I was going to make a Bandit Keith joke, and then she turned out to not be American, just like him!

I was wondering how her speech was in the original text, and the page at the end explains it well enough. Considering her story, having her speak like a more exaggerated version of Applejack or the Dukes of Hazzard fits perfectly.

It was mentioned in the TL notes, but some people ignore them, so I'll expand on it a little bit.

Her character is a play on the "Yamato Nadeshiko" character trope. "Yamato Nadeshiko" are ideal representations of traditional Japanese beauty. Naddy hated that her parents were trying to force her to become one, so she became the exact opposite of what her name would suggest, becoming an Ameriboo (a non-American person who is overly infatuated with American culture).

Just because of some tapes (iirc)... Yeah, no reason lol. (By now there are many worse than her in terms of mentality, but it doesn't change the fact that it's a stupid reason.)
You really need to improve your reading comprehension cause if you're saying "because of some tape" I'm afraid that your brain is thoroughly cooked. I won't explain it since the comments before me already explain it perfectly. And how does "there are many worse than her in term of mentality" a valid response here? It's not a competition and if you think it is, then I genuinely feel sorry for you cause you probably have the shitties childhood there is that you need to constantly compare people's trauma

From Texas myself and just reading her texts just has me cackling. I really like the liberties taken for translating her. Already one of my favorite gfs

I'm honestly more impressed that the author included the cultural differences between Japan and America when it comes to dating.

You wear shoes inside?! Americans what the fug
Not everyone, but most of us yeah.

There's little to no point of taking shoes off when you just know one of the younger kids in the family is about to come show off a mud pie at any moment, or leave deadly LEGO traps designed to cripple people.

I love this manga but I sincerely hope she either stops speaking like that or the translator finds a different way to convey it because by God it's painful to read.

All she's missing is a gun. But I'll let her slide since she's a teacher. But she better be using the imperial system

I've only seen your comment now so sorry for the time gap, I have a few things to say, first my reading comprehension is fine, look at the time stamps of my original comment and the one you replied to, it's over a year in gap, obviously I won't remember her entire schtick, I commented about others being worse than her with their "unique" qualities being even further deranged, but ofc you needed to find a way to dig deeper to find a meaning that wasn't there to begin with, it's no response it's just my opinion it has nothing to do with her having trauma which I forgot about, I expressed that the idea was bad imo.
And as for my childhood which you know jack$hit about, tell me Mr. psychologist, what is the diagnosis? Too much of an opinion???
