Restless Souls/Technology: Difference between revisions

Geyser explicitly said "Chinese" because there are no Japanese examples of this word on the net but both language use Kanji. On the other hand Japanese not always give Kanji the same meaning as Chinese do, let alone compound nouns? So, the interpretation and use of 捣蛋鬼 is a stress because unproven. Let's check this. It turns out there is a Chinese wikipedia page for [[wp:zh:%E6%8D%A3%E8%9B%8B%E9%AC%BC|捣蛋鬼]]. It is actually not about "troublemaker" but a mythological being, a "trickster". When you follow the link to the Japanese version there is a Katakana writing for trickster トリックスター meaning there is no real Japanese equivalent. A trickster can be described as troublemaker but that does not describe the character in its wholeness and Konoko definitively does not look like she has her situation and the other characters "under control". The Daodan gives Konoko powers that potentially grands her control but by Geysers earlier words the Daodan is symbolized "lose of control". So the whole 捣蛋鬼 interpretation begins to contradict itself.
