Were Yuka Takaoka and Phoenix Luna dating?

[edit]

This question has been the cause of many edits and reversions on this article so it would be lovely to get to the bottom of it. I found a transcription of the actual court case testimony

https://www.news-postseven.com/archives/20191205_1501710.html/2

──正式に交際していた?

 してないです。


It's all in Japanese so I'm not 100% sure how to interpret this question and answer.


Google Translate says:

──Were you officially dating?

 I do not.


DeepL says:

─ Were you in a formal relationship?

 I was not.


At face value it seems clear they weren't dating but I recall discovering an alternate interpretation a few months ago, cannot remember what it is now. Unless someone can justify otherwise, I suggest laying this to rest and editing the article to say that they were not dating. Cuzlocked (talk) 12:34, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Quite a number of sources consistently use "boyfriend": "her boyfriend Phoenix Luna", "to stab her boyfriend", "attempted to murder her boyfriend", "plunging a kitchen knife into the stomach of her boyfriend" etc. etc. etc. The changed being attempted on the article over the last many days lack any supporting citations. Per WP:BLP, they will be removed without such citations. --Hammersoft (talk) 17:49, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Also, I concur the translation is problematic. Tossing it into Google Translate yields confusing text. Regardless, this is a primary source and needs to be used carefully. I'd like to see a reliable, secondary source that supports them not being romantically involved. --Hammersoft (talk) 17:56, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
