@ProfPantsu I've always gone by "the kind of person who mocks people in public is the kind of person whose opinion you should discard anyway" instead- feels more true to life imo
@menmakii Aired at the start of 2021, so right at the peak of the huge wave of newbies and tourists coming from the pandemic. For most I'd imagine it was their first exposure to something that was unapologetically ecchi right from the get-go, bit of a culture shock ๐
@Dexerto Doesn't Gaben's yacht actually function as a marine research and deep-sea exploration vessel too? it's not purely a luxury vehicle right? That alone puts it leagues-above (pardon the pun) any other stupid billionaire yacht lmfao
@LavenderGhast It makes me livid when I'm watching a show and hear a character say in a completely regular tone-of-voice, something like: "ie, mou daijoubu" and the subtitles pop-up as something like "oh shucks! you okay, pal?".
I don't know if localizers ever talk to real people...
@AbsoluteCinEva@joecommando64 miserable twitter mfs saying I have dementia because I can't remember the full name, address, occupation, voice actor, and top 3 favourite foods of every side character from every show I've watched over the past decade
@BlakkBile Idk man, I'm just sick of shit like:
"Hey A-kun! Do you want to go to the movies? They're airing that new film!"
Getting subbed as:
"How's it hanging pal? Wanna catch a sweet flick? That totally hype new film is out!"
It's like every sub is oozing with "fellow kids" type shit
@NineOuh90 "Hmm... should we expand overseas and use the additional revenue stream to pay our animators a living wage?" ๐ค
๐ก "I know! we'll continue to pay them peanuts, but blame their abysmal conditions on overseas piracy!"
JP bros need to unionize I stg ๐ญ you can do it! I believe!
@NaturalBornBuy Speaking as an English native, I think we focus more on the glottal stop in "can't" as opposed to the sound of the "t" itself.
"I can help" is smooth and flows from beginning to end.
"I can't help" has a sharp interrupt, even if the "t" gets dropped.
@elliviant Honestly I just want a real classic, sword-and-sorcery, traditional fantasy mmo that doesn't use tab-targeting and hotbars full of cooldowns. Makes combat feel sooooo boring.
@Lemon1012242 @tropotropotropo In a romance: the more caricaturized a character is, the more likely they are to be the fetish lol. This man is a few steps short of political cartoon ๐ญ
@RangerManSam@SaGa_NeilB Tf are you on?
Author wrote [A], because he wanted [A] in his story.
Translator should translate [A] into English.
It's not up to ANYBODY to go "hmm I think the author here was probs going for le epic one liner so I'm going to rewrite the scene in a way I think is wayy cooler" ๐
@RangerManSam@SaGa_NeilB The authors intent wasn't just "say something cool" it was "say the name of the attack". You can tell this by the way the author made the character say the name of the attack ๐ glad to be of help
