i miss the era of internet where all we got were anime fansubs made by people who had the time to do what they enjoyed

#translations of everything have started to suck more and more each passing year. everything is rushed out so quick theres no time to #localize literally anything #this is specifically the OFFICIAL dunmeshi anime subtitles saying theres not going to b a duck with an onion or something #ok. that wouldnt have even needed localization. you just didnt translate the fucking thing. you cannot take a saying and directly translate #all the words in it and expect people to get it #also theres a culture of ppl who know a language being like 'uhm. why did you translate it like that when it literally means xyz' #like yeah sure i'm sure translating everything directly ignoring the original prose and flow and meaning is going to be great #yakuza is the only game series i trust to b translated properly tbh. bc of the safe sects joke. #i wish ppl hiring translators a very pay them more and give them more time to work #is this rant even coherent. after ages i managed to fall asleep around 4 am and sleep a whopping 2 hours before waking up #and then i tried to go back to sleep bc i am so incredibly tired but then the clock hit 8 am (i have one of those clocks that chimes every #hour) and i just gave up and decided i need to write down what ive been thinking about for #the past half an hour #though i feel this is missing over half the context i thought of but idk bc im so very tired gdhwbfks
