Dice of Chaos

Ouch, it's the translator's nightmare mode: Japanese puns and symbolism.

On the bright side, I don't think I've once ran into anyone complaining about those being localized.

They make honorifics positively tame in comparison. At least you could leave those in and it makes some kind of sense. Puns and symbolism either get localized or you wind up with the raw text and then two pages of translator notes.
