If I lived on the nu metal planet I'd flee to Earth.

I'm guessing Riko-run's family name is written 七星? So she's named after the Pleiades I guess? Or would that not be the case because in Japan it's traditionally considered to be a cluster of only six stars?

Yep, it is. If you notice, I also add the original characters of their name above and below the English translation because that's where the pronunciations of the kanji are placed in the raw Japanese.

Thanks for the translation, but I have to ask, since the -run comes from the name of her planet, is there any reason in particular why you went with Korn instead of Korun? I know both are fine was to adapt the name, but leaving the "run" as is would make more sense to me.

Ah, yep, it's mainly because it's a proper noun and I would presume that the name of her planet was just ported into Japanese as Korun. In my head, it's the same way I would translate アース as "Earth" instead of "Aahs"
