The joke doubles on itself, as when Monika says that it doesn’t make sense in translation, that’s because 1) the game has a very japanese style, but is made in English, negating the joke on a global scale, and 2) it’s pronounced Mo-ni-ka, but for the joke to work, it’d be Mon-i-ka. That’s like, what, four jokes? Five?"
