Also important to note that Suyooo's translation turns this into an ABC alphabet game, but he or she did include an explanation that I tried to implement in the notes.
Next up is A-~Excitement~Kintsuba...
Again, note the first and last syllables in Japanese! (Beginning with "ki", ending with "ba".) This is a Japanese dessert that is made of squares of sweet bean paste that then alternate between lightly battered on one side (lightly meaning it is transparent) and baked.And bavarois (Bavarian cream)...
Similarly as before, note how this begins with "ba" and ends with "a" in terms of Japanese term syllables.Pigiii!Or strawberry shortcake...
Similarly, note how the respective first and last syllables in Japanese are "i" and "ki".Maybe apple pie...
Note how the last syllable is "i".Me too~I wonder what kind of sweets they'll offer at the showcase.Sweet NamesYou made a word game out of this!?
