Translating the title
(may contain spoilers)



So today i decided to do the "Good" ending, and while i had the game on the background running on auto mode i decided to look up what: "Doki-Doki literatire club". means. So when i went to Google Translate i typed in the titel and Google Translate was left on reconise language and it detected it first a Hungary, (me guessing it was Japanese) i changed it to Japan. The titel got translated to: "Waar zijn we?" (its Dutch, since im Dutch -Where are we?- translated to English).
I dont know alot about Google's Translator but i know you can change it yourself... But i dont think someone actually took the time to change the title translation to: "Where are we?)
But something i found out while writing this and playing around with Google Translate is: You can actually use Japanese letters (sorry, dont know the name of these) while you have the normal ABC letters. When i did this the title changed to: "どきーどき ぃてらつれ Cぅb!". When i then flipped the language (Japanese to Dutch) and back the translation change to: "Waar ben je?"(Again Dutch -Where are you?- translated to English.

I dont know if this is pure buggyness of Google Translate, translating Japanes figures to normal ABC figures, or that: "Doki-Doki Literature Club" actually: "Where are we?" means...
If someone with actually knownledge of the Japanese language please take this is a small help

this is actually so hilariously wrong i was laughing histerically as i was reading it

Doki-Doki is the japanese onomatopoeia for pouding heart or heartbeart.

If you collect all CGs by save/loading the game before the different choices, the dialogue and the note at the end are a bit different. Although the end result is still the same.
