I'll snag this open turn with an easy quote. Smile

A: Let's hear it.
B: It's a complicated story.
A: Just say it.
B: You see... I'm really hungry.
A: So?
B: That's all.
A: That's all?
B: That's all.

That's spoiler[Ayu Tsukimiya speaking to Yuichi Aizawa in the first episode of Kanon], if I'm not mistaken.

Wait, did 4750G confirm your answer through PM or something? I don't see it.

Urgh, I appear to have jumped the gun here. Sorry about that. Night shifts can do strange things to a man's mind.

I'm sorry to hear that Fifth B, but on the bright side, you are correct. Smile

My brain was just not working right today, but at least I was right. It would have made me like an even bigger tool if I had been wrong and assumed I was right. If I'm online in time, there's not much chance of a spoiler[Kanon] quote getting by me, if I do say so myself, so I must have just gotten ahead of myself there.

Alright, from the dub

A: She's with her brother and sister? What of her foster parents? Where are they?

B: I'm told their mother fell sick and passed away from her illness several years ago. As for their father, he lost his life in a heroic battle against assassins who were attempting to kill [C's title].

A: Surely that child must be cursing her fate. She must be utterly miserable.

B: No, highness, it was quite the opposite when I first saw her. She seemed very cheerful and openhearted.

A: I see.

And quotes from this series aren't going to get past me if I'm online at the time. spoiler[This is Chris Armalite (B) talking to the Queen (A) about Pacifica (C - title is the series' name) in Scrapped Princess. I don't remember exactly where in the series this happens, but it's when Chris goes to see the Queen after his big battle with Shannon over Winia.]

I had another quote that I was going to use, but this one so struck my fancy when I saw it yesterday that it jumped to the top of the heap. From the subs:

“Dad. . .Mom. . . Thank you for everything. [Older] Sis. . . Even in the afterlife, I won’t forget that you ate my flan.”

(Note: I inserted "older" because the Japanese dub specifically says "Onee-chan" at that point but it's not reflected in the subtitles.)

Somewhat belated. . . .

Hint #1: spoiler[The nickname for the location where this takes place is also the title of the source series.]

Hint #2: spoiler[The speaker, who is friend of a friend to one of the two main protagonists, has a bad habit of getting stuck in exceedingly dangerous situations throughout the series, but this one she actually volunteered for.]

spoiler[Kozue from Occult Academy, when she volunteers to do an experiment involving near death experiences. She says this as the experiment starts.]

Incidentally, the crunchyroll subtitles are a bit different. When I was checking to verify I had the right context, I saw that they were: "Dad... Mom... Thank you for everything. Big Sis... Even in the afterlife, I won't forget what you did with my pudding."

Perhaps that's why I had such a hard time recognizing the quote at first. Though I didn't get either of the two previous quotes either, despite both being from series I've seen and enjoyed and knowing that I had heard them somewhere before.

Mad_Scientist is exactly correct.

The version I used is from the official NISA release (which I'm currently in the process of reviewing - and my, it's a nice-looking boxed set). It would seem to indicate that they did their own subtitling rather than just using Crunchyroll's.
