solrocknroll Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Two hardened killers pass each other in a room. They stare, and stare, not mentioning a word. They don't need to - they see it in their eyes. Those dimness, the eyes that have seen blood, the eyes that flashed in the darkness before they made their strike. The eyes that were the last thing that enemies saw before they crossed. Those eyes only said one line... "I've seen some shit." Support level increase. idk if you're joking but this is the actual train of thought I see here especially because at the end of the support they both smile, meaning that they really understand each other and even then, this is not some huge controversial thing imo. i mean, olivia and henry or donnel didn't get as much issue as this is seemingly getting right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunwoo Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Saizou and Belka's C-support had a sizable bit of text, and that text actually spoke a lot more about their characters than a dumb "…" support did. What the fuck were you thinking, localization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ebony Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 The more I watch it the more it feels like a placeholder all things considered. idk if you're joking but this is the actual train of thought I see hereespecially because at the end of the support they both smile, meaning that they really understand each otherand even then, this is not some huge controversial thing imo. i mean, olivia and henry or donnel didn't get as much issue as this is seemingly getting right now Half joking.

Djing Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 It also makes two otherwise dignified characters look like idiots. Like neither of them were the most social of people but they'll at least speak when approached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Sage Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 The mental gymnastics people people are using to justify this is much funnier than Treehouses's poor attempt at "humor". I'm pretty annoyed by this, especially since the two are my favorite characters. What kind of retard would decide "fuck characterization, let's just go for a cheap laugh." And if it's just a placeholder they forgot to remove, then this is more irritating because it shows that Treehouse is fucking terrible at tbeir jobs.

Time the Crestfallen Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Treehouse is so inconsistent with this localisation. Cut out skinship? Boo. Keep the Live2D assets and dialogue in without the touching? Yay. No dual audio? Boo. Most of the voices are actually pretty good? Yay. Soleil's supports with M!Kamui and her S-Ranks in general downplay her bait-and-switch lesbianism? Yay. Whatever this is? Boo. It's like a goddamn roller-coaster...

Let me fix that for you. Two assassins pass each other in a room. They stare, and stare, not mentioning a word. They don't have to, they can see the passion in each others eyes. He made her heart go badump badump. She made his heart go doki doki. They didn't know if they would survive the war but after meeting each other they realized the truth. Life without each other would be impossible. Belka: ... (Your raging fire has melted my icy heart. It's making me wet.) Saizo: ... (Your striking figure has made be a hardened killer.) Belka: ... (Take me now! Ambush my most vulnerable spot!) Saizo: ... (With pleasure! My kunai will strike true!) Support Level Increase At least that's how I interpreted those ellipses.

LeDom Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Okay that's just dumb. Not gonna jump on the ''death to Treehouse'' bandwagon as I'm fine with nearly everything else I've seen from the localization, but that's gotta be their worst adaptational change. Though it's not like it ruins the whole support either since, as many pointed out, the rest of their support route are pretty much the same.

EJ107 Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 It does look like a placeholder, If it was an intended joke it would probably have been longer. The joke doesn't really work when it's so short. Or it could have just been a poor localization choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May_Patra Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Oh man, Saizo/Beruka were my favourite pairing for each other. :/This is such a dumb change. Well, at least B-S is still pretty much the same so I'll still pair them up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostyFireMage Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 I love how people are acting like their original C support was a life-changing experience that could right all the wrongs of the world They just recognize each other as assassins from the other country and say they've killed people. That's it There's being angry at quality content being cut and there's overreacting to something extremely minor being changed I think the localized support really shows how taciturn and focused the two are while being amusing at the same time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belka treats it with professional indifference but Saizo seems to have taken his actions to heart. You don't have to think that's amazing but it is characterization.

Thane Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Still better than (at least the Japanese) Saizou and Hinoka. Wait, don't tell me Saizou is getting shafted in the localization, too; he can't survive another support as bad as that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't have to think that's amazing but it is characterization. it's pretty obvious in their other supports that Saizo is emotional and Beruka is almost robotic, their attitudes toward their professions don't require a few extra lines to figure out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One minor change here, another there, another there, and so on and so on, and the result of all these minor changes is far worse than what any of them on their own did. If this was the ONLY bad change in the localization,or even the only completely altered support, people might not be so angry. But when there's a long, long list of removed or altered content, it adds up. Besides, I cannot see how removing an entire conversation and replacing it with silent stares is better. It is quality content being cut, it was a solid support. The replacement was either a placeholder or someone's dumb attempt at a joke or meme.
