Just translate “カリ” as “Temp” “Head”. Untranslation bad.

Puns are pretty hard, if not imosssible sometimes, to translate while keeping the meaning. I'd give the translator some slack here.
My main issue is not with the handling of the pun. After thinking about it some, I couldn't think of anything to maintain it either. (Tho I would've expressed things more clearly.) My main issue is with their (un)translation of “カリフック” as “Cali Hook”. “カリ” means “(penis) head”. Did you understand that from “Cali”? The move should be called “Head Hook”. It's a sex term. As for the “temporary” pun, there's maybe something you could do with “head”, but that's whatever.

Yeah, don't you hate it when they leave "onigiri" instead of "rice ball," or "onee-chan" instead of "biggy sissy," or "kouhai" instead of "lower-grade associate." Just takes me right out of the whole thing. Fucking weebs.
Unlike some people, I understood the sarcasm
