Idk about you English speakers, but here in Latin America, a lot of translations keep names the same. Our Dragon Ball dub never called Tenshinhan "Tien," for example. It's definitely not "thing, Japan." Just a more faithful dub than yours.

one example of performative behavior i've noticed for years is where when a piece of japanese media has a very widely used localized name in english some fans of it will insist on using the japanese name anyway for some reason. very "place, japan" vibes
English
@spO0nybard every single YGO character's name was only changed to sound "cooler" to Western kids, there is no reason to demand people use the localized names when they don't convey like
anything from the original name that would've been lost (like puns)

"If a character has a widely used English localization name it's kinda performative to use the name the people who made the character wanted to use."

@OddishHime I love you so much thank god I finally found someone who will say it

Genuine question why are the localised Americanised names generally deemed ok and correct for shonen

@SkyRaiderG7 The universe where random middle-aged Americans from the middle of Florida own Persona scares me

And one of the worst side effects of this is the fandom sees the author as expendable. They don’t truly want the author involved in their work. They want “fandom” to own the work. So anything from the author that goes against “fandom” is a violent attack on them

This whole Kei Urana and Gooseworx thing validates my opinion that fandoms are inherently poison as they’re just high school bully cliques for those who were too unpopular to be ones irl in high school

My mother wants to take me to the fucking Mario galaxy movie on my birthday and while I know I wont unironically enjoy it, that would be the funniest birthday ever I kind of cant say no

@thunderpunks @DootRevenant666 Geats big bad would be the Desire Grand Prix staff and their big boss is Suel
Suel imo isnt very good because he kinda just exists to be the villain because Girori is now cool with Ace and they found a way for the Jyamato to (try to) coexist

@allenvonghornet You don't get it, this is insanely nuanced its like W Mario reps and stuff

Losing “joker” “cloud” “hero” “sephiroth” and “Sora” for the only crossover rpg rep in smash bros to be GENO

Gen AI ruined Zero-One’s rep on Toku twitter💀

"AI" really killed my love for the whole "robots as oppressed people" trope. Now I see Astroboy villains talking like "a robot can't understand art!" and I'm like he's right though

@HikariTaiyo_ch I think theres some levels of truth to it but I cannot believe it 100%
There's definitely some men who suffer loneliness due to certain factors out of their control but I can't really believe its an epidemic entirely
English
Can someone tell me in PLAIN TERMS what “the male loneliness epidemic” is without vitriol? Is it repackaged incel terminology or what?
notShifu@isnot_shifu
"OH! It's a vtuber talking about the male loneliness epidemic! Let me SPRINT to go watch that"

@SkyRaiderG7 nah I am the most nuanced reviewer ever
YGO 5D's is trash and VRAINS is peak
English
I think people have forgotten how to use the term average or okay. Everything must be peak or trash now

@SkyRaiderG7 dammit, his Mister Shitacle is still on the table then
