Talk:Kyouko Sakura

Actually, she is holding this in her mouth. It's called "棒棒冰" in...I suppose, Chinese? It is also called "chuubert" in Gintama(see episode 149).

someone on /a/ also said it's from a candy or whatever. --Pronas 12:00, 21 January 2011 (CST)

good ref, I'm too lazy to update the info page right now. could do with an comparison pic. --Sayaka 12:57, 21 January 2011 (CST)

It's called Chuupet (チューペット) in Japanese. Chuu as in "suck" and PET. --0x99 14:20, 21 January 2011 (CST)

Korea-related speculations

(namely this diff: [1]) -- Anon-kun 17:33, 27 February 2011 (UTC))

They have been deleted by 124.25.106.108. What is the point of that? Political correctness? --KFYatek 16:24, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

Since that IP is from Japan, Japanese fans probably found that speculation unpleasant. Personally I would like to avoid this topic since it would led to vandalization from both sides, but I'll just follow the consensus here. --0x99 16:44, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

Note that the IP that added it is Japanese too... Anyway, I'd let it flow too if I were you --Homerun-chan 16:48, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

Actually, the IP 114.203.154.179 belongs to SK Broadband in Korea. --0x99 16:53, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

Oh you're right, I misread the diffs (I didn't see the problematic sentence was part of a bigger paragraph so the diffs made it look like it was the japanese anon who added it). Whatever... --Homerun-chan 16:59, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

The Pit and the Pendulum speculah at Homura Residence seems to come from the same people. At the time I edited it, I thought it was kind of strange that the original poster emphasized their credit in first observing it -- given that nobody else really cares for that stuff. o.O

On the subject of political correctness, though, it would probably be good to keep an eye out for article content that may be inflammatory to certain groups? --Fallacies 20:30, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

It's being discussed in the thread right now (thread #261 for archive reference). I think we all agree the guy who saw anti-Korean subtext read too much into things. As for the openly racist content, I for one skim through the changes regularly (and I'm fairly sure I'm not the only one) so I believe it would be spotted/corrected rather fast. Concerning 'accidents' like the one that just happened, I'd let the problem solve itself. --Homerun-chan 20:32, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

Can anybody work the speculation into a politically-correct form? By the way, is the speculation logical? --Craig1125--
