Content creation (artistic)
author=Marrendauthor=GarageI'm not exactly sure about what the rules are for sentences beginning with an ellipsis. However, my thinking is to either go with "...Guess so." or "I... guess so?"
Getting confused by that period is acceptable, I think.
When transcribing speech, pretty much anything goes, as long as it reflects how it was spoken. For instance, if she's muttering, that might only be the end of what she's saying, so forgoing the capital letter would be appropriate.
I'm not 100% certain about that hyphen, either. Personally, I'd use a comma there. However, that might be an irrelevant nitpick on my part.
Yeah, it should be a comma.

Out of curiousity (I did not use the name) ...
What would happen to the name "Klaus Meine" if a Japanese kid tried to pronouce it?
(Singer of Scorpions - I know that this band has been a success in Japan; I just can't fancy what would happen to his name.)
Phonetically, it would come out to "ku-ra-u-su ma-i-ne" (クラウス マイネ). Unless you're listening closely, the only major difference would be the Japanese "l/r" consonant sound replacing the "l", as the "ku" and "su" vowels would be almost subvocalizations.

Hmm - hey you gave me an idea ... maybe she's recovering from a serious problem - like a long sickness or a personal lost a few month ago?
I considered suggesting something like this myself, actually. It would definitely make sense -- it's quite rare tor students to repeat a grade in the Japanese school system, so having a few months' catch-up work and being overwhelmed by it would be a pretty typical scenario.

Again, it depends. Since I haven't had a chance to look your content over yet, I can't say whether it fits the character. Is she meant to be a ditz? A slacker? A delinquent? Preoccupied with something to the point that she's severely distracted during class? Suffering from short-term memory loss? There's a lot of possibilities, but my main point is: if you want her not to know, then you come up with a good reason for her not to know. If you can't, then it's probably best to change it, especially if it's not a plot point.

I'd say it depends. Doesn't recognize the name immediately upon being mentioned? Plausible. Doesn't recognize the name after a bit of prodding? Probably would require some significant justification, but still not out of the realm of possibility.

author=Garageauthor=dewelarI replayed the intro ... there is nothing mentioned about a newly begun school year or something. Only that the bet was started on a Monday.
I got the impression that the game is meant to start fairly close to the beginning of the school year, which in Japan would be early April. 101 days would thus put the game end in mid-July, and 151 would put the ending in late August / early September. That seems plausible.
*nods* I didn't mean to imply that this was explicit within the game, just that this was the vibe it gave off.
(This doesn't even consider the standard several-weeks-long summer break in July/August, but in the end the game is obviously not meant to be too strictly realistic.)

Does anybody know (or care in the context of this game) when the school year starts in Japan? Or when during the 2nd school year Miki's bet started (I always thought it was at the start of their 2nd year, but I did only play the intro twice and can't recall it for sure)?

Should I concern myself with the Zodiac signs in this context - like Aquarius is younger or older then Leo ... or would any error here pass under artistic licence?
Since the Japanese do not generally use the Western zodiac, I believe artistic license is already at work :D.

Ah, I seemed to have learn something ... is it correct that in Japanese there is normally nor difference between singular and plural? It's one "kami" as well as many "kami".
That confused my quite a bit with the word "tachie" before.
Is this correct?
Yes, the Japanese language does not use a separate plural form for nouns.

@RukasuWYZ: in your content the player seems to have "Sato" as a last name ...
Did you find this somewhere in the game or in these threads or has that been your own decision?
Very interesting, since Sato is also Akari's family name...
