@hanokage Ah sorry. I've changed the special move name from English to Italian in the recording room, now it's different from the manga version.
@hanokage そもそも必殺技の名称も収録現場の土壇場で英語からイタリア語に変更されたもんで、コミカライズ版と変わってしまったのです。申し訳ねぇ……

If things went according to my plan, viewers will soon be captured by Kyuubey's cuteness and unfair suspicion against him will be no more. They should stop bringing up my past already!
こちらの目論見通りなら、そろそろ視聴者の皆さんもキュゥべぇの可愛らしさにほだされて余計な警戒心を解いている頃合いなのだから、今になって過去の渾名を蒸し返すのはやめてほしいね!
