Bad Localizations/Translations Anonymous 01/20/2023 (Fri) 23:30:26 No. 2195
Thread for talking about, laughing at, or cringing at absolutely dogshit translation jobs by diversity hires and (((other people))). Pic related is from the recent anime Inukai where the protagonist turned into a dog and everything is from his perspective. This is the "official" Funimation translation btw.
>this tranny is still being allowed to ruin shit I miss the era of fansubbing groups being alive
>This fatass bitch After her disaster of a translation with Higurashi where she translated Nii-Nii to "Big Bruddah", how the fuck does she still have a job?
>complains about the job >backpedals on said complaint (probably because of pressure from employer) >"it's not for you ;^)" I can deal with tranny grade localizations in fansub/fan translation projects because I know they're subverting for free, but it really pisses me off when I see these same kind of fuckwits actually getting paid to ruin games and anime. Also, fuck these asshats when they say "it's not for you." Senran Kagura wasn't for them, but that didn't stop them from infiltrating and destroying it. Same with Warhammer, D&D, and pretty much ever other fucking geek hobby ever. Take an important lesson from this people: this is what happens when you don't gatekeep.
>>2199 >I didn't mind tranny fansubbers nah fuck them, they always wanted to infiltrate and ruin everything, they're only slightly less awful
Could someone provide archives to the tweets in the OP before she purges them from her account?
>>2206 >she
>>2207 Come now, anon. Surely the problem with shit translations of anime isn't just trannies doing what they naturally do,

I can't see this shit lasting as long as it has in the gaming industry. The entire western manga/anime consumer base is reliant on translations to even get what they want and when the community at large learn that most of the people behind this are just as bad as their vidya counterparts, altering content to suit their own tastes and politics, you can expect sales to drop dramatically. They will likely learn this through a controversy reminiscent of Fire Emblem Fates where things changed so dramatically the dialogue and characters were downright unrecognizable, like Ghost Stories, but now the ones responsible can't get away with it due to widespread internet use and increasing critique on localizations. Just within the past few years, Funi been lambasted over their awful releases of Dragon Ball, how they treated Vic, their awful streaming service that couldn't let you unsubscribe, their dubs being awful (even adding a Gamergate reference out of spite), and even changing the subs to have memeshit like "sus", they are now finally being outed as the worst US distributor of anime. Considering they've been hemorrhaging money until the merge with Sony and haven't learned from their mistakes now with this bitch bragging about how much she changed shit, I think it's only a matter of time until they finally hit the chopping block.

>>2195 /a/ Admin, if you wanted a way to support this board when advertising it to other people, you found it. Just go on places that aren't 8chan and show some screencaps from the thread, telling people to come over if they want to see more.
>>2280 Hm? What do you mean? Screencaps of people in this thread, or just the caps being posted right now?
>>2300 Just a couple of the images being posted here + a link to this place Bonus point if it uses a link shortener or the redchannit alt so people have no clue it's 8chan
