  Ok I don’t watch this anime, but this translation is really interesting lol. Do Japanese people also use the -ception suffix? Or did they have something similar before the movie Inception came out?

    Can’t speak specifically for “-ception”, but English subbers sometimes use Westernisms for untranslateable Japanese idioms. An example that stood out for me is in Steins;Gate. The original 2ch inside joke “nullpo… gah!” joke was translated as “never gonna… give you up”.
