パーカー should be translated as parka, not parker. However, it looks nothing like a parka and is really just a hoodie. Oh Japan. Confused

Cool jacket though!

It's more specifically a "transliteration" than a translation. But, yes, the "er" isn't needed. And the diacritic on your "ハ" should be a handakuten, rather than a dakuten. I think it accurately describes the idea behind this.

They're about 3 months to late for this, if you ask me.

Wha- Shocked

Why would they make a merchandise based off of by far the shittiest and most unpopular of the Servants? Confused


Know what would REALLY sell like hot cakes? Alexander's T-Shirt! Ex-Large.

And scarves are mufflers. Fun times with words!

But seriously, this is the stuff of nightmares; too expensive and the creeptastic face.
