Chigo LP

[Yagathai]

I think that y'all intended the Chigo LP (city-dweller setting) to be a parallel to the Ganymede LP in BW, but as far as I know the term "chigo" actually meant something more akin to "altar boy" or "acolyte", with all of the beautiful-and-innocent-young-boy-that-corrupts-the-celibate-priest implications (that's the connotation, anyway, as technically, according to the Nikkoku, it actually means "temple-run boarding school student"). In fact, there was a whole subset of literature devoted to stories of love between acolyte and priest that was popular during... well, at least the Shogunate era.

I can understand that maybe y'all didn't want to include institutionalized pedophilia in the LPs (though, considering Pegboy, maybe not), but this seems to be a rather puzzling mistake in a well-researched game. I mean, I could see Chigo as a trait attached to Acolyte, or even a trait in and of itself, but I don't think the term applies to an LP that might more properly be called "manwhore".

As far as I read, I thought Chigo was slang for a young male lover.

I'm sure it was used in that sense, sort of the way that "actress" was once used as a euphemism for "prostitute", but especially in the era in which Blossoms is set, the denotation was very different than that specific connotation.
