And that's not to say nobody should retranslate different works, or that multiple translations aren't valuable, or that a literal translation doesn't serve a utilitarian purpose, but the idea that localization changes are bad or damaging is pretty much at odds with a long history of evidence to the contrary.Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr's Journey is available now!

First time 3DS owners, make sure to check out our FAQ and Wiki It's just how it works, and has always worked, and will continue to work. Localization is crucial and valuable and part of translation. Do I really have to explain Shakespeare's plays? Good luck even finding a definitive version of any one even in English, let alone German or Italian. He includes a forward that explains the importance of intent over literal verbiage and then basically proves it in his edition.

The trump thing is just that taken to its logical extreme and is probably helped by the overlap between these people and 4chan which tends to encourage chaos and anarchy, while being founded as essentially a free forum for JP culture otaku. Just standard selfishness and not caring about anyone other than yourself. These mindsets then magnify if they're reinforced strongly by a community of likeminded people. Being insular, thinking mainly of your own interests and unconcerned about everyone else tends to be correlated to conservative political opinions. Anime (especially in recent times) doubles down on appealing to these people, who are united by their relatively insular nature. People who like anime and that kind of thing often tend to live in their own little bubble and interact separately from everyone else because of this. Generalizing here to paint a picture of why this happens.Īnime is a niche thing. ![]()
