Henya Didn't Know Loan Shark weren't Types of Shark

[@VestinVestin]

I'm glad they knew her enough not to assume she was merely joking, but to immediately figure out that she was confused xD.

[@ShoWel]

she did sing the "Jaws" theme, which has nothing to do with loan sharks

[@DeathKnight5608]

⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠@@ShoWelIt can still work as a joke if you’re poking fun at a literal interpretation of loan shark.

[@Ojisan642]

I love how Henya has everything she owns hidden behind secret walls.

[@astrosteve]

And that she often goes in there on stream, so everyone else on the server knows how to get to it. And it's not unusual for Zen to raid her for stuff. I remember one time Melody just went in there while Henya was doing something and very awkwardly (in the way only Mel is) said, "Hi, dayo." Henya actually jumped because she wasn't expecting it and started yelling at Mel to get out. It was great.

By necessity. Unfortunately it doesn't help.

Henya heard "I could be a loan shark," but her brain parse it as "I could be a lone shark." So great how she jumps in all the way into these conversations so bravely. She's great at learning through the mistakes as well. My students should be like Henya.

[@spk1121]

I bet there has been more than one loan shark who has had the "Jaws" theme running through his mind just prior to taking out someone's kneecaps!

[@-Raylight]

I just love how clueless Henya sometimes. She's on her way to become genius xD

[@Earthzooka]

To be fair, if I'm not already fluent in English, I'd have also assumed a loan shark is a type of shark only because I'd be more likely to recognise "shark" before "loan".

[@TheSurprisePizza]

@@Earthzooka Or to mistake "loan" as "lone". A "lone shark" is totally a logical thing. Henya was even humming the Jaws theme music, which is a movie about a "lone shark" terrorising a sea-side town.

[@battlesheep2552]

You obviously cannot fathom the depths of her brilliance. Her plans reach 10,000 years into the future. Sasuga, Henya-sama!

[@Barnuses]

I mean, if you've seen Buffy the Vampire Slayer, there is a loan shark that is an actual shark.

[@Spoopball]

a lone shark, is what could have been misconstrued

[@TomuraDev]

When she mentioned Ushijima-kun I finally understood what she meant with that she isn't that innocent in Japanese and it's just the language barrier. That manga is pretty tough to read because of how depressing and cynical it is, especially in the beginning. Also lots of adult themes. But still it kind of pulls you in and you want to know how it continues.

i would 100% have assumed Henya was doing the Jaws theme as a joke on the name (becaus i would make that joke and i do know what a loan shark is)

[@stepheneddington1667]

In Henya's defense, Nurse Sharks aren't nurses. Tiger Sharks aren't tigers. Bull Sharks are not cows. I'm sure Zen didn't use a Hammerhead Shark to build her house. When one stops and thinks about it, there are lots of sharks named after something they are not. To be confused about a Loan Shark is completely understandable.

[@misterroboto1]

that's fair. The clip was still funny, though.

[@assimilation9]

On top of that English is clearly not Henya’s first language. The Japanese language probably has a word for a loan shark but I’m going to guess that their word for shark isn’t part of it.

Wait wait wait a minute. Henya remembers an anime about a guy that's literally called a loan shark, but seemingly forgot what the term meant.

The thing is “sharks” are named after loan sharks not the other way around, “shark” used to mean a predatory person.

Also, they tend to charge high interest rates with the intention of exploiting debtors for profit. That’s kind of important to note.
