Scientists will say it was a global illusion. Beaware - Jesus will never walk in flesh again. After WW3 - rise of the “ man of peace“ from the East = Antichrist - the most powerful, popular, charismatic and influential leader of all time. Many miracles will be attributed to him. He will imitate Jesus in every conceivable way. Don`t trust „pope“ Francis = the False Prophet - will seem to rise from the dead - will unite all Christian Churches and all Religions as one. One World Religion = the seat of the Antichrist. Benedict XVI is the last true pope - will be accused of a crime of which he is totally innocent.

@Dmon ! jouzu literally means good at without any condescending undertone, normal jp word. But they happen to say it often to foreigners with not so fluent Japanese, in an encouraging way, they're so happy someone is learning their language. Some fluent foreign speakers claim to never get jouzud. This + some dougen and you get yourself the jouzu meme.

[@nootics]

@Dmon ! i agree, but there could be some other factors as well that made jp jouzu so popular, like the amount of people learning japanese and or visiting japan. I've heard they act similarly in korea (i think matt vs japan made a vid with a korean speaker mentioning that). Heard it from some other places in asia too. So this jouzu thing might happen in many places. Could have been that interest in japan on the internet (by people who happen to be memers gamers weebs) made this meme a thing.

Shu was a great guest, she seems very dedicated to VA to have wanted to do that from a young age.

@oniku niku niku niku oniku niku Ok so, you should know about School Idol Festival? That was the original game. What they're talking about here is SIF All Stars, which is another game that features μ's, Aqours and Nijigasaki Girls High School (basically another group). It's a game that takes place in another universe sort of where all three groups exist together at the same time and can interact with each other unlike the original SIF and show where they aren't operating at the same time as each other. In SIFAS, the main story revolves around the Nijigasaki Girls School Idol Club. In the second 'season' of the main story, they introduce a new antagonistic character called Lanzhu Zhong who has a friend called Mia Taylor. Unlike the main cast of all the previous groups, Lanzhu and Mia are unique in that their characters are not pure Japanese; Lanzhu is Chinese-Japanese and Mia is from New York (? i think, can't remember). To reflect this, they hired two new seiyuu, Akina Homoto who grew up in China, and Shu who is from Australia. As such, until the introduction of Keke Tang in the newest group Liella, Lanzhu and Mia were unique in that the songs they sang were in different languages other than Jap. Mia in particular has a song called I'm still which is mostly English with a smattering of Japanese.
