"let's translate everything absolutely literally with no regards to making it interesting/flow well in english"

while there are bad official translations around (though not as often nowadays)... as far i've seen, those calling for retranslations usually know little japanese

as in JLPT level 3 or higher (ie beginner level; level 2 is considered intermediate, and 1 advanced)

and yeah they tend to be enamored with literal meanings and even grammar i know because i've been through that phase already

i should read that thread, it seems gold

>crazy is offensive!

>bitch please, i'm clinically insane and translated this shit, don't tell me what's offensive

yeah basically

and official ones tend to have a higher chance of being good because you know

they're actually experienced and are getting paid to do a good job

it's okay

while of course agendas sometimes play a role in warping translations, their effects tend to be far more bland than what people claim

and yeah, they're professionals now... at least when we're talking about jap->eng

now that's crazy talk
