    Megathread Poor Localization Compilation Thread

    The most charitable thing u can say about it is that it changes the tone, which destroys some characters personality. Yae miko in jp and Spanish versions of some lines comes across as flirty and she uses anime-like old words to refer to herself and the MC. its like saying dear or when women in...

    ANN recently interviewed Naoko Yamada, legendary director of moe anime (K-on, Hibike! Euphonium, Tamako Market and Liz and the blue bird) They embarrassed themselves yet again. Here are the highlights: Asking if K-on being a show aimed at men was a myth, getting a reply that it was indeed aimed...

    it's funny that the QT's and replies are also telling u to kys. like they would find it ironic at least. Reminder that ANN ex editor in chief zac bretschy also died and he is also a piece of shit that bragged in his shitty podcast how he helped in censoring the localized version of kodomo no...

    Localisation The Absolute State of Rune Factory 5's Localization

    really starting to feel this way, after new xeno game trailer that, compared to Xeno 2, had basically no otaku appeal. looked like the "ethics department" had a word with the devs. Not really in the mood of buying JRPGs again, unless someone like atlus is making them. even the trannylators of...

    good idea. maybe re editing the intro OP with more stuff we have colected. it was a cool idea of meemo to do this stuff. There's some spicy stuff out there just needs time to be organized.

    The one Tuber

    HoloEn vtubers, specially the first generation, look like honest people. Amelia, gura, etc dont look like clique driven attention whores, and more like ppl that really like the stuff theyre doing. You can make a case about kiara, but to me she looks closer to a desperate girl than someone like...

    Thats what I've been thinking about. Deepl is accurate enough imho. Not only that, japanese streaming services like ABEMA have WAY more content for otaku than just anime. They hold interviews with ppl that work in the industry, and also have specials like the eva one in which you could see anno...

    Megalo-box mangaka was interviewed by ANN. Frog-kun (Kim Morrisy) did the translation of the interview User tacticalfiend found the transcript of that interview by a japanese site and frog-kun magically inserted the term Toxic masculinity which the author didn't use. Japan has a word for toxic...

    Discussion Web Novels/Light Novels: Like turn of the century pulp fiction but less cool.

    Lately, I've been reading very interesting webnovels in the +18 section of narou. Top 5 ranking novels there have more twisted shit than redo of healer, considering redo of healer at least has the "its a medieval fantasy, so other culture" excuse. many series there are about slaves and such in...
