I never thought id see the day where paimon talks in first person :o

This is them finally owning up to wanting Paimon to be the MC and the only way they can do that is to make it more self-aware and "normal". I am genuinely expecting the traveller to disappear from the story at some point leaving Paimon on the quest to find out what happened to them.

I don't want to break your world, but "Paimon is Paimon" was only in the English localization, in Chinese, Japanese (and I'm not sure, but) Korean, she always says "my name is Paimon"
