Inori Minase's message “ガチ兄さん様” (Gachi Niisan-sama) is a bit cryptic and its interpretation may vary depending on the context. Here is a breakdown of the possible meaning:

  • ガチ (Gachi): This word is used in Japanese to describe something that is “serious” or “authentic.” In colloquial contexts, it can refer to someone who is very passionate or committed to something.
  • 兄さん (Niisan): Means “older brother” or “brother.” In Japanese culture, it can be a respectful or affectionate way to refer to someone who is slightly older or with whom you have a close relationship.
  • 様 (Sama): This is an honorific that denotes great respect. It is more formal than other honorifics such as “-san” and is used to show great respect for the person you are addressing.

In the comment forums, users responded with humor and disbelief. Some of the notable reactions included:

  • «He will steal your name!».
  • «Did he come to steal your name?».
  • «A serious discussion will probably begin».
  • «Incredible!».
  • «That's funny, haha».
  • «What? 😳 Incredible!».
  • «Is this a HeartBookmark campaign?».
