Zapp Branniglenn Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Not sure how a little gran gran money would interfere with a child's education. In fact I'd expect it to have the opposite effect. Must be nice to have a college fund, Kana. Also: "I could use a bag of some kind for my extra chop sticks. Do you know where they'd sell those?" "Oh sure, let's head to the Post Office."

Certain Japanese envelopes, known as 祝儀袋 shuugibukuro, are made especially for giving money/gifts. For example... Money is the most common thing to put in them, but I have been given gifts from students/coworkers before in them. Corrin jumped to conclusions and thought it was money in the envelope. Mikoto just chose the blandest looking one she could find, I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like our envelopes with its sealed opening at the end rather than a pocket being squeezed tight with some kind of ribbon. If that japanese style one is the stereotypical money giving kind, you sure the joke isn't Corrin being tripped up by a western style envelope?

Sentinel07 Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 It's okay I suppose. It's a nice joke, but it focuses on two of my least favorite characters from Fates so.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandeRampel Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 And Mikoto joins Charlotte in the "alts only who appeared in the manga" club. Now I want Greil, Tanith and Sigrun to make appearences. Don't disappoint me author. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can use any old envelope for the purpose, but parents giving children (or grandchildren, etc.) envelopes heavily implies money in both China and Japan. The picture that @Coolmanio posted is just an example of how ingrained it is in Japanese culture that they produce envelopes specifically for this.

Although now that I look at it, it looks like Mikoto just went with an ordinary bank envelope.

The picture that @Coolmanio posted is just an example of how ingrained it is in Japanese culture that they produce envelopes specifically for this. it has that kind of inplication anywhere within the traditional chinese sphere of influence (which is anything north of indonesia, west from india, and east of alaska). korea for example, we have multiple holidays where adults are expected to give money to kids. always in an envelope like that, though you CAN get fancier ones, most are just plain. and honestly money is a better gift than presents 70% of the time anyway. and I repeat, the bland looking orange-ish envelope is actually the standerd one that most ppl use anyway. I guess it might also fit becasue it was golden week recently Edited May 22, 2019 by TheBraveGallade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the background heroes. But the main thing, I think, is that I NEED THOSE CUSTARD-FILLED ORB-STYLED MONJU! Looks like the local souvenir-sweet of Askr.

Mercakete Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 (edited) I have been wanting this for so long. That is, kid versions of the characters. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one! Since Minizura was a thing, I've been hoping beyond hope that more kid heroes would be added! In the examples given, I especially NEED Ike and Ephraim! ❤️ GIMME DEM KIDDOS! (I already +10'd my M!Kana, so...) Edit: I also want a REVERSAL! Gimme child Bantu and elderly Tiki, where the latter looks after the former.
