> Now that you say it, I don't recall 'Qs' being used to refer a person. Mostly, it refers to the group. It's like, a collective noun, like 'class' (from classroom). I don't really know if it's singular, plural, or collective.

The way I read it, 'Qs' is the squad shorthand, like S3 (probably the squad fighting SSS-rated ghouls), S2 (SS-rated ghouls), S1 (S-rated ghouls). So yeah, 'Qs' is always collectively used for the whole squad.

> Well, I don't speak Japanese so...

Japanese knowledge doesn't really help to tell apart plural and singular. In Japanese, no suffix is often added to denote a plural. (I think a suffix is mostly added when referring to a group of people.)
