What word were they using for naughty? Ecchi?
Checked the raws: "Naughty" is "ecchi" and "sexy" is "eroi".

I'm not 100% sure about Japanese slang, but I believe it shouldn't be Ecchi.
Yeah it sounds weird but JP slang never fails to confuse the western ear when not even direct english loan words keep their original meaning :meguusmug:

Raws Here
Pages 4 and 12 Rio says "ecchi" (えっち)
Page 13 Protag thinks "ero" (エッロ and エロすぎ)
Page 14 protag says "eroi" (エロい) and Rio says ecchi (えっち)
Page 15 protag says "tottemo ecchi" (とってもえっち)

Can't fault the TL, I see no way this can be localized properly in a way that won't seem like weird logic jumping.

Thanks! Seems like they're using homonyms of multiple words, which is confusing. TL did a good job.
