Ah, so every zero effort Stand name was just the rights holder being a dick and refusing to let them use anything cool? That's disappointing, but I guess it makes more sense than the intern bungling the main character's Stand name.

I thought that the people who localized the games came up with the names and whoever owns jojo retained rights to the new names which is why Crunchyroll is also using them

Digamma-F-Wau posted:I thought that the people who localized the games came up with the names and whoever owns jojo retained rights to the new names which is why Crunchyroll is also using them The rights holders usually have to approve translations of proper terms like Stand names, so they're at least a bit involved in the process.

the most confusing thing about the changed stand names to me is that gold experience had to be changed in all star battle, but soft & wet remained the same

The original bands have nothing to do with it. When I say rights holders, I mean like Shueisha/WB. The rights holders of Jojo. Like, the explicit point of changing the names is to keep the bands off their asses.

Yeah, stuff like that is why Kamui went untranslated in Kill la Kill, why the names of characters in Kotobuki are in all caps, and why we got an anime named Rascal Does Not Dream Of Bunny Girl Senpai.

He's just a random computer hacker tasked with reconstructing the picture of Venice that is relevant in Ghiaccio's fight. There was a scene in an earlier episode where Risotto finds the burnt pieces.

Yeah the guy with Risotto is analyzing the burned parts of the picture that Pericolo left so they can know where the OA Disc which has the location of the hand off point for Trish to the Boss

Probably because they think the new reference isn't going to get them sued, like when Devo the Cursed became Soul Sacrifice, J Geil became Centrefold, and Oingo and Boingo becoming Zenyatta Mondatta and also almost every stand in part 4.

Going back to copyright, how can band/song/album names that are just regular words be so well-guarded? Surface was one of the biggest gripes for me. It's just an everyday word so why did they have to change it? Is it specifically because the Stand being called Surface was made out as a reference?
|
# ? Feb 3, 2019 00:58 |

Because all the other band names remove any plausible deniability.

"Yeah sure there's Crazy Diamond and Killer Queen and Red Hot Chili Peppers but we swear, this one is definitely not a reference!"
