@@Nachtelfin0des0Todes I find it weird how girls use that word when talking about female friends. Men don't call their male friends boyfriends. At least none that I've seen.
To be fair this would be something that's really hard to translate to English, but really Funimation couldn't think up anything better than "girlfriend" ?
I actually liked it. Coming from Country Girl Hanamaru it takes on an interesting means for her character; they way she's suddenly using it at every opportunity sounds like it's a new "future" word she's just discovered and has to try out all the time.
Hard to translate this stuff unless you pull a persona 4, but the ending was weird. The scene where Dia fantasizes was okay though. You's line made me laugh.
@@feedthedevilscats9027 But that's what i mean mate. In every english dub ever made honorifics will sound weird because the english language doesn't have them. The characters don't sound like characters anymore they sound like nerds who think it's cool using foreign dialect in their everyday speak.
To be honest, this was one of those episodes that just wouldn't have translated well in the dub. Since the episode is centered around Japanese honorifics it would hardly make any sense in English, but they still tried anyway.And it was my waifu's episode so I love the episode with either language!
"sweetie" who calls their friend that??? the thing is, what I really loved about this episode was how effective it was, with the -san and -chan suffix. but with the "girlfriend" it's kinda like they made it more childish. I mean, what else could they do but...
I grew up with my mom throwing around the word "girlfriend" whenever talking about her friends so for the most part it didn't feel TOO weird to me. That "sweetie" though? That hit me.
It is a hard thing to do I guess, but even the dub of the original Love Live had the girls call their upper classmen “Senpai” so they could get the episode out of the way Ah well, it’s a bit cringey, but I might binge watch the dub on some alcohol when it’s finished airing
School Idol Project's dub didn't keep any of the "-san" or "-chan" honorifics either (the only Japanese phrases they kept were senpai, Nicochi and Kayo-chin).
I know that K-On didn't even try to get around it. Mio-Chan, Yui Senpai, etc. At first it's odd, but considering how tied it is to Japanese culture there was nothing really they could do. I think if they had to explain it like this, though, there would be issues. Idk.
This translation was so good like, I was expecting so much awkwardness and cringe but I had just as much fun as with the original dub, they really nailed the feel in my opinion ♪ LET'S GO SWEETIE~ ♪

In Hungarian it makes sense although the whole relationship system in the language is a mess cause we have no specific word for "boyfriend". -if you're a man and you are dating with a woman we call her "girlfriend" -if you're a man and you have a female friend we call her "friend" -if you're a man and you have a male friend "friend" -if you're a gay man and you have a boyfriend "friend" -if you're a woman and you're dating with a man "friend" -if you're a woman and you have a male friend "friend" -IF YOU'RE A WOMAN AND HAVE A FEMALE FRIEND "GIRLFRIEND" -IF YOU'RE A LESBIAN WOMAN AND HAVE A GIRLFRIEND "GIRLFRIEND" It causes mass confusion in everyday life.

Rewatching this, I was thinking how perfectly suited the English translation of the -chan desire is, especially if the goal of translation is to keep the spirit of the script alive. In essence, what Dia wanted was what Kanan and Mari had: a heightened sense of camaraderie through the formal communication channel.

By doing so, she was exhibiting "cringe," that is, a desire that is unbecoming of her status in the group. Hence Kanan and Mari's reaction - a wholesome laugh, but a laugh nonetheless. And Chika would be the voice of order in the end, that Dia should recognize her place in the group, and her acceptance of her place is the sign of camaraderie she is looking for. Thus, what the dub needed to do was to keep the "cringe" itself. The cringe felt by the audience when they heard "sweetie," "girlfriend," and "matey," especially as they appear in Dia's imagined scenarios, is a sign that the dub did its job well.
I like how in the dub, each nickname encapsulates that character's interests and personality. It's so cute!!! I might be trash, but I'LL BE TRASH FOR THESE WAIFUS
I usually don't like dubs of cute-like anime's but this was pretty darn good, but I thought they would of dubbed it like they dubbed lucky star using "Chan, San, and Nea(?)-chan," makes me happy that they kept Zura though!
Chan vs san vs girlfriend vs sweety? And again we see how difficult it can be to bring certain aspects of a culture and their language into other languages and cultures - although the struggles of these girls are actually "all-human property". And by involving the Ayase sisters and Mari the authors even lampshades that problem. (The names of the Sailor Warriors are still a textbook example here imho, so the old distributors as it seems were just like "well fuck it, let's craft our own puns and turn Serenity into Serena and 'How dare you??' into Darian" and so on. And I guess they also had to exchange their currency XD Lip sync is yet another problem if the honorifics are "all of the sudden" missing...)
The solution is really simple. Don't dub anything besides pre grade school children cartoons and don't ruin foreign media with garbo localization. Translate it faithfully. If someone is too simple minded or xenophobic to skip something because there's no dumbed down dub available - it's better to have them skip it than ruining ot for everyone.
@@supertransistor8762 My point is: there are loads of great dubs out there, and there have been for years. I specifically said 20 years, because that's when the dub of Cowboy Bebop came out, and that was really the show that truly broke the trend of awful dubs.

If you are familiar with Japanese honorifics, her fantasy isn't gay at all. The dubbed version, on the other hand, does seem kinda gay-ish xD
