I think the "monster parents" thing is her way of understanding/realizing what the word "parent" means. Like, some movie has the term "monster parents" and she connected the dots like "She must be talking about my parents, so me saying 17 is the problem! --> Notto sevenbuteenu."
yeah, "monster parents" is a phrase that was borrowed into Japanese from English. it means parents who always complain to their kid's school about stuff and cause problems, basically a school child's "Karen" parents. so Marine just recognized the sound of the word "parents" from that phrase "monsutaapearentsu" that she already knew.

Wow. Kiara was kinda short with Marine, but TBH that's par for the course airport staff (Immigration/Customs/TSA) for you. So I guess you could say Kiara was preparing Marine for real life scenarios. Gambare Marine! 😲📣
Well I got to explain something. I understand that japanese people try to be as polite as possible and are very scared or stressed in that kind of situations. But these people on the airport, you must remember that's literally their job to help you and answer your easy or silly questions (where is the toilet, where to go for taxi, where is your gate). As a mariner (working on sea ships) I travel a lot around the world. Last time I travelled i met two kinds of persons. In Amsterdam I remember that KLM employees on check-in were very patient, nice and helpful. I had problem with checking my baggage (my padlock for the bag felt off and caused error on the weight). They helped me solve the problem very nicely, printed out boarding pass and directed to the safety check queue (rebuilding + covid restrictions on Schiphol). Second time I was repatriating to my country through Hamburg airport (Germany), the woman on the check-in had such german accent with the English I couldn't understand her anyhow. She asked for the things I just never heard of, I've just passed all the travel documents. She just looked very impatient and irritiated. I said "sorry but I don't clearly understand you and I don't understand what you want from me to show, I just pass you everything there". Very angrily she printed the boarding pass and didn't say anything in return. I was just perplexed and kinda sad, but that was clearly her attitude fault. Don't be scared. You are the passanger and if you are behaving nicely and kindly, or even if they see you are stressed and anxious, THEY SHOULD TRY THEIR BEST to help you out.
As long as you are not in a rush, going through an airport isn't a problem even if you have no idea what you are doing and bumble through everything. So first time traveling, just plan to be stuck there for a while.
For everyone scared of airports: I have not traveled a lot in my life but from the few flight trips I was on, airports have a lot of huge signs that make it hard to get lost, sometimes you can get confused for a short while but usually quickly you will find your way. As for people talking to you, people talk to you slowly and quietly because they are tired and in Germany they talk to you in english unless you start talking to them in german.
This reminds me of this one time a Chinese guy that basically didn't speak a lick of English was trying to get somewhere and was trying to get some help with busses to get to a place. After trying, unsuccessfully to understand and help him out, I thought "hey, I use DeepL to read Japanese novels, maybe it'll be good to use it here." So, yeah, if you ever find yourself in that situation, MTL's better than nothing.
i worked for 11 years at a small german airport, and we managed to find a solution to everything. hands, feet, google translate. we even got some employees taking some stranded passengers home for a night. i think there is nothing to be afraid of.
It's such a weird feeling to imagine that Marine will be coming to my town (Vienna). Assuming that Kiara lives here (since it's the only city in Austria and some stories from her imply that she's living in a city) or that, at least, they will visit Vienna for sightseeing and going out.
Marine: "Excuse me, Excuse me..." Kiara: "What?" Yeah, that's somewhat common in America. Most people's "customer service voice" died during the pandemic when the most insane customers started thinking it's acceptable to be asses in public. "What" is justifiable now.
I love it when Marine tries to speak English cause it's super cute. And she's not awful at it. Like her English is better than my understanding of Japanese.
Considdering they'd meet at the airport with her limited english and no german - it wouldnt happen as the austrian woukd recognize that the destination isnt Austria and make her change the order in time, yet the thought is hilarious and it probably happens a lot.
Kiara out here making the Japanese think that Austrians are extremely terrifying, can't speak English and can't believe that a 17 y.o would travel without parental supervision. In reality you'll be fine as long as you don't jaywalk, I believe that's punishable by death in the German speaking countries.
@@unluckystaravia2352 The last part was a joke, but it is illegal here so you'll run a risk of getting fined if caught. And culterally speaking its heavily frowned upon by citizens
Funny thing is that Marine isn't all that old. Yes, she is in the top 50% of ages of the Hololive talents, but not by much. She's just much worse at hiding it. 😆 (or alternatively, she doesn't care about hiding it)
You know, I always thought it's a shame that not many of the JP members go out of Japan to visit the ID or EN members, but considering how cripplingly introverted some of them are *cough* Aqua *cough* I'm not surprised
I feel like most people, especially in an airport, would try to help out if you walked up and spoke broken english to them. Probably with a non-zero amount of pointing and charades. Like "Taxi, taxi driver" "Oh you want a taxi? Okay well you'll want to leave through the exit downstairs and go to the taxi sign. Yeah, down there, look for the sign."
