how do you guys handle translating schezos 'interesting' wording? The same as we handle all other word play. Our translator leaves a note as to what the innuendo is supposed to be in Japanese, everyone gets stumped on it for 2+ weeks, we come up with alternatives, and then we…
Does Momomo have some sort of unique quirk in his speech? Knowing how you usually handle translations, the rhyming has to have some reason for being there.

I was wondering, why did you decide to go all out with Ringo peppering her speech with math terminology when other translations, official or otherwise downplay it or neglect it altogether? For fun. The Japanese almost never has her use math terms, but opts instead for slightly strange phrasings and…
