Localisation Checking the Localization of 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim

[Ene]

SPOILERS (This game is worth playing) SPOILERS
Its fully voice acted with both JP and ENG​

Toned Down

Note: 寝込みを襲う [Assault/attack while sleeping]

English To Science

Opinion: Changing it to science makes her sound more stupid, but it's acceptable localization I guess.

Peeping Tom

Note: On a different scene のぞき魔 is translated correctly

Indecent situation

Damsel in distress

JP: Talks like a Punk不良
ENG: Strong whamen

Particular set of skills "meme"

Yarikata ga kitanai

Context: Black mail if I remember correctly
Note: She speaks in a rough tone やり方がきたないね ー＞やり方がきたねえな

An adult I can trust

BL?

Context: Iori accidentally ease-drops on a conversation that "sounds" gay
Note: On the 3rd line Juro calls what "what they are doing" おかしい/Okashii (Weird/abnormal/wrong..etc). Localization just made him hesitant.

Vitamin C

JP: complimenting her face/skin
ENG: Vitamin C is healthy

Direct

Despite being a Guy

JP: Criticism - ENG: Question

Karada o kutskeru

JP: Touching - ENG: Close

Fiddling

Note: He's talking about fiddling with his brain, but doesn't specify so it sounds lewd.
1st image: He's blushing while saying this, and Hijiyama blushes in the next dialogue

Uruwashii

Note: Uruwashii is untranslated
麗しい/uruwashii seems like an old fashioned way of saying 美しい/utsukushii so he's being kinda of a weirdo in the JP

Kawaii Ojousan

Note: The implication isn't changed, but his awkward compliment is untranslated

Confuse (Spoiler)

JP: 惑わせる/To lead astray (from the straight path?)
ENG: Get a rise
Note: The second line is also more specific

Prince Charming, Sleeping Beauty

Note: The meaning isn't changed, but for some reason "gender specific fairly-tail" comparisons were changed to generic, gender neutral ones instead.
1st: [Seriously waiting for her "白馬の王子様prince on a white horse"] to [A hopeless romantic]
2nd: Good morning "眠り姫Sleeping princess" to [Good morning sleepyhead]

Hentai ne

Not yours

Note: A bit unsure about this one. Is she saying yours as in "girlfriend" or "property"

Those Breasts

?

JP: Confused
Eng: Uncharacteristic sass

Flavor txt

Note:
悪い子ね Is untranslated

Kono Ama !

Note: "このアマ" does not literally mean "you bitch" but it is often translated that way.

Haijin

Note: The meaning isn't changed, but they went with a none offensive translation
JP: 廃人 [Cripple/disabled person, invalid] (Derogatory word)

Shumi nano

Context: He picked out her outfit

Lied about [Almost liking you/Not liking you] (Spoiler)

Note: Need to tl and add previous scene

Spoiler: Binaries Screenshots (not mine)

[Halo]

doesn't look bad from those example, some stuff seems like it'd be better worded sticking closer to the JP versions, but overall it's nothing god awful

I mean they have clearly toned down the sexual implications and removed slurs and for no good reason. While a few of the transaction does make more sense. (like the "living with a girl" and "an old fart I can trust")

 

[namedoesntfi]

Most seem just toned down. There are a couple that felt like deviating from the original intent. And of course that anything that seems to touch (even though it doesn't) into trans territory changes significantly from the original script.

Still, @Ene , do you still think it's worth playing even in EN?

Yeah, its an interesting game, and you can play it with the JP VA.
Other than the stuff with Okino, everything else is standard western localization changes.

It's bad and that's a fact, "toned down" is still censorship.

 

[PhantomXero1x]

I was planning on buying the game sometime in the future and well, this kind of stuff just turns me off from getting it.

 

[Ahegaliant]

Still haven't played this because of the decisions made in loc. I heard the spanish script is fine though? I might just watch a no-commentary spanish playthrough lol

Necroposting here, but same.
Do we know if the other versions are based on the English script or the Japanese one? I'd like to play it in Italian to avoid this bull.
