    Nothing too special. Rough translation but you get the point.

    (Itiman) Samurai AF pretty much sucks... but it looks cool.
    (Meido) There aren't many people on my LS so I can't get it.
    (Modecca) Hmm...
    (Itiman) There also aren't enough girls... (lol)
    (Meido) I joined an LS on Wednesday but every time I login there is nobody on...
    (Itiman) lololol
    (Itiman) If it is cool with you I can help you out
    (Meido) There is nobody on so I can't get my AF
    (Itiman) Zanshin...
    (Meido) I wonder if you guys aren't recruiting, I wanna go to your LS...

    I don't see why, most of what JPs say is just as dull and asinine as what NAs say.

    Literally it says:
    It is the monster place for flag of holla.
    It is the monster place for flag of dem.
    It is the monster place for flag of mea. DEATH!

    So maybe something like, The monster flag for area Holla.

    I guess. I dunno what that death is doing there.

    It reads a little differently to me, with those three lines just being debug messages basically saying that the flag (of Holla, Mea, or Dem) was selected and as a response, a monster spawns. Nothing special.

    The "death" is probably just because it's phonetically similar to "desu" and the programmers were bored and trying to amuse themselves.

    Yeah, that sounds more like it.

    Death is still lol, I guess they got bored, no real reason for switching to katakana for the second desu as far as I see either.

    What does my evil twin say?
    You've come back!!!!!

    The implication is that it's maybe been a while since he's seen you; it's literally read like you came back from the dead.

    I'm having a hard time with this one; I only remembered the last line from a class I took a long time ago. It's clearly a yojijukugo, and with the first and last lines I think she's referring to the Four Noble Truths of Buddhism:

    1) Life is suffering
    2) The origin of suffering is attachment to things
    3) It's possible to stop suffering (by detachment)
    4) There's a path to end suffering

    shogyo mujo: everything is transient
    zesho meppo: everywhere [there] is destruction
    shometsu metsui: destruction [of everything] ends
    jakkumetsu iraku: freedom from one's desires is true bliss

    First and last lines are easy to look up, and I'd be curious to see a better take from someone much better at the language than I am.

    Ahhh that would explain it. I quit for a few years and made a return.
    That was nice of him. ~ Thanks!

    No, he definitely is: Amattaru tried to kill Mattaru, and is shocked to see he is still alive.

    This part's actually talking about how SAM AF2 sucks (the first three characters are read Saotome, as in the SAM AF2 set).
    I wonder if that auto-translate Zanshin is some funny way of writing zannen (similar to {Config}ulations or something)
