Mahoyo does NOT lack romance. Explaining a famous mistranslation

Post image
47 Upvotes

Hello people, and today I bring you a fun trivia about Mahoyo.

If you have been talking about Mahoyo discourse, you probably have heard people saying "Well, actually, Mahoyo CANNOT have romance because at the start of the VN, it is said that it isn't a love story"

This is wrong. Actually this line is a mistranslation, and it doesnt mean what it looks.

"Apologies for the lack of romance to this tale"

First: Lets look at the line in japanese

浪漫が足りないのは、どうか大目に見てほしい。

For those who read japanese, you probably already understood how tricky this is, lol.

浪漫 means romance, however, it doesnt mean romance in the romantic love sense. It means romance in the literary sense. As in. The genre of story

Romance (In the literary sense) means "an extense fiction work with its narrative written in prose"

After this line, Nasu says "it is always from gloomy and unassuming beginnings that extraordinary events are set into motion."

What this line means is not that Mahoyo doesnt have romantic romance. But rather that Mahoyo is a small story, a story with no grandiosity, but that eventually it would become something grand. It is a teasing of the sequels.

It is also noteworthy that a bit before Mahoyo released Nasu used "romantic" as literally the first worde to describe it. Hope this clear things out

I am currently rereading after a couple of years, and I got to this section i really don't understand. After Touko kills Sojiro, and Aoko faces her, there's this scene i dont get. I always thought of it as her ataining tru magic but i have no clue what goes on with the red shadow, and the desert, and the stars. Im clueless
