Ace Attorney Day 24 << Day 23 || Day 25 >>
I wish we got to hear the dialogue between Edgeworth and Wright at the hospital.
I'm very proud of this drawing. Wish I took a little bit more time referencing the defense badge during the sketching phase because the penning was a bit funky. Still, hands are a terror and I'm happy how it turned out.

成歩堂龍一。この黄色いポスターは何かしら?
naruhodō ryūichi. Kono kiiroi posutā wa nani kashira?
Naruhodo Ryuichi. What is this yellow poster?
ああ。それは《掛け軸》だよ。描かれている女のヒトは･･･.....
ā. Sore wa “kakejiku” da yo. Egaka rete iru on'na no hito wa.....
Ah, that's a hanging scroll. The woman depicted is...
せんべいブトンが たたまれている。
Senbei Buton ga tata mare te iru.
The rice cracker butons are folded.
何かしら?《せんべいブトン》って。
nanikashira? “Senbei buton” tte.
What is it? "Senbei Buton"
ウスくてペッタリした、おせんべいみたいなフトンだよ。
usu kute pettari shita, o senbei mitaina futon da yo.
It's a thin, sticky futon, like a rice cracker.
この国じゃ、そう言うの。
kono kuni ja, sō iu no.
That's what we say in this country.
アメリカで言えば････
《ビスケットタオルケット》かな。
Amerika de ieba “bisuketto taoruketto” ka na.
In America, it would be... "Biscuit towel blanket."
そ、そうなの。
････勉強になったわ。
-so,-sōna no. Benkyō ni natta wa.
Oh, that's right... I learned something.
If everything is clear with the scroll or, as Karuma called it, the "yellow poster", then the following dialogue simply blew my mind. Let's figure it out.
The first thing that causes misunderstanding is the "senbei buton" that Naruhodo talks about.
Senbei (煎餅), also spelled sembei, is a type of Japanese rice cracker.
It is served as a snack during tea ceremonies, festivals, and other celebrations.
Which, by the way, Naruhodo himself explains a little later.
Now about "buton".
This is a slang word meaning "futon".
The kanji for "futon" is written as 布団 [futon] and read as [buton]. There is also the spelling ぶとん, where ぶ is read as [bu].
The difference in pronunciation:
ブトン [buton] from the first sentence.
フトン [futon] where Naruhodo already explains the meaning of the word to Karma.
And now together:
Shiki-buton which became hard and flat like a senbei (a Japanese rice cracker). That’s why it is called senbei-buton. A futon made of cotton tends to become a senbei-buton, because the cotton fibers get entangled after absorbing moisture.
Well, you know what a futon is without me.
Next is "bisuketto taoruketto" or Biscuit towel blanket.
ビスケット [bisuketto] - biscuit
タオルケット [taoruketto] - towel-blanket
To be honest, it seemed like a bunch of words to me. Because this is the first time I've encountered a "biscuit blanket". However, a little searching yielded the result - it's a synonym for Puff quilts.
Well, now everything has become clearer. For a bit. (And how on earth does Naruhodo know such things).
It turned out to be even worse with the towel blanket. However, the word タオルケット [taoruketto] has meanings:
● towel blanket (towel (blan)ket)
● terry-cloth blanket
Well, how could I not have guessed that this was a terry blanket! And if you put everything together, then a terry-cloth quilted blanket. (Although, honestly, I couldn't even think of it, because I've only seen terry bedspreads and towels, but not blankets.)
Well, Karuma agreed, and okay, then she understood. Yes, and I agree with her last phrase, today I also learned something new.
