Adventure Quest freak Posts: 2,323 Group: Kunoichi Graphics Team Member #498 Joined: December 11, 2004	I guess it implies that Hayate is her brother and that instead of calling him "Hayate", she just calls him brother. It's a confusing concept that sounds so good to be true

Many characters say the same thing but they give different English translations. I think that they just try to translate to a level that everyone can understand easily. I mean, in American we don't call our older brothers "brother." It's strange that they cut out culture difference by offering loose translations, yet at the same time they provide only Japanese diolauge.

Seems like if you left "brother" and "sister" alone too long you'd have an incestuous situation. Of course, they never really say that she likes him that way, but it's implied. And what about Ayane? The instruction book said that she "admires" Hayate but wouldn't admit it. Isn't he her half brother?
