>>158179478
That seems reasonable

>>158179478
>Character clearly says "Papa"
>Translated as "Dad"

Just why?

I bet you're one of those people who think not including honorifics in the subs is resonable too

heart is pounding

>>158179676
It is, provided the tone stays the same.

Usually it's not though.

I have to agree with OP though, that shit is cancer

just write them the way they're pronounced retard. is this b8?

Blame yourself for watching translations.

>>158181383
Does a word/grammatical phenomenon exist in the language?
>Yes
Understandable have a nice day.
>No
Using it is wrong translation. Try harder, fag.

>>158181542
but it's the kind of translation all weebs want and who do you think watches anime translated into english in the first place?

>>158181649

That's not true and even if it is who cares.

>>158181649

Not exclusively weebs?

fansubs are closer to the original so it's a better translation baka

>>158182140
>a better translation is the one closest to the original

Then just leave the original language in and change nothing. Oh wait that's because that's not what a translation is. Idiot.

>>158182140
>fansubs are closer to the original so it's a better translation
Then why bother 翻訳している at all? Just keep all the 言葉's untranslated.

Doki doki should be rub a dub dub thanks for the heartbeat

>>158182196
>>158182288
the point is to make it understandable to people who don't speak japanese but be still as close as possible to the original, holy shit do I really have to spell it out for you?

>>158182359
>to make it understandable to people who don't speak japanese

Because honorifics are understandable to people who don't speak japanese, right?

Just kill yourself anon, I doubt you could even spell out a grade 2 english book, let alone communicate your vague weaboo point.

>>158182359
Oh アノンくん、we're trying to explain to you why that's fucking stupid and downright wrong and only an uneducated 馬鹿 would desire such a thing.

Honorifics are required (most of the time but not always), I'll accept unique mannerisms too

>>158182503
I don't speak japanese and I understand them. I'm just saying it's the translation most people want

what do you propose fucking >thump thump

>>158182628
Well most people don't read a single book in the entire year. Most people not realizing the mistake isn't a reason to bastardize two languages at once.

>>158182829
>bastardize two languages at once

Just reminds me of the retarded ~ symbol that's thrown around often by weeb translators. Shits me up the wall.

You cared enough to reply, thanks for your (you) by the way.

How can Dokidoki be translated, though?

It's not like honorifics that can be kept, and you can't be literally and say THUMP THUMP

>>158182964
no one cares about lingual bastardization is what I told you in order to explain my point. I care about explaining my point to you. get a real comeback

Are you sure you don't mean "I don't care about lingual bastardization" pleb-kun?

>>158183276
and what have you contributed thus far anon kun?

>>158183265
If the character is basically saying "he caused me to doki doki", then butterflies in the stomach isn't that bad.

"Heart throbbing" give more of a scared or high adrenaline feeling in English

>>158183456
How about "my heart skipped a beat" ?

>>158179570
Papa in english is usually considered a lot more childish than in other languages I know.
Like "Papa" and "Mama" are p neutral in dutch for older people to say whereas in english it's seen as a sign the character is young or naive, maybe that's what the translators reason.

>>158183456
I'm not OP and I disagree with her statement, I just tried to provide a reasonable alternative.

>removing honorifics is good
Yeah, I sure love seeing highschoolers call each others sir and lady.

>>158183178
Oh so you ARE a retard and meant what you wrote. That makes things easy to understand.

>>158184160
As opposed to seeing highschoolers talk like weebs?

>>158183570
Better, but still not really the same as dokidoki in Japanese.

Honestly, the more I think about it, Butterflies seems like a good translation. It's kind of childish and silly, but so is Dokidoki itself.

>>158184334
so all japanese talk like weebs now?

>>158184419
When they speak english and start adding kun and san and retarded shit like that, yes.

>>158184419
Are you implying that a japanese person speaking japanese is the same as an english person randomly using japanese terms while otherwise speaking english?

>>158184295

Well you are a retard. It was just an observation.

>wanting an argument after posting twice that nobody cares

You can't make retardation like this up. You can only be a legit headcase.

>>158185045
I was asking what that observation was based on, dummy. you can't just call me a retard because you lost the argument

>>158183830
>Papa in english is usually considered a lot more childish than in other languages I know.
It's the same in Japanese. The neutral thing to say would be otou-san.

>>158179676
Including honorifics is fucking retarded. Not only is it clunky as fuck in english, but you can clearly hear the character say them anyway so including them is a waste provided you're not deaf.

You cannot blame translators for the inexpressive, figuratively poor and archaic nature of the japanese language.

>>158184476
>When they speak english and start adding kun and san and retarded shit like that, yes.
You mean when they speak in reference to the same culture you sought out your entertainment from, but can't be bothered to learn the least bit about.
