The face noting, "was there even a point in having text here?"

Dun-dun-DUN!

I think they are talking about Fanbook 4. The Q&A with Miya Kazuki included an answer to the question about the song "dedicated to God of Fire" Rozemyne played during her debut, which was a song about "aiming to be the very best". Although I am fairly certain non-dub Pokémon anime had a very...

Note: "Purin" means "pudding". …probably.

And then Kars stopped thinking.

Ah yes, "Communists", a demographic that VIZ media caters to and hires from exclusively, apparently :thonk: Yeah, I'm sure that that's why you wouldn't be hired and not any other reason.

PING-PONG! …circulate.

Considering how nitpicks you keep making against translations of others don't make much sense, I find your expertise of determining what does and what doesn't preserve the specific way characters speak to be questionable at best.

If that's your approach to understanding English, I can't even imagine what kind of inaccuracies you introduce when you "localize" works written in other languages. Why, at this point you might as well complain that the author is the one writing the manga wrong, seeing how you are going to...

Imagine complaining about validity of translation of a title of one page of a comedy manga as if language was some sort of absolute, unchanging object, and words within it — perfect representations of platonic ideas.

I can imagine it. Oof.

So you picked one definition that explicitely excludes this example from being slang while ignoring every other definition that does no suh thing and you talk to me about confirmation bias? That's hilarious. You do realise that this overly narrow definition also excludes the officially...

I don't know what you think definition of slang is, but actual definition has nothing to do with age groups and everything to do with casual and informal vocabulary. Here's cambridge dictionary's definition, for example:

But the source material is using slang. Surely you didn't think that "わからん" is the full, non-shortened Japanese for "I do not understand"? That would be "わからない" or even "分かりません", for the record. Similarly, what they used for "ain't [my,your] throat parched?"(literally, that's what "nodo...

Phones these days are supposed to do anything. Just use the app that suspends your disbelief for you :V

Casual speech is slang-laden drivel. Nobody is going to use long-ass (or "verbose" for those of you with slang allergy) terms like "shortened language" when shorter words like "slang" do just fine.
