Fansubs are up

[Max Payne]

Does that mean my efforts are no longer required

No. The subs are awful

Barely serviceable imo.

 

[X-SOLDIER]

I'm greatly looking forward to yours actually.
This's just something to do in the mean time.

Yeah I'm sure your subs will be much better... can I make a request though? Please don't include any weeaboo, I hate that.

 

[Ⓐaron]

Spoiler: Weeaboo?

I had to.

 

[SilentTweak]

I don't get what that means

 

[BOEG]

Maybe by "weaboo" the person means refer to Cloud as "Cloud" in the subs and not "Kuraudo-Chan," or something. That's my best guess. It's big topic of interest on numerous Dragonball forums where people flip shit when Future Trunks is called "Mirai Turankusu"

I don't like it, but it doesn't bug me.

 

[SilentTweak]

Oh god no. I wouldn't do something stupid like that. My subs are localized. No Japanese Honorifics of any kind. That's just ridiculous when the world is based in a fantasy world and not Japan.

Anyone who puts Kuraudo in the subs is retarded too, because they even have official Latin character spellings.

 

[renren]

Isn't a real subbing group gonna do it?

 

[SilentTweak]

I am a real subbing group.

On another note, I've begun timing Denzel's Case OVA. There'll be a 720p and 1080p release for this as well. Most likely there'll be a 1080 PS3 release that will follow after the MKV releases.

 

[Dashell]

I don't mind honorifics really. When I say weeaboo, I mean stuff like this:

Okay really, I'm supposed to read all that in less than 5 seconds? And who cares? Then write, "Are you okay Strawhat?"

Nakama has an English translation. It means friend, comrade, acquaintance, ally, associate, buddy, classmate, cohort, colleague, companion, compatriot, consort, crony, familiar, intimate, mate, pal, partner, crewmate, sidekick, soul mate, spare, well-wisher

PICK ONE!

And my personal new favorite that the OP community has wrapped their retarded paws around:

The word haki means ambition or will power... so basically what they just said was, "If a person's ambition is strong, their ambition is strong."

Really? You think?

lol In the fansub community we've seen a lot worst. Like TL notes that take up the entire screen. Or a script with a million 3 liners. Oh man and those infamous uses of the word "nakama" lol

 

[Cthulhu]

The point of a subtitle is not to divulge into the deeper recesses of the over nine thousaaand meanings of some Jap word - there's over nine thousaaand possible meanings for a lot of English words as well depending on context, tone of voice, and whatnot, and those are never bothered to be explained.

In fact, the only stuff I can think of that wouldn't be susceptible for a double meaning would be either 'n00dz or gtfo' or 'CTHULHU FHTAGN'.

 

[Ⓐaron]

CTHULHU FHTAGN does have a double meaning, it means either "Cthulhu waits" or "Cthulhu dreams" or "Cthulhu waits dreaming"

 

[I Am Not Me]

Okay... That.

I LOL'd. Non-stop.


I really don't get all this fangirling/fanboying over the Japanese language. I mean, I love anime and manga and all, but sometimes too much of that is too much Seriously.




And, uh, I don't know if this issue's been addressed before or anything, but I can't seem to load my subtitles. I'm no n00b at this, so this puzzles me.

And why are "weeaboos" called "weeaboos"? I seriously don't get how that word came up.



EDIT: Never mind about the subs. I got it.

 

[Cthulhu]

CTHULHU FHTAGN does have a double meaning, it means either "Cthulhu waits" or "Cthulhu dreams" or "Cthulhu waits dreaming"

Actually, that's a flaw in the English language, since FHTAGN doesn't translate as directly to your obviously inferior language. And also because you mortals cannot comprehend the language of the Great Old Ones, for it is far beyond comprehension.

 

[Ⓐaron]

Of course, .

also, weeaboo comes from a Perry Bible Fellowship comic which I poasted somewhere; might even have been in this thread.

 

[Alessa Gillespie]

 

[Ryushikaze]

CTHULHU FHTAGN does have a double meaning, it means either "Cthulhu waits" or "Cthulhu dreams" or "Cthulhu waits dreaming"

Actually it means 'Cthulhu has a terrible hangover and feels both fat and bloated and really regrets doing that 'gone wild' thing with Ryu and company last night.'

Actually, that's a flaw in the English language, since FHTAGN doesn't translate as directly to your obviously inferior language. And also because you mortals cannot comprehend the language of the Great Old Ones, for it is far beyond comprehension.

Actually, cultists just all have lisps. They're really just trying to tell you about Oxi Clean.

I am quite amused by those. It's why Advent fanboys was full of 'em.

You did. And for that, we must paddle you.

 

[Ⓐaron]

D'oh.

 

[Cthulhu]

So, anyone have any better subs than those on Subscene? I've seen two, and both are poorly spelled Engrish, and I cba to fix them up myself, .

 

[Cthulhu]

'kay, I'll just fix it up myself then, .

lulz, whoever wrote this is a weeaboo. Failing to translate 'senpai' at the start (which according to Wikipedia can be translated to 'master' or something), and a continuous stream of 'WHAT HAPPEN?'.

I should put in 'ALL YOUR BASE' etc in there for the lulz. Anyone want me to post it when I'm done? I can't guarantee it'll be accurate (since I know about 3 word of Japanese, of which two involve tentacle raep), but the spelling mistakes will be fixxed for the most part.

 

[Pixel]

I think senpai would translate better to "sir" wouldnt it. Master seems a bit I dream of genie. And it refers to her superiors, tseng, reno and rude.

 

[Max Payne]

How about Senior?

 

[Cthulhu]

I just translated it as Great Old One, .

 

[Masamune]

Does Ajito mean "their base" or is it a name for the Forgotten City? Because those subs play it both ways.
