I've been meaning to do this post for a while but keep forgetting about it and doing other things lol...

Explanations of the names of the fails that happen in the ED!

Chakuseki (着席) - This is the Japanese for "Take a seat" since he landed on his board in a sitting position.

Matasaki (股裂き) - I'd say this one is close to "Splits" but the Japanese word means "groin ripper" so much more dramatic lol

Pochan (ポチャン) - The Japanese sound for a "Splash"

Utsumi joked in an interview that it was supposed to be similar to the "I'll be back" scene from the terminator.

Nutcracker - this one is pretty obvious to English speakers but apparently Utsumi had "Gold Target" written in the original storyboard.

According to Utsumi, when one of the skater staff saw it they said that there was a better slang word to use for it and told her to use Nutcracker.

In Japanese, testicles are known as kintama (金玉) which literally means gold balls.

Hitori Piledriver (一人パイルドライバー) - This means "Solo piledriver".

A piledriver, if you don't know, is a wrestling move where an opponent turns someone upside-down, and drops into a sitting or kneeling position while holding them to drive them head-first into the mat. So this is a person dropping themselves head first onto the ground.

“When he died the ravens sat in the trees outside for a week, watching. Taking turns. A horde of raccoons tried to break into the house every night, tearing at the siding. Eventually they gave up, but it was unsettling.”

Imagine if fatui Scaramouche ever got to encounter Albedo
