Is this a good translation?
>>
>>729262514
the only niggas that would touch this game with a ten foot pole are weebs so yeah
>>
it's an improvement, that's what it is
>>
>>729262514
It's a neko (tl note: neko means cat) which is a necromancer. If you remove the necro- from necromancer, and then affix it the neko (which means cat in japanese), you've got "nekomancer". This is a pun that weds both English and Japanese into a whole that means more than both language.
>>
>>729262514
That's literally what the text says, it's a perfect translation with no localization needed.
>>
It should've been necromeowncer
>>
>>729262514
No, I would accept "meowcromancer" though. "Neko" isn't an english word
>>

You're a faggot.

"meow of cromancy" if we really wanted to be both English and accurate to the original. Maybe the cromancer of meowness? The meowth of the cromance?
>>
>>729262897
>meowcromancer
Shitty localization. Necromeowncer.
>>
>>729262514
maybe
Is nekonomancer something important plot or setting wise?
>>
>>729262897
>"Neko" isn't an english word
meowcro isn't an english word either

"Its NYANNESS: MEOWTH, THE CAT MANCER OF CROMANCY, THE CROMANCER CATNYAN"
>>
>>729262897
'Neko' means cat, meow would be something to translate from 'nya' which is the Japanese meow sound.

So if you really wanted "cat" in the name, then you'd need something like 'necromancat' (this also works doubly well because it's a man-cat of sorts). The main joke doesn't work in English because it's a pun on the "neko" part in the Japanese spelling of necromancer, "nekoromansaa"
>>
>>729262897
necro isn't an english word either you dumbass
glad you aren't in charge of translating anything
>>729263145
that is nothing more than butchery
>>
>>729263383
>necromancat' (this also works doubly well
Works doubly shit more like.

dekinaichama...

None of you fags get that necromancer reads nekuromansaa so it sounds closer as nekonomansaa. Just taking the R sound out probably does work better in English but it becomes weird because neko isn't English anyways but frankly that is some TL note: sensei means teacher kind of shit anyways at this point.
>>
>>729263519
It all depends on whether that nigger's skill set is undead or cat based. If it's undead, your solution works. If it's cats, then it's retarded.
>>
>>729262897
just go "meow mage" bro.
>>
>>729262514
Imho there wasn't any intent from the devs when coming up with this name than making a shitty dad pun so you can call it whatever you want in English as long as it's a pun involving cat and mage vocabulary.
>>
>>729262514
Yes
