>>16431967I feel like this gets overplayed, like something that started as half-truth half-joke and the half-joke part got taken too seriously that it intimidated some EOPs
My JP level is intermediate-ish and I have a way easier time understanding Miko than other holos, partly because Miko has a slower pace to her sense of humor than other holos
I'm serious about this; like go try to listen to Haachama in japanese with intermediate jp skills. She has that teenagery "nee nanka saa haachama saa, te iuka saa" really fast rhythm to her humor sometimes and on average, it's pretty up there in terms of difficulty to understand
To be fair, Miko does slur her words sometimes like the "soa-chan" incident where nobody could tell if she was saying "sui-chan" or "sora-chan" but I feel like it's played up like how her sloppy pronunciations of "purpur block" were played up
Purpur block is an easy word to slur up and other holos often casually slur words when they're speaking quickly too
So I guess my point is Miko's fine, don't get too intimidated
Also Miko is incredibly expressive with her movements and tone that it's really easy to understand her charm and comedic wit in any situation regardless of language
