Funny Bits in Star Ocean 2 (74)

Apparently this girl was more than a little concerned about the name she's given to her robot; however I don't really know in what way a name like 'Bobot' could be considered a BAD name. Maybe it's just my ignorance in the matter.

Before going to the Sanctuary of Linga, our adventurers split up: while the girls are looking around town, some in search of an easier-to-come-by linguist, some looking to buy additional Skills, Claude proves once again to be the true leader of the group, thanks to his wonderful plan. He'll go to Bowman's alone and lure him out with the excuse that some other person is in trouble: while he's busy with attending his favorite hobby, Claude will kidnap her wife Nineh and blackmail him as needed.

However, despite his cunning plan, Claude hadn't considered a somewhat unpredictable situation: right in front of Bowman's house is the girl they saw when entering the town, with her radio-controlled car, robot or whatever beside her. Since he would have looked suspicious this way, Claude gives up his plan and resumes his interst in that little blue machine.

Meet Precis F. Neumann (I think the F. stands for 'Von') and her favorite toy, Bobot! At first Precis thinks Claude is trying to pick her up, but after the disappointing revelation that he's more interested in Bobot she becomes even more intrigued with him. More as it develops.
