Translation problems in the official English subs for Kizuna

We’re thankfully in an era where Digimon is getting official localizations again, and with much better quality than we used to, but, unfortunately, Kizuna’s official English subtitles have problems that are detrimental to the movie. (Even worse, the official English dub is obviously based off the same mistranslated script, so a lot of its issues are carried over.) It’s not to say that the movie can’t still be enjoyed well enough or understood with it, but this is a fast-paced 90-minute movie that relies on a lot of nuance in key lines, and it’s not like we haven’t already had issues with things with a more oblique storytelling style getting accused of being “difficult to understand” or “incomprehensible” due to the impact of a less-than-ideal translation (hi, Hurricane Touchdown and X-Evolution).

In this post, I’m going to point out some of the more glaring translation issues in said official release and why they pose a problem. Note that I still endorse supporting the official localized release if you can – it’s very important that we still show our support for Digimon products having demand outside Japan, especially subtitled, and I also feel we’ve still come a long way from the time when official Digimon subtitles used to be borderline bootleg tier – but I’m writing this post as important reference so people are aware of the translation issues if they need to do deeper analysis of the movie’s dialogue. Note that the Dash X Bunko edition of the novel has the movie’s dialogue transcribed effectively word-for-word, so I suggest referring to this translation of it if you would like to reference a more accurately translated version of the dialogue.

#digimon #kizuna #i've probably reblogged this before but i've been thinking about this stuff a lot since 02tb came out #the number of people that completely misinterpret kizuna because of shit like this is fucking insane and i hate it #it really feels like i watched a completely different movie from most people #and frankly i did lol since i've never actually watched the official subs (even tho i own it) #and now with 02tb #even tho i saw the official subs in theater i still feel like i watched a completely different movie from most people #i cannot wait for fansubs of 02tb so i feel actually confident in my understanding of the story #i will impatiently wait for onkei's hard work

No idea if this was done with Daiken already, but the Meme inside the Meme alone is too good to pass it on.

Round One Match Seven: Allen Walker and Kanda Yuu (D. Gray Man) vs Tao Ren and Horohoro (Shaman King)

why should you vote for them?

Allen Walker and Kanda Yuu (1):

despite antagonizing each other every time they appear together they are incredibly in sync and almost are telepathic re: everyday life and battles . and despite each being the antithesis of the other's principles allen basically sacrifices himself to his evil soul roommate AND the police (disgusting) to help kanda stay at his childhood friend's dying side, and so too does kanda join that police force Again (after he was able to escape. because he hates them and resents them and was forced to be there) to help allen escape from them. to repay that debt....

Tao Ren and Horohoro (nepotismed in by mod goose):

so very gay and so very rivals. they're teammates but all their conversations are bickering. they will and have died for each other. ren is such a homoerotic shonen rival he has a whole other homoerotic shonen rivalry with another guy that has more homo but less rivalry. I showed a picture of them to my friend and she thought they were married. snarky bastard x loud. one time a translation accidentally canonized romantic feelings (exaggeration). ren has canonically jabbed horo with his stupid fucking hair. c'mon guys please

#hororen #mankin #tumblr polls #this is over already #but hororen was the correct answer guys #how dare #not actually surprised tho #mankin is not nearly popular enough :'( #also #i wouldn't say yohren is more homo than hororen #definitely less rivals tho because yoh is too high to know what rivalry even is #also ALSO #hororen are extremely in sync #that whole fight in the desert during the plants is them practically reading each other's minds #they could only have done that TOGETHER #they're gay your honor
