jivjov posted:I must be the only person in the universe that prefers TV Nihon's subs, at least for Gokaiger. I actually like the colored subs, and I prefer to see the honorifics in the subtitles. "Mr. Marvelous" doesn't flow as well for me as "Marvelous-san" Believe me, you're not. We get people crying about it in our inbox literally all the time, from less than 24 hours after we started the blog. So your opinions are wrong, and you're not alone. Ps. It's fine if Marvelous-san sounds better to you than Mr. Marvelous, because O-T actually translates that as just plain Marvelous.

Don't forget about "sense" for style, and "ice" for ice cream or popsicles, "cherry boy" for a virginal young man, and "roadshow" for a theatrical release of a movie. Not only that, but a lot of loanwords that sound like they come from English actually don't. For instance "sukopu" being from the Dutch schop and not the english scoop. (it actually means a shovel)

The real problem is that he would no doubt be watching the TV-N versions, and I honestly don't think that the fabric of our universe can handle the stress of two such awful things converging on video on the internet.

All of us have accounts, really. I'm the translator at Onore TVN. We're probably not going to wait for the WHOLE series to be done, but at least a good chunk so we don't get behind even when I'm overwhelmed by real work. Well. Paying work. Thanks for coming to the stream, those of you who did. We really only have the first two eps out of QC right now, I want to make sure we have a bunch of backlog before we make real releases. I'm in the middle of working on Ep 10.

 This one is my favorite of all the Nossan posts, because it just makes so little sense. They wrote a Japanese joke that WASN'T the joke Nossan was making, and then told us what it was. I'm still really confused.

For the record, I love Wizard, though I'm aware it's not really everyone's cup of tea. However, I must point out that the Phantoms' goal is to make more Phantoms, not kill Gates. So they're not actually trying to kill a specific person.

I think that Mage is a good step towards a possible female secondary, though. Mage is the first in-series female rider, because of ETA: Made a terrible mistake, sorry Ishinomori. TheGreenAvenger fucked around with this message at 01:52 on Jul 27, 2013 |

It's happening because WW WANTS it to happen and is creating specific circumstances that allow it to happen. He's been obviously shady and pretty obviously Wiseman from the beginning of the series, I don't see why people are suddenly surprised that he's the fucken puppetmaster. They never said that it's a 1 in a million thing, they just explained why Haruto was able to. I think it's very unlikely for someone to be able to overcome their phantom during an eclipse and that's why Haruto is so special. We haven't seen it happen during the series other than recently because whenever a Gate begins to despair, a wizard is there to go into their underworld and defeat it. If, for instance, dead wife guy had Haruto shout NO YOUR WIFE DOESNT WANT YOU TO DWELL ON THE PAST HERES A LETTER, instead of Nitoh going into his underworld and killing his Phantom, he might be a wizard now too. ETA: Also it's pretty obvious the reason Wiseman doesn't give a gently caress about Gremlin announcing he's going to betray him is because Wiseman/WW sees him as no threat and, looking at the ep where WW beat the poo poo out of Gremlin, he really isn't one. This might end up being Wiseman's OH NO MY HUBRIS WAS MY DOWNFALL MOMENT but we'll have to wait and see. TheGreenAvenger fucked around with this message at 08:11 on Aug 13, 2013 |

48 (sort of) finishes out Philip's arc, but it's not really done until 49, and if you drop off before 49 you don't get an ending for Shotaro's arc at all. (Or Wakana's, lets be real.)

They were going to do more with Eiji, I believe. Concentrating a little more on the fact that he has some pretty bad PTSD but fortunately or unfortunately the big earthquake happened during the series and that plot involved a lot of clips of buildings falling over and poo poo so they had to drop it.

I do, but I got tired of defending Wizard from people who don't watch it saying it sucks. V VI thought it was very appropriate thematically for the series, and it was definitely planned from the very start. All of the foreshadowing and thematic elements led up to this ending. It was definitely one of the more well-plotted Rider shows I have ever seen. They managed to close out all the lingering plot threads in a way that left me feeling really good about the whole series.

RBX posted:Its just weird as hell watching Kyoryuger and seeing them into their roles and showing the kids in the credits having fun then here in America nobody gives a poo poo, the actors are embarrassed, and they don't even try to act like they're doing this for the kids to have fun. Its just so transparent here. That's cos most actors who do sentai in Japan do it to further careers that already exist, and most of the time they go on to do other toku and also bigger careers. Also it's easier to see that you have an audience that loves you in Japan where sentai is a big thing where there are tours and concerts and stuff. Power Rangers, by comparison, is a thankless and lame job.

AzraelNewtype posted:Japan thinks she's a witch with a cat face. Ryulong, obsessive keeper of official terms at any cost (dude switched up the wiki to Deboth the second we saw it romanized in show, despite being the worst Japanese atrocity since WW2), uses female pronouns for her. It seems that may be the case. They don't really use gendered pronouns much in general, and as far as I can tell never have for Luckiero. Yeah well, Luckiero uses boku as a pronoun and isn't called out for it the way he would be if he were a bokkuko. He's voiced by a chick known for voicing boy characters, and just because fans in japan draw Luckiero porn where he's a girl doesn't mean the character is a girl. If drawing girl porn of a character meant a character was a girl, there would be no dude characters at all.

Twelve by Pies posted:I think they mention near the start of the series when he gets the first upgrade I believe, the Dragon shows up and says something to that effect, but nothing is ever really done with it at all. It sort of looks like they might be doing something like that in the Gaim/Wizard movie, there's a scene of Haruto on the ground with cracks all over him in the preview scenes during the opening of the most recent Gaim episode. Haruto had a lot of emotion and drive, he just didn't spend a lot of time explicitly pointing it out or going over it, unlike Gentaro or Shotaro who sort of embodied their main personality traits. (Gentaro's being friendliness and Shotaro's being mawkish tryhardness) Anyone in the show who knew him saw how much he pushed himself to be a hero, even past the point of all reason. His sarcastic distance, strong desire to be cool in the face of all the weird bullshit he has to deal with, and his inability to show any strong emotions is quite obviously his characterization. They even have an arc dedicated to that later in the series, even as a kid he hid his emotions, even when adults like his teacher tried to reach out to him. It's only after he becomes a wizard that he realizes how much he's damaged himself by pulling away from everyone around him and hiding his negative emotions. (Mostly his inability to ever give himself a break) In that way he's a lot like Eiji, who seemed really bland and boring when you set aside the parts of him that aren't often outwardly expressed: his ptsd, his self-sacrificing (to the point of ridiculousness) nature, and his inability to let himself feel feelings if he's worried other people will react badly. The writers sort of painted themselves into a corner by the very fact that yes, Haruto can still turn into Dragon if he despairs now, even though he's already overcome him. They never out and out say that in the series, but it's a common theme and Dragon does vaguely refer to it. That's part of the reason why the Phantoms never succeeded in making more Phantoms: That failure would bring Haruto to the brink of despair and neither the writers nor White Wizard wanted that. And crossover movie spoilers: The plot of that side of the movie is that there is a Phantom who becomes stronger by eating other Phantoms, and since Dragon has been developed within a wizard, he's now the strongest Phantom extant. He revives Koyomi so that fighting her will drive Haruto to despair.

I'll treasure that post in my heart forever.  Also I don't think it's too much to ask people to believe a cyborg also gets older. I mean Gavan's actor looked like a strip of jerky and he was believable enough as THREE heroes in one movie.

W spoilers Wakana changes her mind because she's shown that Philip is the avatar and her brother, her father finally brings her into the fold and tells her what he believes, that the world will be destroyed if they don't initiate the Gaia Impact. After that, even if she had had second thoughts again, Isaka starts to experiment on her and she becomes ClayDoll Xtreme, and she's basically unable to exercise her own will. The thing about the devil's tail is pretty obvious... Shotaro even goes over it in the arc. Ryubee is loving crazy. He put all his positive memories about his family and his life into that fetishistic item so that maybe when this is all over he can go back and get it and everything can be the way it used to be. It's that compartmentalization that allows him to put his children in danger and even sever Philip/Raito completely from his family unit.
