I translated a part of the extra page of BSD Volume 20.
AND THIS IS ME TRYING TO EXPLAIN THE JOKE…
To be honest it takes more time for me to actually get the joke, than to translate and clean and typeset this altogether lol. I’m still not 100% sure yet, but this is my interpretation:
- 10-time quiz (10回クイズ）is a game in Japan when someone is asked to repeat a word 10 times and answer to a question right after that. The point of the game is to lure the player into giving wrong answers to very simple questions. The wrong answer usually sounds very similar to what they are asked to say in the beginning.
- A popular version of the game is that the player will have to repeat the word chandelier (which is pronounced as “shanderia” in Japanese) before being asked “Who ate the poisoned apple?”. The correct answer is Snow White, but many people will slip and say Cinderella (”Shinderera” in Japanese) instead.
- So here, Dazai jumped into the right answer even before Fyodor even asked, so they both agreed that this kind of quiz is not for them lol.
