are you saying in japan everybody calls everyone else by their last name what the hell why were FRIENDS im not allowed to call you by your first name do you have to swap spit with someone before they get to use it
It's very simple, POLNAREFF. [just gonna casually outline the point there]
Given names imply a certain level of familiarity. I suppose that you could compare it to calling someone by a nickname in most other contexts. Everyone calls me 'Kakyoin' because there's a sense of formality to family names that I prefer. Only my family calls me 'Noriaki'. ['Family' here having a loose definition.]
In Jotaro's case, I don't think he cares that much. When I met him I was already addressing him informally and he never bothered to correct me, so I just kept doing that after things got a little less chaotic.
Did you completely overlook that all of us used each other's last names aside from Jotaro? Constantly? I know you tend to miss details like that, but I thought it was a little obvious.
[Huh! Well. This is interesting, and not something he really thought meant all that much. Japan is weird, and way too weird about shit that isn't all that important, but he's not going to be a dick about it.]
i was following all your lead all right i was the one who joined last

Date: 2016-04-03 06:51 am (UTC)just don't do it like that. this is important to me, so at least give me the chance to say 'you can call me noriaki if you want to' first.
