Localization isn't all about accuracy to the source material. That's not the primary goal. It should be kept in mind, but localizing is making it accessible to a different locale. That's what it's called, and liberties will always be necessary. I'm having a conversation with someone so pretentious they would complain about how they want what the origin got but in English bevause "if I wanted to buy a western artist's work, I would." Bro, you're buying a translation. That's a western artist's work! I'd rather have a less accurate version that fixes problems or gives bland writing some personality. Some people genuinely want worse work out of arbitrary purity tests. I'm not suggesting to disregard the source, but it's a different person's interpretation. It's going to be different, and if they don’t implement some personality of their own, it's often going to come out without one in translation.

No, no, no. He plead the 6th. His/Her Honor told him that was the wrong one, but Packard would be the judge of that.

Well.... Have a birthday, Packard!

I keep returning to this when realistically I should be checking out Uzumaki instead. As a so bad it's good connoisseur, this is more fascinating than it qualifies as reaching that coverted title. You had a terrible idea to draw in new viewers with an anime that demands context, but within that context is also incoherent, dumb, and barely resembles what fans would want. People complain about the art, yet that's the least of it's issues. Even in continuity with the source, these characters can't seem to land on how they feel about Rick. It's always laced with praise for his reliability, yet by this point in the show..... they all fucking hate Rick. It doesn't work independently, and it doesn't work as a bigger whole. At this point, I'm only watching to see the exponential build up of failures, and frankly, I don't know if I can manage when the show manages to be dangerously boring despite all the intriguing peculiarities.

“We’re singing from the same song sheet. She helped pass all the laws. She was a major player in everything we’ve done.” MD: That sounds like rage. -

If MD gave a shit about antisemitism, she wouldn't be so eager to cry it for cynical, political purposes. -
