Some additional TLNs that I thought of while watching the premiere: **TLNs about JP prefectures.** I have a hard time remembering JP prefectures, especially because I've never been to JP. The way I remember them is through anime/manga references. Here are some references that I use to remember to prefectures mentioned in this video: 1. Tochigi - where the protagonist of Makoto Shinkai's 5cm/s moved. My favourite film from him, btw. IMO, everything after Garden of Words pales in comparison. 2. Nagano - setting of Ano Natsu de Matteru (Waiting in Summer), Summer Wars, and Saki. 3. Hokkaido - setting of Gin no Saji (Silver Spoon), Working!, and Golden Kamuy. 4. Mie - setting of Nagi no Asukara (A Lull in the Sea). Beautiful OST. Please watch if you haven't. 5. Hyogo - well-known for their distinctive accent, even within Kansai. Anime include Suzumiya Haruhi and Sakmoto desu ga. 6. Shiga - Chuunibyou demo koi ga shitai, and K-ON. Quintessential KyoAni. **TLNs with SPOILERS.** 3:00 benkyou/勉強 is a relatively simple kanji, so when Toto not only wrote 'benkyou' instead of taxes/nouzei/納税, but wrote it in hiragana, the hosts laughed. 5:35 Toto's diet is mostly vegan/vegetarian, so it's surprising that she couldn't write 精進料理/shoujin ryouri/vegetarian cuisine. 9:00 The "Kinki region" is aka "Kansai region," which you are probably more familiar with. It is a homonym to the English word "kinky," which has made many institutions in the region change their names. However, the word has a long history in referring to "the area around the capital (city)." You can read more about this on Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kansai_region
Lisa infamously ranked lowest in VSPOs academic ability test, circa 2020 or so. Qpi was ranked first, so it’s interesting to see the two of them in the same heat.

Thanks for the anime recommendations
!
Qpi is not only good at games, she's also a monster drunkard, brocon, good singer and also a very knowledgable person. My respect for her rising up.
Lets gooo Qpi, a well-read gyaru gap is the best
The most famous thing about Mie is Shigure Ui (according to herself)
Before Ui it was oranges and orange accessories
9:57 Lisa became an English speaker for a few seconds.
Toto was so adorable the whole time ww
"3 major obligation for japanese citizen" hmm.. breed? I remember those abe meme
Now I'm kinda curious about group A questions.
Thanks for the TL! Smart gyaru ftw
Kusa cooking hahaha Lisa pls
0:46
they're right: smart gyaru is cute
ehh? no interview for qpi at the end?
I’m surprised Toto isn’t one of the brighter ones of vspo I always thought she was
India mentioned 🥳
Thanks for the TL!
Why does the title have Lisa as its subject? Is there some context behind/joke about this?

@@yd_ I see. Toto finally took the crown from Lisa LOL
