conkerer plz I bought squid tentacles this week, but didn't have time to actually try them out before this episode. I'll include a review next week. Speaking of next week, the release may be late, because I'm flying home right after Umaru airs. I'll probably be translating on the plane. There's not really enough for a full set of TL notes this week. The only thing worth noting is Ebina's Akita accent. I based her accent in translation on a stereotypical Minnesotan accent. I actually watched Fargo last night (never seen it before) and took notes. Also, props to Calyrica, a native Minnesotan who looked over the relevant lines and gave me some advice. Ebina's home prefecture of Akita is, as seen in the episode, up in the cold frozen north. As such, I didn't want to resort to the standard "generic American South" that tends to be the easy default for any country or non-Tokyo accent. I decided to go with something from the cold frozen north of America, instead.
