Kun! I'm not much for formality.

Depends by who i guess (obviously).

I choosed sama for fun but in reality there's no way i would like to be called with a honoric like theses.

I put sempai I feel like it'd be really cool to be someone's sempai 'cos they'd look up to you. By the way, I've never seen -kouhai used with somebody's name, only a sempai calling their underclassmen with -kun or -chan, is it possible for -kouhai to be used that way?

I actually get called with -san a lot by my classmates and often my teachers in Japanese class, and it's actually kind of frustrating because it feels particularly with my classmates that we're not close at all. I'm going to Japan next year so I hope I make some friends who'll be more familiar >_<

I jokingly refer to myself with sama but I would like to be called sama. My friend whose a year younger than me calls me sama sometimes mostly sempai and I call her kohai. People look at us weird because most of them don't know what we are talking about.

Even though I've done little to nothing to deserve it, being addressed with -sensei would be a well-needed ego boost.

-sama I've already been called loads of times, and I don't see what's so fun about that.

I chose sensei because it wouldn't annoy me and I don't know it's so much less weeaboo than the other ones. People who don't know shit about Japan or Japanese cultures say "sensei", obviously because of martial arts and martial arts movies. It's the most common term.

It depends on who's saying it. I'd prefer -san by the vast majority of people, but if they're close friends or family then -chan

i still kinda dont know how they work. I thought chan=girl, kun=guy and san= formal for both. But ive seen cases where guys are referred to as chan and girls as kun, soooooooo obviously i have no clue

I don't use "bad" words, I use SENTENCE ENHANCERS.

In Japan I was essentially always called by my first name unless it was a business situation or something similar. I guess sensei would be preferable, as I intend to continue working in industries which would add it on as a proper title (the usage expands beyond teaching), but it doesn't make a huge difference.

Really anything's fine, so long as I don't get nicknamed "Sacchan" again.

NightSwan also said that she wanted to peg me, once, but I'm not sure whether to take that as a compliment or a threat...

as long as it ends on "an" I don't care, I just doubt people would be calling me chan So I guess it would be san. Though everyone can yobisute me. As I dislike formality.

I think it varies for me. I would probably like -sempai or -chi but if I went to Japan, I would sooner see people using -chan or -san for me.
