#subtitle zim

So, I posed the idea... somewhere on here a while ago wondering why Zim couldn't just program subtitles for himself through his universal translator and ocular implants program, but the more I thought about it...
It's very likely that subtitles are a foreign concept to Irken society.
Every Irken has a universal translator in their PAK. Damage to the internal ear or antennae are eventually repaired by the PAK. Smeets born deaf are likely culled shortly after hatching. It's a very real possibility that something like subtitles haven't been needed in centuries, and if they ever were a thing, they've been long forgotten.
Fine for everyone else, but for someone like Zim who either has APD, partial hearing loss or both, this is a huge handicap and just one of the many, many defects he has to hide.
It's got to be a game changer the day they watch some foreign film in class with subtitles, and Zim has to ask why there are words on the bottom of the screen. What do you mean you don't just understand what they're saying? The words are what now? After that, it's not much to expect Zim to program subtitles into his PAK.
In a crossover I'm working on, I figured Donnie (ROTTMNT) would teach him ASL while Zim's figures out the programming because it's still a good skill to have and he's already worked out the kinks to their three fingered-accent.
And then I had to wonder, how would I tackle their three-fingered accent? Finger spelling would be difficult since they don't have enough fingers to differentiate between T, N and M and W would have to be modified. Numbers would be near impossible, and my vocabulary is still pretty limited, but I imagine there are words that'd have to be modified.
So, serious question to anyone out there with more ASL knowledge than me: What would their accent look like/how would you tackle it?
Edit: The original has been found!

Okay so here's screencaps of the subs both normal and animatic for vindicated/the voting of the doomed. I'm working on some other episodes now but. only the back half of gaz taster of pork had animatics? and in general vlc+animatic mode+irken subs are being iffy on playing so I need to confirm on a real disk player if those exist- for example frycook has full animatics but I cannot get irken subs up on the animatic?
anyway expect xmas episode in a few hours and maybe some answers?

Master Detective Archives (2008-2009, Nicktoons)
screenshots taken from episode 3A "House of Hecksmile" and episode 7A, "Halara's Nightmare"!
early concept art reveals the character of "Yomi Hecksmile" was originally referred to as "Yomi Hellsmile", but due to pushback from censors, his name was changed. additionally, while halara was never referred to by any gender in the original english, in languages where this is difficult, they are referred to by both masculine and feminine terminology.
(weeheehee i made moreeeee!!! might make a Lore Post at some point but relevant bits are under the cut + more bonus arts)
so when i draw these, the design sensibilities are based on children's cartoons that pushed the boundaries of what was acceptable for a y7 rating, but still maintained a solidly "for children" audience. think invader zim, billy and mandy, etc. so to fit in with my Lore for this fake rain code nicktoon... i had to change yomi's name. his name is Hecksmile now. honestly i think that makes it funnier.
i'm pretty sure that halara is mostly referred to with feminine terms in languages where that's unavoidable (french, spanish, etc), but unlike the rain code localization teams, i'm not afraid of nonbinary people. i know i was just talking abt changing yomi's name for Standards And Practices, but i like to think this show aired in the Woke 2008 That The Liberals And Joe Biben Wanted. i think that would also be funny. so in the international dubs of Master Detective Archives for Nickelodeon, halara gets the mangle fnaf treatment. why? because i think that's cool.
ok here comes some bonus stuff!
Tumblr media
shoutout to steam code from the rain coat server for suggesting the "snooping as usual" from satam scene. i changed the dialogue to make it fit more with what i had in mind but this one was supposed to be a pingas joke.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
the versions w no subtitles... now you can see allergy-riddled halara's hastily-drawn tissue box in all its glory.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
and of course, some more of the cast! aphex and pucci actually get to be main cast members this time, yippee! don't worry, zange and melami are still here, but they're closer to side characters. still, probably more screentime than in canon.
i wouldn't say any of my designs for this little project are strict improvements from the original rc designs, but seth's is a whole lot more fun to draw. shaped like a fuckin boobah.

Helluva Boss (other) S2 trailer breakdown
Viziepop and the crew are back to releasing Helluva Boss content, which also now includes shorts, so to celebrate they released another trailer going over what will happen for the rest of Helluva Boss season 2.
So the trailer opens with what sounds like I.M.P. being wanted criminals, but I bet it’s taken out of context. Same with the scene of Blitzo saying they are on the run, which likely means he is just trying to get away from someone like Verosika or a ghost given what happens later on.
Points for the writers having Moxxie stand up to Blitzo by saying how much he hates him XD.
The Cherubs will be working with DHORKS! I recall that being a prediction/episode idea in a past work of mine so it’s nice to see that coming true. Looks like they will work together to open a portal to Hell where they kidnap Stolas or Blitzo but more on that later. I will say if it’s possible that at the end of the episode, their actions result in the Cherubs becoming fallen angels as stated in Hazbin Hotel.
Looks like some crazed robot runs amuck in the Lust Ring. If you pause it just right, the robot seems to have a symbol I think is inspired by something from Invader Zim. Wouldn’t be the first time as HH had a Overlord that looked by Dib’s dad.
No surprise, the "GhostF^*$ers" episode is a Ghostbusters parody, among other horror movie parodies and it seems like that hotel manager is possessed by something like demon. Blitzo is confirmed to be afraid of ghost so it would be interesting to see him deal with that fear. Also the episode could go over ghost and states between life and the afterlife, and how they work. I’m also getting a Zestial vibe from the manager from time to time.
We will indeed finally learn what Stolas does on Full Moons, which seems to involve a meeting between the royals of Hell, and not just the Goetia/bird demons. I see a snake demon (which maybe is part of the dinosaur population in Hell), a Baphomet, and what looks like a dog or cat like creature that has same ears as Queen Bee among what looks like wings! Are there other insect hybrids in Hell besides Bee? Could my bee demons headcanon still be actually canon?
However the biggest character seen there is that red bird Overlord from the Hazbin Hotel pilot! We finally know his name, which is Basago, I think it’s how its spelled because the subtitles aren’t helping. It’s cool to see that he is still around, actually wasn’t he or that 2 faced Overlord originally supposed to be Stolas before VIvzie changed it? I wonder if Basago is still an Overlord or not? This bring up some other questions, like can Hellborns (especially royals) be/also Overlords? I think so as along with Rosie being an Overlord with her also being implied to have been born in Hell, Zilla looks like she could be part of the Hellborn dinosaur race.
Basago seems concerned about Stolas, making me wonder if he could become an ally of his in the future. Could they be brothers?
Just wanted to point out Stolas reading another romance book, this one called Passion’s Brimstone. The cover has 2 Goetias looking lovingly at each other, making me think the book is about Goetias not happy in their arrange marriages and have an affair with each other, AKA what Stolas is going through. I wonder if it’ll be revealed that the book is based on an actual story, and Stolas finds comfort in another Goetia who hates the arrange marriage thing.
Andrealphus will be getting more screen time. Good because I’ve had some interesting ideas about him since his last appearance but let’s see the rest of the trailer first.
I wonder if that part about Stolas wanting someone to care about him will happen in front of the rest of I.M.P. or even a Goetia?
Blitzo is definitely going to say that rant in front of the Goetia meeting.
BLITZO’S MOM!
(sees tough character in shadow) Who is that? Could that be Satan? Does he agree that royals shouldn't date Imps, or does he think someone is just acting pathetic and dishonorable like Ozzie, Mammon, or a royal?
Blitzo and Stolas are around snow. THEY ARE GOING TO FIGHT ANDREALPHUS!
Yeah that hotel guy is definitely possessed. Given you can see aquatic features, its likely something from the Envy Ring. Looks like it can possess demons too given it is followed by
Millie fighting Blitzo.
That was Verosika cutting that dead Blitzo cake. No surprise she still has issues about him, but it looks like she and him will be able to deal with them in “Apology Tour” kind of like what happened with Blitzo and Fizz in “Oops”
Also is it just me or does Verosika’s chest look smaller then before?
Mammon is at the Goetia meeting? Does that mean Bee and the other sins will be there too? I bet Lucifer won’t be there due to more important things, aka making ducks or spending time with Charlie. Not to mention they haven’t had big HH cameos yet so I don’t see them doing it now, though prove me wrong writers. Also Mammon has a fidget spinner and finger skateboard with him. I don’t think I need to remind people that he is an idiot.
Is Fizz hooking Blitzo up with a romantic hotel room? I see the thing having a hat that looks like Stolas, yet I bet this will be for Blitzo and Verosika.
(Millie with glass in eye) OH SHIT MILLIE! PLEASE don’t let her loose that eye. I’ve said it before but there are too many similarities between Helluva Boss and Hazbin Hotel already, and we DON’T need any more.
Looks like Millie joins in with Blitzo on his “higher ups suck” speech.
While its likely Stolas’ comment about feeling remorse for what someone does is aimed at Stella or Andre, I feel like he is talking to Blitzo. Maybe Stolas wonders what it’s like for him to kill someone, as maybe he is debating about killing Stella and Andre before they go after him again?
Again, Blitzo and Stolas will fight Andre. Did he ice Stolas’ house? Is that the house Stella was living at during season 1? Did Andre inherit it? Again more on that later.
UGH Again Octavia is complaining about her father liking Blitzo more than he does her and Stella. We’ve seen this already; can we please get something else from her. Back when the Instagram accounts were used, I recall a Halloween pic of her and Stolas where Stolas says Octavia was always against the norm, so why not have a plot with her wanting to do something else with her life besides be royalty, like become a professor in astronomy? This also reminds me of a Tumblr post I made about how Stella could be trying to take her away from Stolas, but now I feel like she would WILLINGLY try to stay away from her father, and I think we can agree that would be sad (and boring) to see.
This is the only time we see Stella in this trailer, meaning she will likely have a small role…again. Recently I made a Tumblr post about if Helluva Boss might have been better if she was dead before the events of the series, and I want to know your thoughts about it.
Looks like Octavia will be getting a song. She is holding a tear drop, which I wonder if it’s a callback to the name of the meteor shower she didn’t get to see with her dad, or if it represents how she feels. Likely the latter.
Are the agents and cherubs going to torture Blitzo by making him look at his past mistakes? That is messed up and would definitely make the cherubs become fallen angels. At least Cletus and Keenie. It would explain that scene of Blitzo seeing his mom. At least it sounds like Blitzo will finally move on from his pain this season.
Stolas singing at a what I think looks like a “Blitzo Sucks” concert with Verosika and Tex. Obviously they want us to think he’s moved on from Blitzo, but I bet they will get together either this season, or they will at least become friends and get together in season 3, as it’s confirmed that Helluva Boss will have a total of 4 seasons.
Nice to get a timeline of when the episodes will come out, I think no one doubted the Ghost and Sinsmas episodes would come out on their fitting holidays. Fingers crossed there are no delays…and that we get shorts between the long gap between June and October.
With this I have predictions for what the episodes will be about. “Full Moon” will be Blitzo and Stolas dealing with DHORKS and Cherubs where they FINALLY get over their drama but decide to become friends/friends willing to try dating. “Apology Tour” has IMP helping Verosika, likely from some fan/rival given the robot looking thing, where they get help from Fizz and Blitzo and Verosika have their own little “Oops” plot line. “Ghostf%$%^ers" will be a Blitzo and Mille team up episode where they deal with a wandering spirit or demon, where tension will form between Blitzo and Millie which I think would be great to see as they haven’t really had conflict between them yet. “Mastermind” is a bit tricky, but I think during a meeting of Hell’s royalty/higher ups Stolas will be missing because he has to deal with something involving Blitzo or Octavia, or both and its likely Andre’s fault. That’s bad as they need for something, so it’s a race against time. I feel like this will be the beginning of a storyline where people will start to look into Stolas to see if he committed any crimes. Maybe it will be about Mammon using that robot I mentioned earlier to try and get Fizz back, and IMP is hired to protect him? “Sinsmas” will be the episode where Blitzo and Stolas fight Andre, who is likely there with Stella visiting Octavia during the holiday. They get into a fight, but I feel like this will make Octavia mad at her dad and decides to live with her mom from now on. This could lead to a finale cliffhanger where in a reverse from season 1, Stolas wants time away from Blitzo, hopefully not as we don't need to go through that again.
That was an entertaining trailer. Love that they seem to be going back to storylines like Blitzo dealing with his past (especially those involving romance) by interacting with his former love interest face to face like Verosika and especially Stolas. I really like that we will get to learn more about things like what Stolas does on Full Moons (if anything) and that meeting of Hell’s royalty.
What I really loved is that Andre will be getting more screen time, as recently I’ve had a new idea for what could happen if he was made the main antagonist of Helluva Boss. In the past I said he would go after Stolas’ family and while I still think that will happen, he will eventually realize Stolas’ position is small when compared to becoming a Sin. That’s right I think it would be crazy awesome if Andre tries to overthrow Asmodeus! I could see other royals not liking the idea of a Sin dating an Imp, so I bet they would want to get rid of him for that and I can see Andre taking that chance to get more power.
What were your thoughts on the trailer? Do you agree/disagree with anything in this breakdown?

So, a lot of people seem to head canon Zim as either partially deaf or with auditory processing disorder, which I can absolutely see and agree with either interpretation. Something is going on with the little Invader that prevents him from understanding everyone.
But you're tell me that the highly intelligent, former Irken scientist that goes out of his way to modify absolutely everything, has whatever is in his PAK that translates English for him, and an internal HUD that shows his life clock didn't modify the crap out of all that to give his life subtitles?
The way I see it, Zim is partially deaf, and even with subtitles, he's just really, really shit at listening to other people.

I LOVE DVDS. I have all the live action Transformers dvds + the 1986 movie (is waiting for ROTB to come out I think... next month??)
As convenient streaming services are, I will never forgive them for what they did to the DVD and movie rental industry. It makes me sad hearing that houses not having DVD players is a normal thing. FUCK YOU NETFLIX I'm going to keep buying DVDs with funky menus and exclusive bonus features and there's nothing you can do to stop me !!! Anyways, rant over. Any DVDs you have that are special to you?
DVDs are forever!!! They have subtitles! Scene selection! Special features!!! Audio commentary!!! I hate Netflix and Disney+ with what they've done to society and media preservation. However, I do use my parents Netflix while they still have it (I told them to pirate instead but Dad is so worried about viruses and shit.)
I don't think you understand what you've unleashed anon, do you want to see my DVDs?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Too bad. Here you go. (Some aren't in the right spots and the rest of Legend of Korra is in a different room). No I'm not gonna show you ever DVD but try and spot something you might recognise.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
My Sonics and Zim collection are very important to me. Sonic X dub DVDs I got as a kid but I also have the Discotek Complete Series Japanese version!
Tumblr media
I love my cartoons!! These aren't even all of them! I have Samurai Jack 1-4 somewhere. (Season 5 still pisses me off.) Next time I might go to JB HiFi and get more Nick or CN stuff, whichever is there.
Tumblr media
There's also this Yu-Gi-Oh DM boxset a friend in America bought me! Sure, it's dub only, BUT it comes with Bonds Beyond Time Eng and Jpn!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Something I value a lot though is my Space Ghost Coast to Coast collection and my Brak Show collection!!! Not sure where I'd be without my stupid space friends.
Look, there's a lot of DVDs I find special to me. My Princess Diaries dvd set. My SpongeBob movie dvd. All my SpongeBob DVDs actually. The Rescuers collection. Swan Princess collection. School of Rock. Darkstalkers OVA.
But something I always come back to is....this.
Tumblr media
Peak media.
Also hey speaking of Transfomers-
Tumblr media
Got this for my birthday this year from my parents.
Sorry that was such a big answer anon, I'm just so passionate about physical media. Thank you for sending a message! Means a lot to me.

Hi, I’m sure I made a post mentioning sideblogs, but tumblr seems to have at least hidden it from me :p
But just in case it’s relevant I’m making a more cohesive list:
@ionroir Invader Zim sideblog, currently the one I post the most on.
@evil-magic-subtitles disability stuff ayyy
@go-deo-na-ndeor Irish language stuff (a good few of the posts there are here as well, but y’know)
@not-even-nostalgia your man obsesses even more over shows meant for people far younger than me :D
I have a few others but those have the most posts, so ye I kind of regret making so many but it’s too late now
