If she slips some strange phases, and the translation has no clue how to deal with it, then it's fine to improvise and look for equivalence. But as the screenshots of the lines shown, she is speaking like a normal person, without any of the incomprehensible phrases (which is rare even for her) and they still insert those weab stuffs for pretty much no reason. That's the problem I have with this localization.Originally Posted by Strange_One
She doesn't speak AS polite as Tamamo or AS outdated as Wu, but she has a very clear speech pattern that's distinct from what might be '21st century standard'.
shit BL says
Once and always and nevermore.
Nope. Her speech pattern is textbook proper Japanese of the 21st century with some cute girl tone added to it. That's why I said she is normal.
The tl team probably got overconfident with how well received Suzukas JK speech localization was, so when they saw a tiny opportunity to spice things up they went at it with a nuke
RIP
also 20 rolls, no Liz or any other gold servant. Just some CEs. I has a sad.
Where y'all want the asterois and nurse's second job CEs?Twas moreso in response to desuhappens post, just you had replied before I was done. This change is just... Yeah...
BEHOLD! THE SIG OF GOLDEN TRUTH! Pillaged from McJon, Tsukikan et al.
Another unfortunate detail in this thing is that Osakabehime is actually a legit japanese, so this weebspeak is just a complete misfire. Unless shes supposed to be a parody of the ”western chara who speaks in broken japanese” trope which I highly doubt the loc team was going for.
Think this way... she is a Japanese who speaks broken English but her speech is translated to English with broken Japanese.
An easier way to look at it is she is a sulking anime obsessed nerd who doesn’t like outside contact
thats exactly what she is portrayed as.
Except that she didn't even use broken English in all of those cases. Broken English is Tamamo's thing, Okki is forbidden from overstepping the bounds.
She's more of a fujoshi who likes drawing doujinshi. Look closely at her room she doesn't even collect anime merchs or make anime references. She loves Musashi, her penpals and the bishounens, that's all about it. She has quite limited range compare to otakus in general.
She doesn’t collect...so you are saying the Gil hug pillow, painted model set, and several other things referenced or in direct view of the camera are not in fact, evidence of being an otaku anime lover?
EDIT: the racks of manga I see everywhere and the open YouTube channel displaying what appears to be an open and active anime playlist does not, certainly, in anyway lend credence to the idea she is an anime nerd either, yes.
Hmmm... So something like just sprinkling the occasional "tee-hee" or similar would work?
Nope. She only cares about Fate stuffs such as figures of her penpals, the Fate bishounens like the knights, AUO...et, the Fate idols and Musashi (they went way back in their myth). Hell, her phone is running freaking FGO. She is a Fate otaku, not an anime otaku.

Yep. But don't do it so often cuz that overlaps with Tamamo.
Does she like vagabond old man musashi (kino) or boob musashi (pleb)?
In the myth she likes dirty hobo Musashi who smells so bad cuz he never took a bath in his entire life, she thought he's a cute boi. In Fate she did met him but she is also fine with boob Musashi now for the yuri ship.
I have no attachment to her so I'm just enjoying the discourse
>Japanese monster
>but speak like a weeb
Spoiler:
Wandering on internet
I mean it sucks but NA players don’t really give a shit and just love to meme it up so whatever, trash cans will eat trash.
Expect some ugly T-shirts with these quotes in the future.
How did they manage to fuck up Eli Eli's nickname?
Krypton needs her.
I’m actually disappoint that they didn’t insert obnoxious TL notes to explain the weebspeak jokes
This one I understand but RIP Fuya-chan
