For the lady-loving audience here, do note the HorribleSubs version is censored. So unless you’re watching this show for the ladies’ smiles, you may want to factor that into your decision.

Translation Party House Rules:

Spoiler:
1. Translation Parties are intended to help you make the best subtitle choice for a given anime. Choose which line(s) you liked best by selecting them with the checkbox.

2. I split the Party into two parts — Essential and Extended. Assuming you want to get this shit over with quickly, just go with the Essential choices. I picked these to be the most representative lines in the releases. But if you’re one of those people who want more comparisons to help you come to a decision, go with the Essential choices and the Extended ones.

3. If you didn’t like any of the lines, choose the “N/A” option. The results for “N/A” won’t be automatically tabulated, so you’ll have to do the math in your head. Have my gomens and nasais.

4. A “>” indicates that another character has begun speaking. If there are three characters in a line comparison, I will indicate the third with a “>>” and so on for more characters.

5. Group order is randomized for each screenshot, every time you refresh the page. However, the “N/A” option will always appear at the bottom of the screen.

6. Your results will be summed up when you click the “Get your results” button. Feel free to vote in the poll at the end/post in the comments to let others know how you did and to compare your results with them.

7. Party hard.

HorribleSubs :: Oh yeah, something called
“maid cafés” are very popular right now in Japan.
You can find them in any hotel town.
Did you know that?
>Y-yeah…
To tell you the truth, I don’t know
what to think about western-influenced stuff like that…
Personally, I’m really glad that we don’t have
a shop like that in this academy.

Hatsuyuki :: Oh yeah, these things known as maid cafés are very popular in Japan right now.
Every town with a hotel has one these days.
Did you know that?
>Y-Yeah…
To tell you the truth, I’m not sure what to think about stuff of western origin like that.
Personally, I’m really glad there isn’t a shop like that in this academy.

FFF :: By the way, maid cafes are very popular now across the country.
If a town’s got an inn, it’s sure to have a maid cafe too.
Did you know that?
>Well…
I’m not sure if that kind of western influence is such a good thing, though.
I’m kinda glad this academy is still free of that.

HorribleSubs :: It reads “moe”. The keyword to making money.
>”Making money”?
That’s right.
It spells “true” and “shadow” and it reads “true shadow”!
Maid Café, True Shadow!

Hatsuyuki :: This says “moe”. It’s the keyword for making money.
>Making money?
That’s right.
It’s written as “true” and “shadow” and read as “true shadow”!
Maid Café, True Shadow!

FFF :: You read this character as “moe”.
It’s the keyword for making money.
>Making money?
Indeed. You write it as “Shinkage” and read it as “True Shadow”.
And as of today, the True Shadow Maid Cafe is open for business!

Okay seriously how have they never heard of Lehman Brothers :: N/A. They all suck.

 

 

Essential 3.

It’s “Lehman Shock”. You know, named for the Lehman Brothers bankruptcy that fucked a lot of shit up. Rayman has nothing to do with it. (Well okay, maybe a little.)

HorribleSubs :: The Leiman Shock is to blame for everything!
>”Leiman”?
That’s right! The Leiman Shock!
It’s the worldwide financial depression
triggered by the housing loan collapse.
Because of that, the stocks I had been
investing in are now worth nothing!
The pocketbook of this dojo is in really dire straits!

Hatsuyuki :: The Leiman Shock is to blame for everything!
>Leiman?
That’s right! The Leiman Shock!
The worldwide financial crisis, brought about by the collapse of the mortgage market.
Due to that, the stocks I had invested in are now worth nothing!
The dojo’s wallet is in a dire situation.

FFF :: It’s all because of the Reiman shock.
>Rei… man?
Indeed. The Reiman shock.
The financial crisis that broke out after the collapse of the mortgage bubble.
Our military funds were pretty much turned to dust!
Even the dojo’s kitchen fell victim!

HorribleSubs :: Something isn’t right!
They wanted me to distribute fliers in such an isolated place?
That little big-forehead girl must’ve tricked me!

Hatsuyuki :: Something isn’t right!
Why would they want me to hand out fliers in such an isolated place?
That little girl with the giant forehead must’ve tricked me!

Depending on your answer
we’re not going to let you leave without consequences!

HorribleSubs :: What? You brought them here?!
You gave them directions so they could challenge us?! You moron!
She’s beyond useless!
She’s a true troublemaker!
>Oh, I get it! You meant Kanetsugu when you said “troublemaker” earlier!

Hatsuyuki :: What? You brought them here?!

Essential 8.

I didn’t watch season 1, but this seems like one of those generic “overpowered character loses their power at the start of the new adventure and so has to regain it.” Seems like Yagyu’s power is channeling some chick named Jubei — maybe her ancestor?

Hatsuyuki :: Oh no…! Don’t tell me Juubei is gone!
>I didn’t think it was possible, but it really did happen back then…

However, its beauty could arouse the sadistic spirit of Evil over time.
But do not worry! Do not be afraid!
In Great Japan, there are Samurai!
They’re called “Master Samurai”!

Hatsuyuki :: A country of incredible beauty: Great Japan.

Essential 8.

I didn’t watch season 1, but this seems like one of those generic “overpowered character loses their power at the start of the new adventure and so has to regain it.” Seems like Yagyu’s power is channeling some chick named Jubei — maybe her ancestor?
