So after decades of people saying "daughtress" or "dauntless" it turns out that the name is Dotrace taken from the Japanese anime industry term "dou-trace" meaning taken from the same traced lineart
>>
We're still gonna be using Daughtress.
>>
>>23807667
neat!
>>
>>23807667
Daughtress is the official spelling, it's on the Gunpla boxes.
>>
"Dauntless" doesn't fit, even though it's a far cooler title. It's still Daughtress.

>it turns out that the name is Dotrace
No it isn't.
>>
>>23807667
yes that's where the name came from, but that doesn't change that it's name is Daughtress
>>
this is like being autistic enough to complain that we immediately need to stop saying zaku and start saying zako instead because that's the word that the name zaku was based on

or that we need to stop saying aznable and say azanour instead
>>
>>23807667
doutrace sounds cool...
>>
>>23812579
Said literally no one, ever.
>>
>>23813039
he said it though
>>
>>23815477
I guess that mean's (you)'re no one.
>>
>>23815487
I'm not >>23812579 you mental patient
>>
>>23808701
But how do you pronounce Char?
>>
>>23818692
>>
>>23819190
kek based
>>
>>23807667
So where'd they get Jenice from?
>>
>>23819190
Couldn't fit the images in their entirety?
>>
>>23822052
All the SRA MS are named after months
>>
>>23808701
No, this is saying the name is supposed to be Zaku because it's derived from zako and you're a drooling retard for calling it ZuCue

... I'm not disagreeing that this is stupid.
>>
>>23829560
are you really using a dynasty warriors game as the authority on what names should be in enligh
>>
>>23829606
Sure.
>>
>>23829606
I mean the first one was, and still is one of the most significant original stories post ZZ that Puru plays a larger role in.
>>
>>23829606
>enligh
Are you okay?

>>23829606
ser?

>Ple2 uses Char colours

What did they mean by this?
>>
>>23807667
>Garrod comes from "wa GA MICHI wo iku" (going my way)
>ga michi
>ga road
>garrod
it's impressive really
>>
>>23835874
Romanization' doesn't quite match pronunciation.
>>
>>23835848
I don't recall Char having yellow trim in his color scheme.
>>
>>23807667
Did pic have anything to do with this alleged epiphany?
>>
>>23835874
Now I know what to say if I ever have to hitchhike in Japan.
>>
>>23845923
He's commenting on a picture posted alongside that one, not that one for some reason.
>>
>>23848272
Why didn't he post the picture in question then?
>>
>>23849612
Maybe he didn't have it.
>>
>>23849612
https://x.com/Char_Tweet/status/2040751837461041277

I think this is his source. The twitter user only posted text for that part, alongside the picture in the op.
>>
>>23851001
That raises the question of how the OP knows what the accompanying picture was.
>>
>>23852352
He has the image in question, he just decided to hold out on us.
>>
>>23841764
He does in his uniform
>>
>>23807769
Why? You know you are wrong.
>>
>>23853743
Not his mobile suits, though.
>>
>>23807667
Paula is actually Perla
See https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/シンデレラ_(1950年の映画)#キャラクター
>>
>>23856540
What about Pala? Who's Paula, anyway?
>>
>>23856593
>What about Pala?
It's パーラ not パラ
>>
>>23856603
It's also ウッソ not ユソ; doesn't stop everyone from romanizing it as Üso.
>>
>>23856540
I begin to suspect all the etymologies you've pushed in this thread are nothing more than spurious associations.
>>
>>23860389
I've only made two posts >>23856540
>>23856603
So basically you're an idiot.
>>
>>23860461
Rather unreasonable for you to call me an idiot when all other etymological claims were also made under the name Anonymous.
>>
>>23807774
Reminds me of that old illustration of Claire Redfield.
>>
>>23854292
Yeah, but if some suit at Bamco says it's>>23808563 on the model box, it is so.
>>
>>23838420
>'
>>
>>23851001
And what authority has that poster on the issue?
>>
>>23829463
January? June? Which month?
>>
>>23858414
Not sure what's more egregious, that or Puru.
>>
>>23870117
June.

Jenice -> June
Jurag -> July
Septem -> September
Octape -> October

Febral -> February
>>
>>23871277
Nothing wrong with Puru. Trying to force Ple is caused by a complete lack of understanding of phonetics in both English and Japanese. It's low IQ shit.
>>
>>23871283
>Febral -> February

how the fuck did this never click
>>
>>23871283
>Jurag
That anything like Juracq?
>>

>>23873825
>implying
Hello retard. People is pronounced /ˈpēp(ə)l/. Kys.
>>
>>23873856
Hello yourself double-retard. Take notice that "puru" doesn't apply to that phonetically. Follow your own advice.
>>
>>23807667
the image you posted has nothing to do with your post
>>
>>23872619
what?
>>
>>23873825
His post literally implies he's aware of the etymology of the name.
>>
>>23875675
Then he has no excuse for insisting on misspelling her surname.
>>
>>
>>23881364
That's not the usual pair.
>>
>>23871283
I didn't know the Febral preceded the others.
>>
>>23883386
It has the same designation number as the Zeong
>>
>>23856540
That makes a lot of sense because Paula would be ポーラ or パウラ while the character is actually パーラ
>>
>>23883712
So how do they explain the Octape?
