SPACE HELMET.
This game is 500000x better if you know your Japanese mythology, s'all I'm saying. XD
Also: ever had one of those phrases/words/whatevers that sounds really cool in its original language, and the meaning of it remains poetic at core, but when you translate it ... it just. Sort of.
--you're left with your head on the desk, wondering if you'd be able to say/think that phrase yourself without laughing yourself sick?
Yeah. Consensus (one of one) says that the character's just SPECIAL and leave it at that.
