lofi posted:It's one of the biggest things that puts me off scanlations, how unnatural (even if they're technically accurate) the vast majority of them sound. Kind of a weird axe to grind, like do you never talk with ESL people in the real world or what? Calling it unnatural feels a bit much, it's just a different way of saying something based on how their language works and it still makes sense so who cares. Just picture it as Japanese people talking in English or w/e and bing bang boom it fits.

Dear Mr. Toriyama, Your advice to scream at the top of my lungs for three minutes straight did not, in fact, find me a date.

Appoda posted:What's the Japanese word for weed, anyway? Paato? it's more the word for "cannabis" less slangy (as in it's the title of the japanese wikipedia article about cannabis), but i couldnt fit the word "cannabis" and i wanted the text to be big and impactful, so yeah maybe it's not 100% accurate. sue me

"pot" is probably the most formal slang term for it, and totally the one that an old like Oda would go for if not "cannabis" like I've only heard "pot" from either people born before the 60s or so, or people who don't smoke (lately everyone I know is calling it "flower" because of vapes)

I think there should be a little less of the Not in Education, Employment, or Training comic. The pacing and satisfactory panel layout is helped by a slow and deliberate update schedule. Plus it will give him more time to provide quality translations like, "where does your head hurt the most?"
