So yeah, not really a plot idea, but I think we should have some verbal puns. For example, they talk about a god that turns out to be a paper and then the person is like, "I thought you meant paper!" or something like that.
For those who don't get it: Kami means both paper AND god in Japanese.

Except those aren't as funny in English... I don't know why. But English puns were never as funny as the Japanese ones.

You could you use the desert and dessert one, because that works in both English and Japanese.

Well, not necessarily, since Japanese DOES have a word for "desert".

I know they do, but the pun still works in both languages.

Only if you say "desert" as 「デザート」 instead of 「砂漠」.
