It's that funny time of the year again, but honestly, a crossover between Shurato and Samurai Troopers/Ronin Warriors would be pretty cool, especially if they also bring Saint Seiya into the mix

I don't really get the Frieren one. I mean, I guess the joke is just saying she's a morning person when she's definitely not? Seems pretty basic. Though I don't think I remember her wearing a sweater at any point in the show, is that a reference or did I just forget a scene?

The joke with the DeDeDeDe one is that they removed the '' and made all the Ds in the title Ts. The translation provided in this article ignores that for some reason.

“You, the main character, are a new transfer student at the private Palpagos Academy. You will enjoy a full student life through the friendship and romance you experience with the uniquely individual friends (Pals) you meet. Whether you stay just friends with your Pals, your relationship develops into romance, or you butcher and eat them is up to you.”

I've gotten the impression that April Fool's has gotten somewhat lost in translation. It seems like some Japanese people literally understand it to be a day where you "tell a lie." Makes me wonder if pranking is just not a thing in Japan or what.

There have definitely been some American companies who have gotten into the spirit of it this year, including Pizza Hut. (Pizza-scented skin care products whose main advantage is that they are "edible.")

Pekomama was my favorite one today. Inadvertently set a new vtubing record and now I genuinely wonder if she'll actually be a vtuber due to the success.
