L gaim 'epilogue' was TL'd recently. I wouldn't consider it 100% 'canon' as it was published for animedia, but if you choose to see it that way, it was written by one of the writers.3 chapters: #1 https://translationmartyzone.blogspot.com/2026/03/good-bye-my-love-heavy-metal-l-gaim.html
>>23785111WOW I never know that an epilogue like this was made at all, I finished L.gaim earlier this year too and honestly this would’ve made for a great closure to the series as a whole, it’s nice to see Daba’s doing well and that leecee did come to visit, even his sister had signs of improvement
>>23785111>I wouldn't consider it 100% 'canon'Everything Tomino writes is canon.
>>23785196maybe Gable was right
Why is it translated "Poseidal"?
>>23785271Because that's her name in katakana >ポセイダル
None of you guys can read what the fuck
>>23785276I thought it was declared "Posaydal" recently.
>>23785291It's not that much different than シャア being char and not Syaa or the 4 differentバジーナ romanizations. It's just up to the person doing the tl whether they want to romanize it a certain way. Same with typing realize and realise. Or color/colour. You can declare a name tsubomi but in other romanization styles and what's accepted on a keyboard is tubomi.
>>23785309>SyaaShaa. I've never seen anyone call him "Syaa".
>>23785291>>23785309Posaydal is the translation used in SRW30 and Y, and the staff working on those has said the names come from the holders of the license, so they're official choices, not personal translations.But this epilogue translation isn't official in the first place.
>>23785316I've seen the SRW30 spelling used from as far back as 2015.Unless this is an edit someone made five years after the fact.
>>23785315>ShaaYou can argue this but there's no h or r in his name its Syaa
>>23785344Nigga are you retarded?
>>23785344There is like a whole SD Gundam joke about Shaa and how it sounds like you are peeing.
>>23785344>>23785357>>23785359iirc there's a romanization method that does it like that, like "Tibi-Usa" was the annoying Scrappy Doo in that comic published by "Kodansya"
>>23785372Tibi-Usa's the one with the coughing fits, right?
>>23785359
>>23785391no that's her cyborg girlfriend
also iirc that's why the little turtle in OG Gamera is "Tibby" it was a mistranslation of chibi as a proper name but the romanization used the style where it's ta ti tu te to instead of ta chi tsu te to
>>23785372Yeah, those are the retarded romanization systems made and preferred by the Japs over the Hepburn one because they supposedly make it easier for them to learn and translate their language into English. Maybe that's why their English literacy skills are so bad despite being a first world country.
>>23785489I wish other languages didn't exist. All they do is prevent me from watching more anime.
>>23785521I too prefer everything dubbed in English
>>23785613If every language was English, dubs wouldn't suck.
>>23785489>nooo why don't they speak english like meee!!!!Shut the fuck up retard.
>Tomino: "It's such a relief to lose bad memories...">Gundam fandom: "Kamille being mindblasted is why Char had no choice but to destroy the Earth! He's the good guy!"
can the mods just delete this thread? apparently no one actually gives a shit about lgaim and would rather fucking talk about gundam or argue semantics in a fan tl
>>23786868There's every thread on this board.
>>23785111I enjoyed it and the original illustrations were cute. Daba being autistic about soil was pretty great too. This board unfortunately has been shit for ages.
>This smell of soil is the scent of humans. The earth itself is the mother of all people.>By letting Olibee, corrupted by the machine, keep smelling it, Daba must be trying to restore her human heart.I fucking hate hippies.
>>23785316>>23785317"Posaydal" is used in the show itself. During the ending cards, they usually write something like "New Character: <Name>". That's how we know the names Olibee, Gablae and Full Flat.
