| Comments: | "think out" is in all the JEs. It sounds fine to me, although it's more commonly used to mean "think about carefully". I don't think "develop" is needed. Added senses. |

| Comments: | Surely that should be "think up" or "think of", and not "think out"? (Google tells me that "to think out a plan" is quite common for something... perhaps a dialect difference...) I added "to develop", common on reverso and eijiro. I don't think that any of the "think" variants are a great loss, but I wouldn't make any of them the #2 suggestion. Certainly not "think out". |

| Comments: | Flashy hero character "came up with" a collection of handsome poses (for his future statues). I just liked the translation, none of the existing glosses here would have worked nearly as well for this pairing, and eijiro supports it. |
