Question: how do you guys feel about using things like Japanese honorifics and "last name, first name"? I personally don't like using honorifics in English, but I think they important in establishing relations in writing (which Japanese is in general better at doing) and that going on first-name basis also does that, since that's typically preserved for people who you share a relatively close bond with. Correct me if I'm wrong, though.Posted. Should I make up a quick diagram of what the range looks like or no?

I used them briefly at the beginning, but then I figured it would be a pain. I only use them if I really need to establish someone speaking deferentially (like Misaki talking about Chiaki XD).
