#not to bash on localizers

One of my worries for chapter 5 update has been how they would translate Meleanor’s lullaby 🤔 It has such a pivotal part in the story that I really hope they don’t change it drastically 🥲

But then I realized…I have a new fear. What if they change the incantation of Lilia’s UM 😭😭

Like they did with Silver’s and Malleus’s OTL 😔

What if they change Sebek’s??

Lilia UM and the importance of it to part 5 and especially 6….

I don’t know what would be worse, the “night blessing” change or Lilia’s UM 😭🥲

the anan movie Q&As are really interesting to me, so i wanted to attempt my own translations! 🙇‍♂️

[randomthefox]

it only seems "bland" because the fansubs don't tell the whole story

in this specific example he's saying 仕様がない which is basically the equivalent of saying "*sigh* fine”

You say it when you’re grumbling over doing something you don’t want to do, but feel that you have to.

It's the same mood as when he saw Tails crash his plane at the beginning of the game before he had to run into Emerald Coast.

There's nothing bland about that. It demonstrates plenty of personality. Sonic sees his friends silly antics that are getting them into trouble as a burden, but it doesn't even occur to him for a moment that he wouldn't help them. To him the possibility of just leaving them to deal with their own troubles themselves doesn't even exist as a thought in his mind, despite his grumbling.

But people just read "sheesh, I guess I've got no choice" without actually LISTENING to the VOCAL DELIVERY of the voice actor, and conclude that it's "bland."

It's not inaccurate to the words being spoken in japanese, but obviously the intended emotion is not coming across because people are reading it and saying Sonic sounds "bland" or "polite" when Sonic in japanese is ANYTHING but those two things. Sonic is extremely informal which is tantamount to being rude, and he sprinkles in engrish all the time, that is extremely gauche by japanese standards. And usually none of that is properly conveyed in the fansubs, which people read and conclude that japanese Sonic is "more polite than english Sonic" or that he's "less interesting."

I beseech people to LISTEN to Jun'ichi Kanemaru and HEAR the WORDS he is saying with his voice, instead of just locking all of your mental attention on the english words at the bottom 1/3 of the screen. I assure you, you will get a better appreciation for the characters distinct sense of personality that way.

“THE GODS WILL BEAR WITNESS TO OUR PERFORMANCE!”

SEE THE ILLUSTRIOUS WANDERING MINSTREL PERFORM THE BALLAD OF SHINRYU’S DOMAIN LIVE IN PERSON

RELIVE THE STUNNING BATTLE OF ALA MHIGO AND THE CLASH BETWEEN WARRIORS OF LIGHT AND CROWN PRINCE

50 gil per entrant, recording devices and linkpearls will be confiscated

Arashi stared at the hastily scrawled poster in front of her, head in hands. “Really?” she muttered. “Of all the people you could hire as the centrepiece of this festival, he was your choice?”

Arenvald at least had the kindness to look remorseful. “Actually, he came to us when he heard about the project,” he said. “He said he wanted nothing more than to help people remember the tale of their liberation. And their liberator,” he added sheepishly.

As if Arashi needed the reminder. Five years since her confrontation with Zenos at the end of time and space had been host to a great deal of adventures, but her first fateful battle with the crown prince and his captive Primal was as clear to her as it was when she had taken her first steps into the Royal Menagerie. She must have been frowning as the memories played out, for her return to reality was greeted with Arenvald’s worried features.

“I can have alternative arrangements made, if it’s too much for you!” He limped over to put a reassuring hand on Arashi’s shoulder. Arashi tried to ignore the shaking running through his body. Arenvald had regained the use of his legs in the intervening years, but he would never fight again, and walking was still very much an effort of will. Fordola, who had been keeping diplomatically (or disinterestedly) silent until that point, rolled her eyes and strode over to her companion.

“No, you won’t. We spent a small fortune on the rest of this already. Or did you forget the sleepless nights you spent counting out every last coin to balance the books?” Fordola’s cast-iron stare told Arashi that the issue was not negotiable. Many others would have been intimidated by the woman, but Arashi was merely relieved. So many people treated her as some mythical hero who could do no wrong. It was refreshing to remember that Fordola was not one of them.

Still, it wouldn’t do to risk her ire without cause. Particularly not with Arenvald present. The poor man didn’t need more worries. Arashi held up her hands in what she hoped was a concillatory gesture. “Fine, fine. I’ll not argue his presence, or his choice of song. Just so long as I’m not obligated to appear.”

Arvenvald’s face was a picture of relief. “Good! Of course, we’ll not be expecting you to do anything of the sort. This is a celebration of everyone’s efforts to liberate Ala Mhigo, after all. Though if you were to make a guest appearance…” Arenvald trailed off at the flat stare he received. “Or maybe not.” Arenvald allowed Fordola to guide him to one of the nearby chairs, settling heavily on the wooden frame. “I’ll get this properly finalised and drafted for Commander Hext. See you at the fair!”

Arashi smiled and inclined her head. Fordola grunted in response. Then Arashi was out the doors and into the glorious midday heat of Ala Mhigo. Perhaps it would be prudent to drop in and have a private chat with “Commander” Hext, just to make certain that her presence would not be required on stage with the minstrel. Then again, perhaps not. Lyse would never conspire such a thing, but Fareena was visiting and she most certainly would. Particularly since she was most displeased at not being offered a teaching position in Arashi’s fledgling school.

Yes, perhaps it would be best to just let Arenvald alone and enjoy the fruits of his-

“-labour to free the good people of this nation from their cruel oppressors! I give you all, ARASHI WASHI!”

The announcer’s voice boomed into the open air, magically enhanced to spread far and wide so that even those in the very back of the amphitheatre would hear him. It was, unfortunately, a packed crowd.

Arashi didn’t know who had put the idea in the minstrel’s head. It could have been Fareena, nursing a grudge and seeking petty revenge. It could have been Stalwart, who had also been a guest of honour in one of the previous performances. Or it could have been her dear sister, who had front row seats with Lyse, Arenvald and Fordola, the last of which was actually smiling for once.

Arashi, thankfully, was not alone backstage. Beside her was an equally uncomfortable Raubahn, dressed in an exaggerated version of his old war gear. M’naago, on the other hand, looked practically giddy to take her place on stage, dressed in Resistance finery that had clearly been cleaned and polished recently. It turned out she had something of a flair for theatrics when not bound by duty.

Arashi herself was dressed in her old armour, restored for just this occasion. Well, restored in appearance. Careful application of glamour hid the rips and tears from her trip to the end of the universe. It would be enough for the show, and that was all they needed. Arashi turned back to see M’naago swatting Raubahn’s hand away from his helmet, only to turn her attention on her observer. She made an impatient shooing motion, urging Arashi onto the stage. With a resigned sigh, Arashi stepped forward.

Five years on and Arashi still couldn’t handle the cheers. The roar of the crowd drowned out her thudding heart, her hesitant footsteps. Why are you all cheering me? All I did was fight a dragon. It should have been Lyse up on stage, or Alphinaud, or Krile, or Thancred, or anyone else. The people who had risked life and limb to gather the information they needed to assault the palace. The people who had suffered sleepless nights drawing up stratagems and tactics to outwit the Empire. The people who had really made a difference.

But then Arashi caught sight of another familiar face, towards the back of the crowd. A roegadyn woman, covered in scars and looking distinctly uncomfortable to be there. Flowing Lily. Her first student, and deeply uncomfortable among crowds. She never spoke of the reason why, but she always avoided them wherever possible. She was staring into the middle distance, but then their eyes locked and her face split into an impossibly earnest smile. Then she was cheering with the rest of them, her voice carrying clear across the crowd and to the stage.

Arashi took courage from the gesture. If Lily could conquer her fears and doubts, so could she. The Warrior of Light strode forward with a smile, waving to the adoring crowd. If the people needed her to be a hero again for a day, she would play the part as best she could. It was an old mask, but it still fit.
