Reception

Japanese tennis player Naomi Osaka referred to the character as her "first crush" during an interview with Teen Vogue.[3]

gollark: I do know about this.
gollark: It doesn't help that various governments and such also seem to not want anonymous online communications.
gollark: Maybe people will get sufficiently annoyed by this sort of practice to get it to stop at some point, or maybe we're doomed to a dystopia of social acceptability.
gollark: I was explicitly told at school recently not to say things people might disagree with online because people might take it into account on job/etc applications.
gollark: That sounds like a pretty complicated adaptation, how does cancer end up with it?
