        I wonder why “great” and “sword” need to be Katakana

            I know, but why? Not trying to be a hater but why not just use the native words?

              Same reason some English people will use Japanese words? I don’t know.

          They transliterated it as English: “Great” being written like “Go Ra To” or something similar instead of using the Kanji 大 pronounced as “Dai”. Same with Sword, they wrote it like “Sa Do” or something, instead of 剣 pronounced as “Ken”.

        Eyy I just watched Red Ranger, extremely enjoyable for how stupid it is. I bet I’d have loved power rangers if I watched it as a kid

          I watched too much of power rangers on TV as a child.
          As a result, I don’t find the anime enjoyable.

          Even though the premise was fun, I just couldn’t tolerate it enough to feel the fun.

      When I took a geometry test in eighth grade, I got a point deducted because I wrote ASS instead of SSA (side-side-angle) when calculating angles and side lengths of a triangle. Still got the right answer though

          In a “show your workings” questions it makes sense.

            There’s no difference between SSA and ASS in that context so it’s pointless to punish a student for that

      Why is that not ASA? Or even ASSA.

        Because they knew exactly what they were doing, obviously.

        Because substation alpha is SSA so they just reversed it.

        Because it’s funny.
