The person who received the word since it had little frequency in use compared with "ahou (stupid) or baka (foolish)" is depressed in spirits. (Although Horo is using it frequently.) I investigated it in the dictionary. Tawake is translated into "a fool; an idiot; a nitwit; a blockhead". Although I did not know, there is the following common saying in this. "tawake" writes it as "田分け (divide a rice field)". When fields are divided by a child's number, in the generation of a grandchild and a great-grandchild, an area becomes small, and since a crop decreases and the family line declines, there is a common saying of having come to mean a fool.

Even after the second time the reaction is the same.. A GREAT peace of work!! Now off to sleep (5 AM here), maybe I'll get lucky and catch a glimpse of Horo in my dream, since I do have weird dreams sometimes ^_^ |

The author has a blog but since I can't read it...
It looks somewhat girly to me, tons of pictures of cats everywhere but it could be he's just a weird guy. If it is a guy I'm very impressed with how he writes female characters. |

The second from the under, the left side is Isuna Hasekura's photo. (The right photograph is Jyuu Ayakura.) The gender is a male though it seems to be a little fat. The profile was not published on Isuna Hasakura' blog. |
