Edit: That's all five titles solved! Well done, everyone!

Something I've noticed as I've posted these quizzes is that, generally, with each passing quiz, fewer people respond. This has created a bit of a pile-up of unsolved titles, and leads me to wonder if I might be able to get more responses if I provide some extra hints right off the bat — as opposed to waiting to see if anybody asks for a hint. Therefore, this quiz consists entirely of unsolved titles from previous quizzes, but with some extra hints right off the bat. This will probably be my last conlang quiz for a while, and if there are still some unsolved titles from this "stockpile" left after this point, I might just reveal them? I dunno.

The previous posts linked above have some discussions and glosses of other anime that might help you. The plot descriptions in these quizzes are based on those from Anilist, so you can use that site for reference. You can also use things like title structure, character names, and occasional numerals to help you figure things out, or you can ask me for hints like the meanings of individual words, and I may or may not provide. The hints I've provided right off the bat might make some of these way too easy, but that's just how it goes.

When you make a guess, please spoiler your answer. If you're right, I will reply with the Evangelion congratulations emoji and provide glosses. I can't guarantee that every translation is perfect, because despite inventing this language, it is still not my first language. I will however only retroactively edit the translations when I've made particularly egregious mistakes; smaller mistakes I'll just leave in.


Some hints not specific to any title

Deciphering character namesThe lengths of names may be of use but don't expect them to perfectly match their lengths in Hepburn/English. Likewise initials might not always match the Hepburn.

Names are inflected with a masculine suffix -a and a feminine suffix -e, but to prevent hiatus these go through the following sound changes:

① {a(ː).V → Vː|V = any vowel} — as in *Sakura-eSakuré

② {O(ː).V → ø(ː)|O = round vowel} — as in *Tomoyo-eTomoyǒ, or *Kló-aKlő

③ {E(ː).V → jV(ː)|E = unrounded front vowel} — as in *Miyuki-aMiyukya

The sound change for front vowels may trigger further sound changes:

{Tj → TT|T = alveolar consonant} — but note that alveolar geminates are realized as palatals

ji(ː) → iː

In that order.

Note however that proper nouns occasionally do not refer to characters, in which case the gender the name is inflected as may not be of much use to you.

Other revelations about the grammar and word derivationIt has by this point been cracked or revealed that...

  1. -t́ forms verbs and -ćk forms active participles.
  2. -v is a suffix used to form the construct state. This means that the following word modifies or possesses the previous.
  3. The root ruň means "head"; it is the root in sokruňeynevńe.

KONOSUBA - God's blessing on this wonderful world!

Kazuma Satou decides that today is the day to get out of the house for a bit. Since he dies, pointlessly, it's clearly a bad choice. The goddess who greets him in the afterlife, however, offers him a chance to be reborn in a world not unlike that of a video game, and as a bonus she'll even throw in a cool item or power! Can't possibly be a bad choice, right? Except he arrives with no money at all, dead average skills, and his "bonus" isn't useful at all--since he picked the goddess, Aqua, herself. How are the two of them supposed to defeat the evil Devil King and live happily ever after? Well, for them, it probably starts with day laboring rather than adventuring. And it's only going to get more disappointing from there!

spoilerI scanned the gloss but mostly focused on the title with the gloss lana meaning world, thinking through isekai that I know that may have that in the title. It's not a genre that I'm familiar with so nothing came to mind, so then I did the opposite and thought of 'popular isekai' and went that way. I passed over konosuba at first. Id never watched it so i didn't clock the long title kono subarashii sekai. It was only in my third mental pass through that I was like wait a minute. Looked up anilist after to confirm my hunch
