Censorship Persona 3 [FES x Reload] Localization At The Source

[Ene]

Updating
Playing P3FES and checking Reload on youtube when I find anything censorship worthy

​

"That's kinda gay" censored at the source

Male Pride

Rewrite

The skirt line

was not removed, they added a dialogue choice and put it behind the (+0) wrong answer. Kinda sneaky.

The original Rank 3 event seems to have been removed

Consider the differences in build between men and women

Boys protect the girls

Skirts to pants for the little girls

Localization
Reload was retranslated, the localizers fixed some mistranslations, but used the old script for mistranslations/localizations they agreed with.​

*Sigh* Men

Here, gender was added in the old localization and the retranslation fixed it

Woman's intuition

Here, gender was removed, the retranslation did not fix it and used the old script (most likely to have an excuse for leaving it as is)

Pretty white skin

White skin being viewed as beautiful is universal, it's not a Japanese/Asian only thing, they changed it because it's potentially offensive.

Before there is more examples. I would like to kind of mention that i think P3 Reloaded is using P3P as a base and not P3 FES. The reason being is that i think P3P had a retranslation from the base of P3 FES and it has different dialog than usual much like Persona 5 Royals was. It might be a good idea to also check this as well to be sure.

With the amount of work you do uncovering all this bullshit, you honestly deserve to set up a Patreon/alternative account of some kind.

I don't know if it's worth it, but maybe we should make a Patreon for our manga translation group and have the localization stuff be something extra that people can support there if they want. @LoliHat

ATLUS fans would defend this shit just to keep this series being milked as much as possibly it can be.

It's so infuriating to see localizers ruin one of my favorite games at the source. I'm more mad at the cucks at Sega/Atlus who let them get their grubby hands on it though, it would be trivial for them to protect the Japanese version but they just don't.

Would recommend it, also if you can try to look at P3P because i do have a feeling that the rot might have been much earlier than REloaded.

Rumors have it that Atlus veterans do not like what happened and they are sitting uneasy because SEGA Executives are forcing them to go through with it and make everything into Persona 5. Sadly there is not much they can do even if they do not want to because SEGA is the parent company. I am hoping if there is not much they can do, they just quit SEGA and make their own company again. But there is still a chance if SEGA's stocks can tank badly that a reorganization effort is made and Atlus veterans can gain control of SEGA and then make what they like.

I looked through the persona 3 reload end credits excepting to find sweet baby or their friends and nothing of interest came up
All the names were japanese hold the EN VAs so i assume any of the foreign branches staff were omitted

...But dont let that fool you that the company is free of taint

I assume any interloper was filed under something like Atlus QA team

It's the same parent company as Like a Dragon so I presume the method is the same. They don't use an external group like Sweet Baby, they send the script to their own localizers to be censored.

It's all Anglos, always. I mean this kind of confirms it's a clique and it's all interconnected in the West we have known this but this ends up giving more evidence. Japanese branches need to begin moving to AI Translations and soon unless they wish to see their sells decline massively due to how much people hate Sweet Baby for obvious reasons.

which p3 do u recommand between fes and portable 'cause i dont want to play with shit localization

Most peo

which p3 do u recommand between fes and portable 'cause i dont want to play with shit localization

Most people prefer FES because it has an extra dungeon but there are some appealing aspects of P3P like a female MC and QoL improvements
If you are emulating it you can acquire the "undubbed" version (the En version but with the JP Vas) and some fixes for the game like being able to use the compendium in the answer

FES, but all versions have a shit localization so play in Japanese. Those last two examples in the OP were both in the original localization as well.

For North Americans, that is incomprehensible lmao
