As I said before, Crunchyroll's Brazilian Portuguese subs for this show really seem to me like they were translated from English (lots of stiffness and awkward phrasing I usually don't find in a first-hand translation from Japanese), which would mean there are decent English sub scripts that Crunchyroll simply isn't being allowed to use in its streams. |

From the latest messages I guess the subs problem hasn't been fixed yet?

The subs are definitely still kind of 'loose' translations, and they never seem to translate on-screen signs, images of phones, etc, only the script itself. Is there any expectation it will be 'fixed', though? We're several episodes in now; I just figured this is what we're getting. |

Oh, it's fixed, if you watch the English dub. Top is from the EN dub. Bottom is from the JP dub. Notice the subtitles are off. All the episode titles and locales have been edited into English, while everything else is subtitled on the EN dub, the JP dub is left as is.

For untranslated text I just use the Android Google Translate app, it's pretty good at reading things straight from the screen. Of course it's MTL, but better than nothing.

I don't watch anime (or any other media) dubbed though, only in their original language. ^^'

It sure seems like it. How often does Crunchyroll go back and fix broken or erroneous stuff like this? They did it for The Yuzuki Family's Four Sons when the bad subtitles kicked up a big thing, but with this situation going so long for DDDDDDDD, I'm assuming they're just stuck with what they've got. On a similar note, I was watching The Tower of Druaga recently and they have a DVD bonus episode in place of the second season's actual first episode, mislabeled with its title. I'm actually glad that bonus episode is there because it's great, but it's absurd to be missing an entire episode like that, and it's been that way since it was readded to the service it seems. I suppose I wonder if their hands are completely tied in these situations and they have to use what they're given, or if they could do something but...don't, for whatever reason. |
