Lately I’ve gotten quite a few questions about naming in Chinese, so I’m going to make a post about it for my non-Chinese speaking followers. This is a very broad topic, so this post will probably be multiple parts. Names in Chinese are normally two or three characters long, though there are some people with names which are four characters long, like Ouyang Zizhen (欧阳子真), since his surname is two characters. First and foremost, in Chinese, the surname is written before the given name. So using Wei Ying (魏婴) as an example, Wei (魏) is his surname/family name and Ying (婴) is his given name. Most surnames in Chinese are one character long, with the exception of a handful of surnames which are two characters, like Ouyang (欧阳).
Next comes the given name. This is the fun part in my opinion, since in Chinese, names can consist of any mixture of characters, unlike in English where names are easily recognizable as names. To clarify, in English, we all know that Kevin is the name of a male. However, in Chinese, someone can be named Ying (婴), which as a word itself means infant. But in the context of Wei Ying, it is a name. As reference, when naming a newborn, a parent can literally name the child any word they like.
There is also confusion between people with similar sounding names. To clarify, there are four major ‘tones’ in Mandarin. Using Ying as reference again, the tones can be 婴 (yīng), 莹 (yíng), 硬 (yìng), or 影 (yǐng). Note that the tone is always on the vowel and each character can only have one tone. There are a lot more characters with the pronunciation of ying, so I’ll just use these as examples. So as to the confusion with the number of characters named Qing, here’s a short explanation: Wen Qíng (情) uses the character which means affection or emotion. A-Qìng (箐) uses a character which is related to the drawing of a bamboo bow (I’m not too familiar with this particular character, though I’m pretty confident in my dictionary). As you can see, the tones on both the characters are different, so in Mandarin, their names are pronounced differently and have completely different meanings.
Also, just as a little fun fact, the name Ying is actually a very popular name in China, but it is often given to female babies. Examples being 婴 (infant), 樱 (cherry blossom), 英 (brave), and 瑛 (lustrous), all of which have the same flat tone of yīng. So in my opinion, Wei Ying has a feminine name and I bet Jiang Cheng never let him live it down.
I have more to add to this, but I’ll become too delirious if I keep writing, so someone remind me to continue this in the morning.

Madara could impregnate me any day. My legs are constantly open for him.
Listen my dear berry….
SAME!!!
Tumblr media
Madara could bend me over a log and fuck me raw till I’m good a pregnant with his child.
Like he doesn’t even have to ask you to spread your legs, one look at him and your clothes just fly off and your back hits the ground immediately!!!
Getting you pregnant is so easy for him as well since his milky white seed is super potent!!! Oh and there’s a lot of it!!! Expect to be filled, like his cum will be gushing out of you like it does in all those hentais!!! Your pussy is going to be dripping like melted ice cream!!!
Delicious.
Bruises are a thing as well so consider yourself marked. Even if he isn’t trying to hurt you intentionally, it’s going to happen!!!
~ Love Kiwi xoxo

the fact that hashirama commissioned two huge ass statues that are at least 20x the size of the hokage heads and a 100x more detailed in a location no one visits, far away from konoha at the border of fire country, just to memorialise his love fight with madara is wild.
his wife the jinchuriki didn’t get a statue with him. his brother the next hokage didn’t get a statue with him. uchiha “my gift from the divine” madara did.

You totally fucked up the first one. If the mangekyou needs two X chromosomes, how the fuck men have it
Sharingan pseudo-genetics
So tumblr user @asotin got an anon ask speculating on the genetics of the Sharingan and I decided to actually look at this, as someone with biology training. That said, this is a ninja anime, and there’s only so much I can do. Big thank you to asotin for giving me reference information on Sharingan. Another thank you to @dunloth for talking through some of the biology possibilities with me when I hit a wall.
I say pseudo because as we know Kishimoto cannot keep anything in order and there’s so much information that we don’t have that would be useful for more analysis. in this brief analysis I am using man to refer to XY chromosomes and woman to refer to XX chromosomes. This is for purposes of genetic inheritance and illustration - I am in no way suggesting these chromosomes are a requirement to be a man or a woman. they are not. We’ll set this up and say that the regular Sharingan is a dominant trait with first onset around puberty, although there are cases of earlier or later awakening. This is why basically every Uchiha we interact with in the series has a Sharingan. Dominant trait, meaning a Uchiha only needs one allele out of two possible alleles for the Sharingan gene. Here are a few possibilities for the mangekyou Sharingan: Take one: The mangekyou Sharingan is linked to the Sharingan gene and alleles and is a recessive trait in addition. The mangekyou can be activated by a traumatic event, resulting in chemical changes turning on the expression of the associated gene.

“Yo  a ti, Cas” Or how mexican dubbing gripped us tight and raised us from Despair.
Ok. So I promised a big meta about the dubbing thing and so while I don’t have all the answers YET, here’s a bit of perspective on the differences between Despair and The Truth.
First, a little background. I am a former professional dubbing translator. While I worked on anime series from Japanese to Spanish, rather than in live action ones from English to Spanish, the process is not that different. Also, I worked in Mexico, where Supernatural is dubbed, so that’s why I can make the assumptions I make. Finally, my specialization in college was translation from English to Spanish, so I guess I know what the hell I’m talking about.
So let’s start on HOW you translate something for a dub. Back in the day, you got a ton of VHS tapes with the episodes on them with time codes, and, if you were lucky, a shooting script. This is to say, it was not a transcript of the actual words said in the episode, but the script BEFORE the actors, directors, and everyone else had a hand on what was said and changed. And thus, anything adlibbed? Is not going to be in that script which, at least for the anime side of things? Was a nightmare as the script was usually “And here X actor can say whatever they want” and I had to go and listen to the scene ten thousand times. Now a days, you get either a video file or a streaming link, and sometimes, the shooting script. If you get a script, btw, you can also not get a script in the original language. I know that the person who had to translate Sprited Away to Spanish was working off a German script, not the Japanese one. So yeah, some things can be lost in translation there.
THEN you get to translate. BUT you can’t just translate word by word. You have to adapt it so that it will sound like something a person will say, and sometimes, literally is not the way to do it. And in particular, Mexican dubbing has a reputation to uphold as the “Neutral” dub that is send to most Spanish-speaking countries in Latin America, so we can’t use certain words (I don’t have the list at hand, but I remember that I couldn’t use “Llanta” for Tire, and so I had to use “Neumatico”. And no “sweaters” or “hotcakes” or stuff like that), AND we have to match the lips of the original video. Which is like, the worst nightmare ever because of what we call “labiales”, that is to say, the letters where lips close.
I can’t tell you how much we all loved when a character gave a long winded speech with their back to the camera due to those damned closed lip letters.
All this is to say that sometimes, the line could be “We are all in this together for good or bad”, and the translation become something more like “Estamos en esto, por las buenas o las malas” (We’re on this, the good way or the bad way) or “Estamos juntos en las buenas y en las malas” (We’re together in the good and the bad), depending on the translator, dub director, and voice actor.
Depending on the client, that is, the original owner of the series, sometimes they will review the translation once it’s all dubbed and edited. I know that in the Avengers movie, a Disney rep was present on the cabin and forbade any changes from the script, which resulted on a couple of awkward lines in the end result. I don’t know if that’s the case for Supernatural, but I honestly doubt it. Still, translators can’t make huge changes for the dialogue. One couldn’t just ADD a relationship that wasn’t there, no matter what.
(As an aside, due to the very conservative mindset of some tv stations, it’s more common that gay relationships become more ambiguous, by changing “I love you” to “Te quiero” which can be more of a filial love than a romantic one. And well, that one case in Sailor Moon where a gay character was changed into a woman because the dub director honestly thought the character was a woman. But that was in the nineties)
Now, let’s go to how Castiel’s speech was translated.
The original, according to Superwiki, went like this:
Castiel:  You’re the most caring man on Earth. You are the most selfless, loving human being I will ever know. You know, ever since we met, ever since I pulled you out of Hell, knowing you has changed me. Because you cared, I cared. I cared about you. I cared about Sam. I cared about Jack. I cared about the whole world because of you. You changed me, Dean.
Dean: Why does this sound like a goodbye? Castiel: Because it is. I love you. Dean: Don’t do this, Cas. Cas.
And the translation, as it was aired, went like this (And people, you have no idea the war flashbacks transcribing this gave me, so I hope you appreciate it):
Castiel: Eres el hombre mas amoroso sobre la Tierra. Un hombre sin egoismo; el hombre mas generoso que haya visto, y que jamas vere. Sabes que desde que nos conocimos y desde que te saque del infierno, el conocerte me ha cambiado. Porque a ti te importa. Y a mi me importa. Me importas tu. Y me importa Sam, me importa Jack, me importa todo el mundo. Y fue por ti. Tu me cambiaste, Dean.
Dean: Porque suena esto a despedida?
Castiel: Porque asi fue. Te amo.
Dean: Yo a ti, Cas. (The empty appears and Billie opens the door) Cas…
Castiel: Adios Dean
Dean: No!
Ok. So… At first glance, they’re pretty much the same until we get to the I love you. BUT let’s dissect it a little bit.
Cas begins with a “Eres el hombre mas amoroso sobre la Tierra” which is not how I would’ve translated “The most caring man on Earth” since “caring” is more like “Cariñoso” rather than “amoroso” which would be “loving”, and yes, there’s a difference. Plus, “el hombre mas amoroso” sounds a bit clunky, so Personally, I’d have gone with “Eres el hombre mas cariñoso en la Tierra”, that would’ve given us more time for the rest of the speech, but I wonder if the translator choice for Amoroso instead was more due to the fact that “amor” (love) is more clearly romantic than “care” (cariño, in a sense, more on this later) and so it foreshadows the end.
Again, with the literal clunkyness we have “Un hombre sin egoismo” (A man without egoism) which sounds weird no matter what language you speak, and it should’ve been “Un hombre dadivoso” (A giving man) or “un hombre desinteresado” (a selfless man) although the second could be mis-construed as “a man without interests” so “dadivoso” would’ve better. But the more puzzling is that the Spanish separates the selfless man from the next, which is REALLY confusing as the English is “the most loving man”, which would be “el hombre mas amoroso” making it quite redundant, so the Spanish changes it to “the most generous man”, “el hombre mas generoso”. To add to this, Cas continues with “that I have seen and I will ever see” instead of “That I know”, because it’s far more poetic. And loving.
So yeah, Mexican Cas is basically saying that Dean Winchester is made of love and puppies.
Ahem.
The next part “You know, ever since I pulled you out of hell, you’ve changed me” is more or less word for word, and the only thing that changes is that the English sounds more like a question and the Spanish one is an affirmation. YOU KNOW that ever since I pulled you out of hell, you changed me.” Little verb tense play, that doesn’t change much except Cas’s resolution to say what he has to say.
And then we get to the part that made me squeal out loud. Because we go from
“Because you cared, I cared. I cared about you. I cared about Sam. I cared about Jack. I cared about the whole world because of you”
To
“Porque a ti te importa. Y a mi me importa. Me importas tu. Y me importa Sam, me importa Jack, me importa todo el mundo.” Which at first glance is the same, but NOPE.
First change: The original is in past tense “I cared”. Spanish version is in present tense: “I care”.
Which is a little non important thing except when you remember that simple present means “immutable absolute truth that won’t change with time”
Second, the choice of word for care.
I mentioned before that Care can be Cariño, as in filial, non romantic love (Or romantic love pet name, as it can also be Darling. It’s one of THOSE words). Other translations for care include “cuidado” (as in attention, concern, keeping, and worry), and of course “interesarse” (Which also can be care), “preocuparse” (care, bother, trouble, mind, fuss), and yes, “importar” but “importar” ONLY translates to English as a verb as “import”, “matter” “amount to” and notice how none of those words include “love”.
Mexican Cas is not saying “you love the world, and so I do”. Mexican Cas is saying “The world matters to you, and thus it matters to me, but my feelings for the World (and Sam, and Jack) are not in the same league as my feelings for you.”
And then Dean asks “Why does this sound like a Goodbye”, just like in English, in present tense…
And Mexican Cas replies in PAST tense. “Porque asi fue”. And THIS is important because it means that everything he said before WAS the goodbye, and not what comes next. All the rest? Is in the past. “Because it was”. Not “Because it IS”. And the next part? Is their future.
I love you.
Te amo.
Simple present. No ambiguity like “te quiero”. Spanish Te amo is for romantic love. Not brotherly, not family, not bro-mantic. ROMANTIC.
It’s like “I’m IN love with you” (Although that’d be “Estoy enamorado de ti” and I doubt that would’ve fit in the time Misha spoke)
And of course, the answer. “Yo a ti, Cas”. Not “And I, you” as I’ve seen it before (And I also thought it was, until transcribing the scene) but a simple “I, you, Cas.” Which ok, pretty cave-speak, but the meaning is pretty clear. Dean Winchester loves his gay angel.
It is also telling that the empty doesn’t appear until AFTER Dean confessed, so no, Mexican Cas is not “happy with the saying”, he had to get to the “happy with the having”.
And when Billy appears, it does seem as if he wants to say something more, but Cas is a love-sick selfsacrificing dumbass and so we all get our hearts broken.
I did get in contact with Dean Winchester’s mexican voice actor, and am waiting for answers to a small interview I did with him which includes the question “did that And I you, Cas” was in the script, and am trying to contact Castiel’s mexican voice actor. So I will be updating you on that. But I hope this clears up some of the questions about how Mexican dubbing made Destiel Canon :D
