Don't you think it's a bit too much for an isekai to be a streamer super fan of the person that they themselves reincarnated in their world?

Thing is that with technical books, manuals, and legal documents the price of failure is also considerably higher. Sure you don't have to deal with people on twitter complaining that you didn't leave in honorifics, but if you make a mistake you can open yourself up to legal action. Though that depends on the employment of the translator, if one works for Honda translating a car owner's manual there is no legal issue for the translator themself, but if one is a freelance translator working with lawyers on international contracts there will be some liability.

They all have somewhat different passionate opinions though.
Also, having to follow a style guide again takes time.
When you see:
>桜さんのことが好きなんです!
Your first instinct might be
>I love you you see!
But then you remember the style guide mandates
>I love you, Sakura-San!
Which takes time, and isn't something you type out on instinct from that sentence.

>>267817288
Yeah, especially with legal texts and translations I assume that the translator either has an understanding of the law or works together with someone who does. Responsibility commands money.

Oh absolutely, but outright translation errors are something you can try and guard against. Translation choices on the other hand are more nebulous and someone is always going to be mad that you didn't translate their favourite michael joudan exactly the same way the pinoy scanlator did.

Himawari have a potential to become hokage, plot twist.

The top Chinese anime (Link Click, Biao Ren etc.) are already as good as the average seasonal anime. Anime gachas like Genshin and Star Rail also regularly release high quality animated shorts.
At the current rate, Chinese animation might be a serious competitor for Japan in a few more years.

True, short term faggots are the bane of nations from basically every perspective
For the sake of profit they remove all the glue that holds a nation together from almost every perspective.
Long term economic stability, racial stability, religious stability, and internal trust that a nation needs to live doesn't matter to them as long as they make even a slight bit from the chaos.
It isn't too late for some nations to save themselves though as long as they pursue policies that provide greater self sufficiency and stability, but that would require them to ignore a lot of dumb modern morality and short term profit incentive from indulging in the excesses of the global market.

Serie exists in Frieren. The big thing in that is how rapidly magic advances though. Frieren's Zoltraak spell was not a century ago seen as the greatest instant kill offence magic, basically a one hit disintegration kill shot (and it was), and human mages immediately knuckled down and create so much better defence magic that the legendary Zoltraak is no more than ordinary offensive magic that mages can spam by the time its creator wakes back up. That's within a mere century. MT's world doesn't seem to have advanced much in terms of magic at all before Rudy shows up and builds his Gundam.

If it's true what the anon in the other thread said about people only having to recite words to use magic then MT's implementation of magic in the setting is really poorly thought out.

There's a shitload of manga that are critical of their society. It's just their style of criticism isn't looking straight at the viewer and saying "I think this is bad because ___". It's not socially acceptable to make a big stink about the state of things or to challenge authority, so their criticism tends to be more subtle by necessity.

>>267813535
I'm sure some do, but it's magical thinking to believe that the average person doesn't have their issues with how things are run. This is true of basically any society. Try telling a group of people how great they have it and they'll happily point out all the ways things suck for them in ways it doesn't suck for you.

Definitely Shizuka. She's been my favorite girl ever since I reread the entire manga back in 2018. For whatever reason it shifted to Shizuka from Saeko during that second read.

Now, you can argue that I have a funny way of showing love, given that I put her through a horrifying rape attempt that left her with personality-altering PTSD, resulting in her transforming into a murderous bitch. But she's the star of the show, so from that perspective, I think I treated her pretty well.

That said, I'd prefer to marry Shizuka with her canon personality. She'd be a better mother.

Oh you just know the author would pull off some bullshit excuse for her to be forgiven
"waah you weren't paying attention to me!" and the japanese will eat that up. They LOVE when their heroine is as pathetic and pitiful as possible.

90% of romcom heroines are like that. They even have a bunch of tropes where the heroine goes "No! i don't deserve to be happy! i give up on my love, so you can be happy instead, [rival]!". And other dumb tropes that makes them cry a lot so the MC can act as their knight in shining armor
it's so stupid, and it would 100% happen to Rei
