Yikes, Tifa!

based

Since you know this is a hecking problematic nazi mistranslation I assume you know what Tifa said in the original, GJC raider-kun

"Stop acting like a nigger and climb!"

Based original

This but unironically.

Trannies didn't exist in 1997.

The answer was never

I hate localization

It has always been

I hate shitty localization

And it's hilarious you retards don't get it yet.

dood I want literal translation, anime characters should speak backwards in Japanese sentence structure

Many are saying this actually, chud.

I know.
They're retards too.

I still use retarded often in public settings. No one has gotten upset yet. I think it's just a terminally online people thing.

Imagine being so sensitive that you cry at the word retard being used in a game

Why are trannys and SJWs so fucken dumb?

Why is retard a no-no word now?

Retarded was "problematic" in communist California settings in the early 2010s, maybe earlier. It has never and will never be a new N-word in actual human non-satanic communities.

literal means syntax, not context CHEWD

You're are an dumb

Those were less retarded times.

Gooning for Tifa!

They reprinted an Invincible comic book recently and changed a joke about Blockbuster to Amazon Prime. So le localization cancer is not even exclusive to translation anymore, they're just doing it to reprintings now.

They did, it's just the moral panic boogeyman was still just music and video games back then.

You will never be a woman, kill yourself

Yuck, a Styx fan.

I still call things gay, no one irl cares dude

If you're autistic or ADHD you can say retard. Also no I don't need to show you my fucking medical record, listen and believe chud.

No, because you fucking made that up.
She was a terrorist, but she wasn't edgy about it. She was never a mean girl in any way shape or form, unless you're counting threatening Don Corneo or something.
She was always waifu pandering, she was created to stay by Cloud's side throughout the game and that's exactly what she does.
There is absolutely criticism to give about how Tifa's anger was softened by Remake's translation and adding several scenes where she reiterates her concern for noncombatant Shinra employees. But that's not you've said.

I'd believe they used the word retard in the original Japanese
They had kid shows say it

They didn't in this case.

"the word retard" i.e.. the word for deceleration used for mentally handicapped people is not used in Japanese.

This is one of only two instances where Tifa shows any semblance of an actual personality that isn't "Cloud..." throughout the entire franchise and it's completely made up, lol.

is there some form of the word for idiot considered roughly equivalent in severity by pronunciation or context?

Why is retard a no-no word nowadays? It's a perfectly normal verb in French and chemistry journals.

Well obviously in Dragon Ball, Gohan says "usunoro" which shocks and offends buu, but I don't think it has anything to do with mental retardation.

funnily enough this is wildly different from the original japanese but it doesn't matter when you like it

Californians arbitrarily decided it in like 2008 and then act shocked when Midwesterners and people on the east coast had no idea what they were talking about.

Why aren't games like this anymore?

isn't that cloud's canon character arc?

Well I am no Californian, Midwestern or any kind of American spook (yes I know what spook also means). Can you knock it off.

I'm pretty sure that literally translated to broken/flawed brain, ie brain damaged or congenitally retarded

That's exactly the example I ask for. I don't care about Tifa, that line is just an amusing spectacle, but I want really badly for Gohan to call Majin Buu a retard. It seems to fit with the disbelief conveyed afterwards at how shocking what he just said was.

I can no longer tell if these weird mtg cards are real.

source, you NIGGER

Why is a game made for teens not allowed to say bad words? You know not everything is made for 5-year old's, right?

It’s only in like a business setting where people care about retard. The social stigma somehow around it just disappeared.

MTG just released a massive Final Fantasy deck

Censorship gives pathetic worthless subhumans a sense of purpose, and those people tend to be the ones in power.

He says 薄鈍 (うすのろ). Usunoro romanisized, roughly equivalent of dimwit.

Hm kichigai is close. More like saying "chain yourself up in an institution you fucking freak" but is on the level of nigger. You only see that shit on 2ch.

I hope this doesn't derail too hard but isn't it kinda ironic that it seemed like conservative-leaning guys were usually the ones to get upset about hte word "retard" irl? they'd always be the ones like "now ah's got a cousin whoz--"

No, you're projecting a unique encounter that you had like it axiomatically applies to everyone. This has never happened to me.

Is there a way to break the syntax down for the word for how its roots may intend to convey a certain idea? Like idk if it's accurate but certain readings sound like it may want to convey "slowed brain" which would definitely fit "retard" very literally.

en.wiktionary.org/wiki/うすのろ
"retard" is only one of the definitions but it's definitely the rudest way to call someone stupid, which is why you never hear it and why everyone's jaw drops when Gohan says it (it also fits with the running gag of the polite, soft spoken Gohan saying the meaner things than any of the other characters when he's mad)

This line is censored because it's completely different from what Tifa says in Japanese, but I guess adding the retard word magically makes up for the line being butchered.

guys, doesn't it seem like beer swilling, Trump supporting, anti-abortion, gun toting, conservative right wing Christian white guys are the bad gays? You agree with me in, right?

You're free to copy and paste 薄 and 鈍, the kanji that make the word separately but it doesn't always bring new light.

lmao I'm sharing real life experience and your feelings are caught. remind me who's triggered by reality again? actually on second thought stop talking to me

Way to go tranny.

Censored where? Retard is in the steam and ps4 version. What the fuck are you talking about? And since when do trannylators give a single fuck about accuracy anyway?

I think that's definitely the etymology, the kanji don't seem to have anything to do with the pronunciation or meaning and the kanji form of the word is basically never used.
kanji is a retarded writing system

Yeah I kinda forgot Gohan's getting mad thing but then again maybe the ultimate stuff was supposed to get him past that (or not Toriyama-sensei wrote this weekly and admittedly forgot a lot of stuff.)
All in all it's a very rude insult.

"lackwit" sounds like a pretty direct translation but it probably doesn't convey the cultural context of how shocking what he just said was

The line itself is censorship because it replaces the JP line with "fucks like a tiger"-tier butchered dialogue. Read the thread.

I saw Godzilla yesterday. He stomped on my house and I am now homeless. I am writing this from a library computer. You had better fucking not call me a liar for this, or you are a fucking insecure nazi chud.

He integrated the power of his rage in to his base form, which is why he didn't have to get mad to call Buu a retard

Why is retard a no-no word nowadays?

Euphemism treadmill

Yeah I think retard is pretty apt in terms of meaning and cultural context

the point isn't the validity of the story, the point is how you read something reflective of something of a narrative that doesn't suit yours and your panties IMMEDIATELY went in a twist and you jumped to argue. these stereotypes are so fucking ass-backwards man, you maga types are the biggest snowflake pussies.

No, poorly translating a line is not automatically censorship. Are you genuinely fucking brain damaged?

Why is retard a bad word? Nobody calls people with mental retardation 'retarded' anymore; the term is developmentally disabled. Retarded nowadays is really just a term for performing comically beneath your ordinary mental faculties. Why is this so hard for normitors to grasp?

You really are an embarrassing fucking retard, holy shit. Kill yourself. Wait, is this supposed to be funny? Or something?

They are real.
Not yet, June 6th is the prerelease I think.

When I make a completely normal post similar to something I would have posted in like 2010 and some autistic worthless tranny retard goes "UMMMM UR MAGA CHUD" it really just makes me sad.

poorly translating

It's a complete rewrite. You're only okay with it because it says "retard", which is what you are.

source: just trust me bro

nobody did that. I literally shared a very real anecdote that in my experience, when *I* said retard, it was always rednecks in AA meetings. you took offense to my experiencing something you didn't to the point of telling me to kill myself. yeah, I think it's pretty fucking clear who the badguy is here, right? like, who the ACTUAL retard is? but keep up your posturing to shield your fragile emotional state.

and who said maga. I literally just said "conservative." which maga actually aren't.

The English one is better.
Barret was being a retard. and it's normal for friends to call each other retarded.
Even scott pilgrim did it.. and hipsters love that movie.
youtu.be/Gk2It_Pzo5I?feature=shared&t=105

7R really ruined the fuck out of all the characters.
the real Tifa is a lot stronger and more confident & assertive, instead of being a whiny melodramatic cunt.
When she's playful she's playful in a sassy way, not a "Tee hee anime girl" way like with 7Rs tranny cringe writing.

Barret was a goofy lovable hothead, more like mr T. In 7R they portray him as too intelligent and serious.
the humor is completely lost. When he gets angry instead of him being a silly hot head he's portrayed with righteous intensity. it's fucking horrible.

worrying about not seeing his adopted daughter is being retarded

You mean saying he's going to die from simply jogging up steps.
You're even more of a retard than barret.

I don't think retarded people are retarded, therefore I'm allowed to use the word retarded at will.

It's not possible to be offended for someone else (sorry, attention seeking white women), so the only people who can get mad about that are retards.

are they ascended

english nigger gymnastics

although i'd like to see the actual original 日本語 instead of something that may or may not be a translation

I just know Rebirth lost me with Red XIII dancing like Michael Jackson. That's about where I couldn't pretend what I was looking at was anything but completely embarrassing.

the worst thing thing they did with red was

oh he's younger than you assumed you see..

so he needs generic faggot anime voice number 1

yeah see his voice changed because uhhhhhhh.... reasons..

it's his "real voice" cause... well basically he's being lying to you and doing a fake voice for you, NPCs, Hojo, even himself when he's alone.... you see...

even though that makes no fucking sense because in later entries in the timeline like advent children he's only ever had the one voice and he's meant to sound like that because he's based on Scar and that's how Scar talks.

They existed, but we knew they were mentally ill.
youtube.com/watch?v=sFBOQzSk14c

Reminder that in Batman Begins, he does the Batman voice alone for Alfred when he gets poisoned.

the real Tifa is a lot stronger and more confident & assertive, instead of being a whiny melodramatic cunt.

you stupid fucking niggers have been claiming tifa has always being insecure and thats what made her so endearing and diifferent to aerith
none of you know anything about this characters, shut the fuck up embarrassing fucktard

>even though that makes no fucking sense because in later entries in the timeline like advent children he's only ever had the one voice

You mean years after the ending of ff7 og?
are you retarded by any chance?

yet to play the orig

not many years at all faggot. cloud and the others barely aged.
red 13s lifespan is hundreds of years you retarded nigger.

Just admit nomura and the other writers are moronic hacks.

nice straw man retard.
she's not insecure. she has insecurities but there's way more too her.
She's strong. 7R tranny tifa is weak.
7R tifa whines 24/7, people have made AIs from her voice acting and guess what the AI does? it whines in a bitchy depressed anime voice because that's all that nu-Tifas VA does.
the only exception is when she acts like an infant and does the same "teehee I'm an anime girl" thing that Aerith does.

Her 'personality' and voice acting is fucking garbage.

The thing that Anon Babble struggles to understand is that a translation is ALWAYS the translators interpretation of the story. Sometimes there's more vague and up to interpretation sometimes less. Sure there are better and worse translations but it is always through someone elseäs lense. Learn Japanese if you want to experience these things first hand.

Rare case of localizer being based. What does she say in the Japanese script?
