Ethical Pedophile (blinkrape@posting.lolicon.rocks)'s status on Sunday, 08-Jan-2023 04:49:44 JST Ethical Pedophile @s8n idk I'm kind of relying on the claim that there are actual documented differences between male & female brains; but knowing the medical profession they've probably been lying about that too. -

Ethical Pedophile (blinkrape@posting.lolicon.rocks)'s status on Friday, 06-Jan-2023 19:35:36 JST Ethical Pedophile In elementary school we were reading some short stories, I don't remember why. May have been a standardized test or something, but it was for reading comprehension.
This story was pretty fucking crazy, but its exactly the kind of thing that would pass for real news in 2023.
It was about some friends who went vacationing in the mountains, where they encountered fresh, clean, unpolluted air as opposed to the city where they were from. It made them so uncomfortable and disoriented they stopped a guy and paid him money to let them huff exhaust fumes from his tailpipe. -

The core joke is one character doesn't understand a word another used, and it sounds like something else. I don't need a translators note to tell me this is happening even if I don't understand what "open mouthed" / dumbfounded fucking means.
Especially when the clarification comes up in the next line of dialogue

idk. I suspect I'd understand the gag without the note if I heard the audio anyway

Ethical Pedophile (blinkrape@posting.lolicon.rocks)'s status on Wednesday, 04-Jan-2023 15:38:36 JST Ethical Pedophile @coolboymew @roboneko @LucoaMilkers I need more context. Is this a raw subtitled scene or is it supposed to be some example of a translator's note. -

I find the concept that you simply can't localize something sometimes to be hard to swallow, if the entire premise of disliking localization is that it sometimes completely throws out the source to replace it with something the target audience will understand, then you have necessarily just localized it.
Maybe you can't think of a joke directly related to the original, that's fair. But you could also pull from earlier translations of events / dialogue and create a new joke within the context of that scene and the relationship of those characters or what they may be referencing that conveys the same emotional response (or if you're really lucky the intended "message") -

The problem is, Anime is intended for rapid audio/visual consumption. To the average person they just don't want to deal with a bunch of shit on the screen, especially if it is only there for a period barely enough to read (on top of subtitles that may or may not be timed quickly) and it is just not the correct medium, or preferred outcome to overload the viewer with textual stimulation.
The real problem at the heart of the matter is you have no faith in the people being hired to translate and localize text. That is an entirely different problem that needs to be dealt with.
I don't care if some idiom gets changed or a joke rewritten so that I understand it, as long as its done by a competent person and the reaction from me is the intended reaction (I laugh, or whatever).
If I was reading a translated book full of reference citations and liner notes, that's a completely different commitment from wanting to switch 90% of my brain off and watch a TV show or film. -
Ethical Pedophile (blinkrape@posting.lolicon.rocks)'s status on Wednesday, 04-Jan-2023 15:13:56 JST Ethical Pedophile @rlier23 @roboneko @coolboymew @LucoaMilkers then they shouldn't need the translators notes.
You can try all you want, but you can't delete this paradox -

That's a lot of word to say you're a mad elitst who thinks people without the time or energy to learn a completely different language (and an extremely difficult one) and culture don't deserve to watch and enjoy Anime -
Ethical Pedophile (blinkrape@posting.lolicon.rocks)'s status on Wednesday, 04-Jan-2023 15:13:50 JST Ethical Pedophile @roboneko @LucoaMilkers @coolboymew it is logically inconsistent to insist these clarifications come through translator notes, which you say you desire, but somehow them being subtitled directly is a grave offense. -
Ethical Pedophile (blinkrape@posting.lolicon.rocks)'s status on Wednesday, 04-Jan-2023 15:11:36 JST Ethical Pedophile @roboneko @coolboymew @LucoaMilkers It's impossible to understand the original authors intention if you don't already understand the cultural references and language, in which case, you would require a localization anyway. -
