That's okay, you can just take the identical one a few feet down the street Don't worry about the original owner, it'll respawn before they notice

  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonkatsu https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chawanmushi In general, I don't like "translating" foods either. I guess I could have localized it.

I figure it's best not to translate them when they refer to a specific Japanese food (especially when the word is used in English) since translated or not it's still set in Japan. I can see localizing the money from a reader friendliness perspective though.

I think tonkatsu is pretty well known in North America by now, I don't think the other one is though.

Personally I'd prefer it if you didn't translate approximately every other noun for accuracy's sake.

You should localize people's names too. Tohru/Touru is too confusing, let's go with Tony.

You could use Japanese transliteration with the anglofied translation in brackets, e.g. ramen (noodle soup). Or the translation in a footnote.

I think we European readers deserve a separate localization or we might get confused. (Joking ofc but I like it localized, I only know a little bit about Japanese food.) Grevling fucked around with this message at 11:29 on Mar 13, 2022 |

 super sweet best pal posted:Chawanmushi sounds tasty. If it has its own English Wikipedia page, I think it's unique enough to leave it as it is. What Tony is cooking/eating is one of the most important parts of the plot, so I'm going to be as accurate as reasonable and just link to a description if I need to. Maybe it'll even encourage some of you to try the new dish. Even I didn't know about chawanmushi until this panel. "Steamed egg custard" is less specific, and I still would had have needed to look it up anyway, so I saw no benefit to it.

This reminds me of Persona 4 where you’d need to do a bunch of supplementary googling about Japanese food to help your anime man pack himself a school lunch

 Here's the best explanation I could find for why they are emailing each other instead of SMSing: http://www.rentafonejapan.com/Email-Texting.html tl;dr: You can't SMS across providers apparently. I think most people use Line these days though, but it's been a while since I lived there so I'm not sure.
