in japan he is called boss big because of their silly grammar
Biggest wet fart of a finale for the series
>>223463628Syntax
this is the low grammars of nihonjin
>>223463628No, he is ビッグ・ボス Biggu Bosu
He's actually 大きい親分. Big Boss is because the translation wanted to maintain the alliteration.
>>223464848Lol no 親分 is only used in the yakuza
>>223464916Kojima wanted you to know he's a bad person by using criminal terminology. This was before he was rehabilitated in MGS3, which is also when Kojima switched his Japanese name to Boss Big because his westaboo phase took off and he thought it sounded better.It's not even the only time he's done it, Drebin's code number is YA-KU-ZA.
>>223464957I've never heard about any of this and think you might be mistaken or lying. He's always been Big Boss in Japan, I can't find anything about his name being switched around or Kojima calling him 親分... 大きい親分 is also awkward Japanese and we wouldn't say it like that. In terms of 大きい it sounds like physical size. 大親分 makes more sense.
>>223465064i think he's fucking with you anon
>>223465294I don't understand this thread in the first place. I guess it's funny? I don't understand the joke
>>223465588The joke is that OP is pretending Boss is his family name, so in Japanese name order he would be Boss BigThat's the joke (and yes, western names aren't treated like that in Japanese but that's besides the point)
>>223465683He said grammar. I don't think Japanese name order is like grammar but I get it now thanks
>>223465760Specifically it's syntax but people will just use grammar to refer to anything that isn't spelling, pronunciation, or vocab
why you sold
>>223466792the man who redeemed the world
>>223467007Big Saar....
>>223465064It could be autism, but I always imagine a physically bigger and complex sprite graphic whenever someone calls an enemy 'big boss'. You know how a regular boss at the end of a video game stage is just an upscaled mob, but a big boss takes at least half the screen.
>>223467984In Japanese that kind of boss Is usually called ラスボス, rasu bosu, based on "last boss" in English
>>223468141Aaaah! Makes perfect sense. Thanks for the info.
>>223466792>>223467007>>223467596lol
