mario2000 posted... This is just going to make me avoid Crunchyroll/Netflix/etc. and stick to fansubs even more because if ever I watch an official translation I'm always going to be thinking "is this what the characters are really saying?"You have watched many many anime shows where the translator completely changed the line and you didnt even know ...

Unless AI advances to the point that it's actually capable of doing research and thinking critically (which would require a fundamental change in how it's programmed), it's simply not possible. Even if you train it to perfectly translate any work that currently exists, it's not going to know what to do when something new comes along. Other things to consider: recent memes or figures of speech, intentionally archaic usage of words that have a different modern meanings, or the personality of the character and their relationship with who they're speaking to. Like do you think "kuso" should always be translated as "shit"? Because there are many circumstances where "damn" or even "darn" are far more appropriate, even within the same show. --- https://i.imgur.com/lfI7zGE.jpg https://i.imgur.com/tgLNUuX.jpg Come to the (un)official GameFAQs Touhou board. http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/1110- ...

CyricZ posted... I've got a dozen in the front of my head right now:Zom100 and SpyxFamily are the only ones Ive seen definitely seen subbed. I dont know Japanese, but show never had me confused and everything subtitled seemed pretty easy to understand. I thought subtitling Camping Car of the Dead as RV of the Dead was silly since they said the title in English, but thats just a personal annoyance. Monster is one i would have liked to see subbed. I saw the version that was dubbed on SyFy. ... Copied to Clipboard!

How many good localizations are there in anime?Uh, lots, since everything is localized. Direct translations do not work. --- River Song: Well, I was off to this gay gypsy bar mitzvah for the disabled when I thought 'Gosh, the Third Reich's a bit rubbish, I think i'll kill the Fuhrer' ...
