- Chaz being called "mister"
Just started a new playthrough after not touching it for a couple of years..... Did the Hunter's Guild mission to find Rocky the dog. Why does Chaz feel that something bad is going to happen when he is called "mister" by the little girl? Is there something lost in translation? Maybe anyone who read the original Japanese script can tell. |
That'd be my guess. Something that makes sense in Japanese superstition. Another awkward translation bit is this: http://legendsoflocalization.com/qa-whats-so-funny-about-this-line-in-phantasy-star-iv/ (^spoilers, of a sort, if you haven't gotten the Land Rover yet) |
It could just be that Chaz, still being a teenager, finds being called "mister" unsettling in its implications of how old he looks. Japanese culture is obsessed with staying young, after all.

I just thought being called mister is a way of being addressed as an authority figure, and Chaz really is a reluctant leader. Like Jon Snow. Laissez les bons temps rouler. |
...well, Chaz does know nothing for pretty much the whole game... "These words don't come easily to me for some reason, but I'm inclined to agree with the ninja's advice." ~ Joe |
