Dogshit Localizations

[WhiteShark]

I have finished the event. The boy character crossdressing as a girl actually wants to ***** out and physically become a girl, and dreams of being "accepted".

The Japanese GBF wiki doesn't have the lines for that event recorded yet, but, judging from the discussion around it on the Japweb, this part seems likely to be accurate. Strong troonism implications. The crossdressing was bad enough, but this is worse. Unfortunate.

And this is why you don't need 6 gorillion terms for different flavors of ***** media.

Apologize

"a-a-actually, it's an otokonoko and they don't want to be girls it's totally different they just look like girls!"
*plot advances 3 seconds and the character voices desire to be a girl*

slightly off-topic , but why does modern society tolerate crossdressing for women but not for men? We could argue that the entire feminist movement has always been about blurring the lines between what makes men and women unique, by allowing women to live like men. This includes encouraging them to join the workforce and wear gaudy, typically masculine clothing, infiltrating male spaces, and so on. when men try to do the same however, they are often called creeps, incels, or predators. You see this even with self-proclaimed right-wing 'dissenters' who defend the ludicrous idea of women's sports while deliberately avoid discussing the core tenant issues related to feminism. I'm not suggesting that any of this is necessarily a net positive for humanity; I'm simply pointing out how even those grifters who claim to be on the side of modern, broken men's issues often reveal their true colors once exposed.

Looks like westoids were in ****** all the time but blame japan, how ironic:

My spidey sense tells me this is not what the original dialog is

This is how I'd localize stuff

It's because what people believe "women" should be like is actually useless and a form of infantilization, and as such, someone wishing to leave it seen as uplifting and largely nonthreatening. So, you know, what Rusto said.

Modern society? Who knows. Slightly less-modern societies? Because...

A woman wearing pants still has a womb, and so can still do her primary woman-duty.
A man wearing a dress is probably some sort of effete ****** or deranged rapist, and can therefore not do his primary man-duties of protecting and providing.

[Finarfin]

Do not do this

Which episodes are these in? I wanna see if the german subs are just as ********.

Like the first three

Well, the german subtitle for the "cringe" one is:

"Oh ja, ganz viele. Sogar solche, die am Pubertätssyndrom leiden. Oh yeah, lots of them. Even ones suffering from puberty syndrome" basically Pubertätssyndrom is used here for Chuunibyou

The PlayStation 2 version of Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3 can't even be finished thanks to its botched localization.

The US version cannot be completed, due to a localisation error. As the Japanese Yen is worth a fraction of the value of the US Dollar, prices in the game are dropped by 100x. Unfortunately, they forgot to do this for the Whirlwind Fanfare opponent, meaning that taking her on costs more money than its possible to hold within the game. Therefore you can't take on the final boss, as every other opponent must be beaten.

An unofficial patch that corrects this bug was released on January 2024, it can be obtained at https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/8339/

It was a bloodbath, back in those days.

They were lucky to have the superior 4kids localizations back in the day.

I really, really hate Ted Woolsey and his "quirky" dialogue. I actually see people try to defend him by saying he "adds more character" to the script, as if that excuses the awful changes he makes. Compared to a lot of the stuff we see now, this doesn't look so bad, but keep in mind it's because of people like Woolsey that modern-day localizers think they can get away with it.

Found a screenshot from the Japanese remake to make sure they didn't gay it up there as well

The feminist movement is about making women more masculine so they reproduce less while also getting them out of the house and putting them to work full time for more tax revenue (for the bankers).

Shaming men as creeps, incels or predators in general is opposite to praising women as strong and independent. In other words, you can't strengthen women without weakening men.

It's all about depopulation (and to a lesser degree extracting wealth from the lower classes).

[rusty_shackleford]

Japanese has a word for 'incel'?

[DrSneed]

I don't speak gookrunes
what does it actually mean
cherry boy/virgin or something?

[Oyster Sauce]

Japanese has a word for 'incel'?

That's just a rude way of addressing multiple people as in "they" or "them". You might use it instead of a polite version if you were to say something like "奴ら They robbed my store" or "that's 奴ら them, the thieves I was telling you about". Japanese does have various insults for male virgins, but you wouldn't really translate any of them into incel, you'd probably just say... virgin.

Owari da

It's very funny when people who don't speak Japanese move to Japan. Maybe she'll meet up with Chibi.

Chibi Reviews? I thought he lived in the US.
