What's the similarity between spoiler[Fuu and Fuko], other than they both have spoiler[Fu] in their romanized names?

Based on the first and third clues, I'm going to guess that this is spoiler[Mugen (B) reading Fuu's diary (A) in episode 12 of Samurai Champloo].


Correct.

New quote. From the dub, which just reorders what's said in the subs:

Character A: “Hmmm, that’s weird.”
Character B: “What do you mean?”
Character A: “I don’t feel like barfing at all anymore thanks to that flat chest of yours.”
Character B: “I’m glad I could help!”

Hint #1: spoiler[Even though other characters present described the triggering incident as sexual harassment, Character B was hardly being sarcastic with her second line; in fact, she was chirpily happy.]

Char. A is spoiler[ Laharl, Char. B is Flonne, Anime is Disgaea. Context: It's been a while, but if I remember correctly, Laharl just did a faceplant into Jennifer's big chest. I think her sexiness is more than he can handle and it sickens him. His antidote is Flonne's pettanko build.]

Correct! That series have a handful of good scenes out of 12 episodes, and that was one of them.

Next up is from the subs:

"You've shown me the rough stone you've just cut from the rock. You've worked hard. You're wonderful. There's no need to rush now. Take your time and polish it."

Hint No. 1: spoiler[The speaker uses digging out and polishing gemstones as a metaphor encouraging the addressee to uncover and polish her talents.]

Hint No. 2: spoiler[The skill the speaker is encouraging in his young friend to polish is her interest in writing. Because the main character is a doll at the speaker's shop, she promised he'd be the first to read her story.]

I worry I'm being unintentionally vague when I don't get any guesses on a quote. Hopefully this hint will clear things up.

Hint No. 3: spoiler[The well-dressed, feline doll that addressee makes a character in her story also stars in a spinoff movie from the same studio. The doll is very important to the speaker, because it reminds him of the past.]

I haven't seen it but your hints seem to fit what I know of it. Could it be spoiler[Mr Nishi to Shizuku Tsukishima in Whisper of the Heart]?

Thanks

From the dub

A: Hey there, pretty good shooting. Oh! Look out!

B: So, are you alone? Maybe we can have a little fun together?

A: Virtual fun doesn’t really turn me on. I want the real thing, Babe.


From the sub

A: You’re pretty good. Here they come!

B: Are you alone? Why don’t we play together?

A: I much prefer the real thing to virtual reality.
