    What does this mean? I vaguely get that it refers to being extremely unsatisfied, but there is there an additional meaning to it.
    不满归不满,我依然是纯正的萝莉音.

    edit: added the whole sentence

    Be unsatisfied if they return without fulfiling whatever they're doing?
    To come home ( unsatisfied) with empty hands.

    What other meaning are you looking for?
    I would say something like "As dissatisfying as it was, I still had this innocent Lolita voice" or something. Might change with more context.

    I took translating as a hobby recently and yes its about lolita . . . what did you expect?


    The character was vexed about turning into a loli, i think that kinda fits the bill. Thanks

    Dissatisfaction being dissatisfaction, I still am a pure loli-voice.

    The first clause of the sentence usually implies a nonetheless in connection to the second clause.

    Hope this helps!
