!! Sure! Mostly I just meant the suffixes and pronouns and “degree of politeness” and whatnot he uses that gets lost in translation.
Just saying, I’m not Japanese myself and I’m not a full-fledged expert in Japanese language and culture. I do think I generally know what I’m talking about, but if I made any mistakes in terms of interpretation please let me know!
Here’s Hawks mentioning who ranks how in terms of sheer popularity. He uses “ore” for himself (and he’s #2 in popularity). When referring to all other pro heroes, he uses the suffix ‘-san’.
We know Hawks is from Kyushu– though where in Kyushu specifically hasn’t been stated yet.
It’s pretty far from Tokyo, and irl the accent/suffixes and everything are REALLY different– though not to the degree of the Ryukyu Islands’ language differences from the rest of Japan, it can be really difficult for speakers of the standard Tokyo dialect to understand Kyushu dialects.
