Performative chronically online liberals scrambling to find a way to defend the worst shit you've ever seen because they saw some chud on reddit also hate it

I think snow Na'Vi should just be the Ronso from FFX. That's the thought.

Some of us DB fans can have nuance. I can say 'I think the Kikuchi score is mostly bland and uninteresting' while also saying 'I don't think the Faulcner score fits a 1980's Martial Arts anime'.

Cool thing about Andor is I can show it to someone who's only ever seen the movies. Everything else in modern SW is Filoniverse content of varying qualities and requires 18 seasons of 3 cartoons to know about.

This is a well oiled machine with many moving parts, so all the hate and disdain attributed to the actual people doing the localization is largely misguided.

Localization is a creative craft that has to deal with many bureaucracies and standards that we cannot control. When you're pissed about a certain cultural change, bring that up to the people above the localizers because we have no control over that.

4. Ignoring or changing previously designated terms or iconic phrases Ex. NieR:Automata - THIS CANNOT CONTINUE --> NieR:Automata LSS - th1s 1s n0 g00d

3. Removing original songs or entirely rerecording them in EN or creating an entirely new and unrelated theme song (again this is a copyright issue, so it's tricky) Ex1. Dragon Ball OP - FIELD OF VIEW DAN DAN 心魅かれてく Ex2. Tales of Destiny OP - DEEN 夢であるように

2. Altering the title for whatever reason (I get this can't always be avoided) Ex1. Yoroiden Samurai Troopers -> Ronin Warriors Ex2. (EN->JP localization) Army of Darkness -> Captain Supermarket

The types of localizations that I don't like: 1. Needlessly changing character names or erasing culturally specific names/nouns Ex1. Usagi -> Serena Ex2. Onigiri/riceball -> hamburger

Ah yes, my favorite type of fanart. Goonerbait slop that changes every recognizable feature of a fictional species/character into the most generic Goonbimbo ever seen.

Ally To Good Nightmare To You is my favorite Goku transformation.

" She's rude ", " She's mean " , " She doesn't have much character depth " , " I don't like her much. " These type of comments... always... come from western audience and you can see why 🤐

This explains why many English speaking artists tend to draw 2B as strong and outgoing, while artists who understand Japanese portray her as much softer. 2B is actually a very gentle and introverted character. Even in the Chinese version with Japanese voice acting, the

Crazy being a millennial sometimes, having heard the 'the brain is a muscle' and 'don't believe everything on the internet' and even the pointed 'you can't die multiple times in real life' about video games, only to see every single one of those people fall straight into the pit

Again, seeing the Stranger Things fandom just independently do the Indoctrination Theory all over again is like, wild to me having lived through 2012 already once.

Since the Letterbox'd stats are getting shared. Mine is exclusively for a friend-group when 3+ are watching anything together.

@suchnerve Its not a paradox if you phrase it as a social contract

“The Radical Left can’t handle my opinions!!” “Okay, give an example.” “You’re not ready for it!” “Is it the Paradox of Tolerance again?” “…” “…it’s the Paradox of Tolerance again.”
