Zenji is such a fun, unpredictable guy in the way that every character cue used on him screams "Traditional! Japanese!!" but then he opens his mouth and it's just a barrage English loanwords one after another. 😂

he actually sounds far more elegant (befitting of the whole Dramatic Poet trope) in the English loc, imo. 😅

#guy who dubbed himself Natsume Soseki of the Reiwa Era (i believe in him)#tokyo debunker #zenji kotodama #hotarubi #i didn't play tkdb with sound on when i read chapter 3 (i was in public) so my first impression of him was “oh so he's like #the dramatic poet. got it.“ but then i switched my game's language to JP and i was like #何言ってんのコイツ…😭#i'm so serious when i said zenji sounds far more elegant in the English loc than he originally is (talking abt his wording/choice of words)#like they're both convey the same feel of grandiose(?) but #JP zenji is like..... just imagine a guy who keep using foreign words in his everyday vocabulary #and i'm not talking in the nuance of bilingual people code switching mid-sentences
