YabaIRyS, Faufau, Fuwa-chan, Moco-chan?
I consider YabaIRyS more of an epithet than a nickname. I can't imagine anyone using it to replace her name like "I wonder what YabaIRyS (IRyS) is doing", only as a description replacing yabai like "Bruh, YabaIRyS (yabai)" in response to something she did/said.
Forgetting Faufau is pretty indefensible. It's been a long time, but that puts it in the same boat as Kronini and Sanana which I did remember.
I wasn't sure if Fuwa-chan and Moco-chan count as nicknames or if they're just how you say their names in Japanese. I guess dropping the last syllable is what makes it a nickname as opposed to just their real name + Japanese honorific?
I just think of the twins as like... The Bau Bau Twins.
I’d move Goomba up a tier, but other than that it’s pretty good.
Funny how even among the top tier there’s a big gap imo: you’re sometimes reminded of Ina’s full name by “Mama’nis” and “Ane’nis” existing, plus she (rarely) introduces herself with it. “Baelz” is “Subaru is the manager of an esports club”-level of forgotten lore.
Bijou didn't even know how to pronounce it lol
Irys should have her own categorys. Her normal name is accepted but she also nicknames everything else based on her own name.
I also don't understand the "too cutesy" tier despite watching Mumei and Gura a lot....
Is YabaiRyS her nickname or real name? I can't tell
Honestly I havent called Biboo "Bijou" since like her debut.
Also lmao I had to to think hard and remember that Ina and Bae are technically nicknames
Biboo should also be "that's a nickname?"
