You don't know the history of Japanese street culture, I do!
EDIT--Yes I know the HTML is wonky. I'm not sure how to fix it, since I did it the same as I always do. And on the edit screen, it won't let me click the "insert link" button. Anyway, on with the wank.

ANOTHER EDIT--Ok, I changed it to HTML formatting and had to go in and change stuff because it translated < and > as bizarre strings of code. Just in case anyone has that trouble in the future.



Man, I leave a thread overnight and look what happens.

Anyway, I posted a thread in the Digimon comm about the first episode of the latest dubbed season, Data Squad.

Most people liked it, especially since only one unnecessary shot (of someone being kicked in the balls) was cut and the biggest change was a few names.

But apparently to some people, that's "butchering". Especially to Bucue, a known dub-hating troll who flames every topic having to do with the series' dubs.

But meh it's the dub, better things to do that worry how many limbs they cut off to amuse children."

or

"Funny here's me thinking they completely removed all the Japanese music and changed the character names.

Ah dub fans, can't see the trees for the forest~
"

And, in a discussion about translating the main character's goals,

"Firstly, Do you know Japanese culture at all? [...]
Either way I'm bored of you, go enjoy your dub, some of us don't want to watch butcheries like this one.
"


Oh yeah, because a dub with one missing scene that would have upped the rating is *so* far removed from the original. Riiiight.

Bonus--Yakuza wank!

Dammit! And now I can't figure out how to fix it, since I see that I opened and closed every tag. Any thoughts?

From here, it looks like it needs to be [a href="Url goes here"]Words![/a] if you're not using that (with greater thans and less thans).

Yeah, that's exactly what I did. I'm guessing it has to do with the upgrade since none of my previous posts did this.

jf just started using the rich text thing that lj has. it's kind of neat but if you weren't expecting it that's what happened. try going to edit and looking for the rich text/simple tab and switch over. :)

That was what I thought this was for a second, with the "how many limbs they cut off" thing mentioned.

butchering

In any discussion of anime adaptations, this is automatically the part where I stop reading.

But they just started the post, they didn't participate in the wank? Does postage in any discussion wank ends up happening in equal [info]i_wank? (seriously looking for a clarification here)

Digimon fen will always, ALWAYS pick up on the stupidest, most minor and petty shit to bitch about. It astounds me. They can watch their precious fansubs if indirect translation and name changes bothers them that goddamn much. It especially astounds me when they go into all this crap about Japanese culture, and translation and all that, all the while acknowledging it's a childrens' cartoon.

The rest of us will sit in the corner with our little cartoon and calmly wait for NEW TOYS, thx.

For cosplay purposes only. Really.

Speaking of new toys, I haven't seen Digimon stuff on the shelves in ages. Are they going to ever release any more in the states? One would think that they'd want to release them like, at least a month ago to pollinate the market.

I'm seeing someone being a stupid dumbass, but that happens all the time on the internet, but no wank. *sits with the other "Where's the wank?" folks*
