Translation Party: [CoalGuys vs. Commie vs. Eveyuu vs. Hatsuyuki vs. HorribleSubs vs. rori] Hentai Ouji to Warawanai Neko (Episode 01)

Asking you to choose the best subs for this party would be a bit unfair. So instead, try to pick the least terrible ones.

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.

rori :: The rest of you must find an unconditional love and respect for track as he has—
>Captain! I’m afraid you’re making a big mistake!
Oh?
>Um, well, you see…
>There’s something more important to me than track,
>and it’s kind of like what I live for, so…
>{\i1}And that something is swimsuits.

Eveyuu :: The rest of you had better learn from him and his love for the Track Club.
>Wh-Whoa, hold it! I think you’ve misunderstood!
Oh?
>Well, uh, there are things I love more than track, or even life…
>{\i1}However I pitch it, it’s still about swimsuits!

Hatsuyuki :: Listen up, people.
You should take a leaf out of his book, and learn to love athletics.
>President, I think you’re misunderstanding something–
Oh?
>Basically, I have something that is more important to me than athletics…
>{\i1}I say again: swimsuits.

HorribleSubs :: I would like you to follow his example in loving this club.
>C-Captain! I think there might be a huge misunderstanding…
Really?
>U-Um… By that, I mean that I have something I love more than the track club…
>Like life and every man’s dream…
>{\i1}As I keep saying, I’m talking about bathing suits.

CoalGuys :: You should all learn from him so that someday you can love and honor track just as he does.
>President, I think you’re making a really big mistake here.
>The thing is, there’s something more important than running in my life
>and if we’re talking about my longer-term plans…
>{\i1}It’s swimsuits, of course.

Commie :: I would like everyone to follow his example in loving this club.
>C-Captain! I think there might be a huge misunderstanding.
Really?
>U-Um… By that, I mean that I have something I love more than the track club…

rori :: It just means that hottie thinks you’ve got a future ahead of you.
It’s a good thing!
>That’s not the problem here.
>I’ve always made excuses for stuff off the top of my head.
Oh?
A sort of PR versus openness thing?

Eveyuu :: Well, it ain’t all bad. She’s pretty hot.
>You don’t get it.
>I’ve always had a habit of saying things I don’t really mean.
So you’re a guy who can’t be honest with himself, huh?

Hatsuyuki :: Being recognized by such a beauty, lucky you.
>That’s not the point.
>My words never seem to come out the way I want them to.
Oh, struggling with your instincts, are you?

HorribleSubs :: There’s nothing wrong with being appreciated
by someone that beautiful, though.
>That’s not the issue here.
>I always end up hiding how I really feel before it leaves my mouth.
You mean your facade and how you really feel.

CoalGuys :: C’mon, you’ll be surrounded by a bunch of hotties, so shouldn’t you be happy?
>That’s not the problem.
>I’ve always had this bad habit of never letting out my actual thoughts.
This is what they call true feelings and facades.

Commie :: There’s nothing wrong with being appreciated
by someone that beautiful, though.
>That’s not the issue here.
>I always end up hiding how I really
>feel before it leaves my mouth.
You mean that façade of yours?

rori :: If we slowly, carefully, and tenderly talk things over, I’m sure you’ll understand!
>No! Not a chance!
>You need to be in love to do that!
I don’t think we’re on the same page here!

Eveyuu :: Let’s stop and talk about this. I’ll make you feel better.
>No, go away! You need to be in love to do those things!
You need love to do {\i1}what{\i0} things?!

Hatsuyuki :: Just calm down. Let’s have a nice, calm chat, and then you’ll understand.
>No way! Not when there’s no love involved in it!
What are you talking about?

HorribleSubs :: If you sit down with me and talk this out slowly,
carefully and in detail, you’ll understand!
>No! No!
>I won’t do anything like that if love isn’t involved!
What do you mean by “anything like that”?!

CoalGuys :: You’ll definitely understand once we settle down and talk!
>I don’t want to! Things like that should only come with love!
Things like what?!

Commie :: If we can just calm down and discuss this, you’ll understand!
>Absolutely not!
>I won’t do anything like that unless if love is involved!

rori :: I’m not tasty at all.
I’m weak and flat.
There’s nothing underneath.
I was at the bottom of my class for the yearly physical check-up.
I’m sure I’ll be tastier in two years, so until then…
I want to stay pure until then!

Eveyuu :: I’m not at all tasty.
I’m thin, I’m flat, and I’m not wearing any underwear.
My measurements are the worst in the entire class.
I’ll taste better in a couple of years, so if you can wait…
I want to remain pure until then!

Hatsuyuki :: I’m not tasty at all.
I’m small, and have no breasts.
I have no flesh on me at all.
I have the lowest body measures in my class.
If you just wait two years, I’m sure I’ll be tastier by then, so…
I want to stay pure until then!

HorribleSubs :: I’m not appealing at all.
I’m skinny, and flat, and clumsy…
And I’m the puniest in my class for body measurements.
If you wait a couple of years, I’ll probably be more appealing, so…
I wanted to stay clean until then…

CoalGuys :: I’m not tasty at all.
I’m thin and flat-chested. I don’t even need a bra.
The results of my physical were the worse in the class.
If you wait another two years, I’m sure I’ll get more tasty.
I just wanted to remain a virgin until then…

rori :: That’s an heiress for you!
>Azuki Azusa is a natural-born heiress or something.
>She takes class distinctions to the extreme.
>She turns guys down hard.
>Guys with certain tastes call it “Azuki Azusa’s Service Time.”

Eveyuu :: As expected of the princess!
>Azuki Azusa’s one tough princess; she’ll shoot any guy down.
>The way that guy was brutally insulted—those into that sort of thing call it “Reward Time”.

Hatsuyuki :: As expected from the princess!
>She turns down the guys rather harshly, just like a real princess.
>Guys who are into that sort of thing refer to this as ‘service time’.

HorribleSubs :: Nothing less from the young lady!
>It could be because Azuki Azusa grew up as a lady,
>but she’s insanely picky.
>She turns them down mercilessly,
>but some guys seem to be into that,
>and they’ve been calling this “reward time.”

CoalGuys :: What a dignified lady!
>She’s a pretty high class woman, so she’s as discriminating as it gets.
>She treats everyone harshly like that,
>but guys who’re into those kind of things just call this their Prize Time.

Commie :: Nothing less from the young lady!
>It could be because Azuki Azusa was kinda spoiled,

rori :: D-Don’t worry!
I love ’em big,
but some people consider flatness to be a status symbol!
And if you’re flat, you don’t need to buy new bras!
And they’ll never sag!
In fact, there’s nothing there that {\i1}can{\i0} sag!
You’re one lucky girl! Viva, flat chests!

Eveyuu :: I-It’s okay! While I may prefer larger ones, there are plenty of people in the world who think flat is justice!
Besides, you don’t need a bra, and they won’t ever sag!
There’s nothing that can get saggy, after all!
Oh man, you’re so lucky! What a flat chest!

Hatsuyuki :: It’s okay! Personally, I prefer large ones,
but there are people who consider small breasts to be a treasure,
and besides, if you’re that flat, you probably don’t need a bra.
You don’t have to worry about them losing their shape.
It’s more like there’s nothing there to lose!
You’re pretty damn lucky, Miss Flat-Chested!

HorribleSubs :: N-No worries! I definitely prefer bigger ones,
but being flat-chested is a status,
and there are even those who prefer that.
Not to mention, you probably don’t even need bras!
They’ll never droop or anything,
since there’s nothing to droop in the first place!
You’re so lucky, super flat-chest!

CoalGuys :: You don’t have to worry!
Of course I like well-proportioned girls,
but there’re people who think a flat chest is a wonderful status symbol!
Not to mention that if you’re flat, you don’t need to bother with bras!
And they won’t ever sag either, since there’s nothing to sag in the first place!
Isn’t that wonderful, Flatty?

Commie :: N-No worries! While I definitely prefer bustier girls,
being flat-chested is a status, and there are even those who prefer that!
Not to mention, you probably don’t even need bras!
They’ll never sag or anything,
since there’s nothing that’ll sag in the first place!
You’re so lucky, super flat-chest!

rori :: Don’t look at her while she’s dressed like that!
Don’t look!
>What are you mumbling to yourself about?
Why are you wearing {\i1}track shorts{\i0}, Captain?!
What happened to your short tights?!
You’re killing every adolescent’s BDSM fetishism!
Take them off {\i1}now{\i0}!

You brainless fool!

Eveyuu :: Th-That outfit! That outfit’s bad news!
>What the hell are you going on about?
Why are you wearing running shorts, Prez?!
The tights! What happened to the running tights you normally wear?!
You’re killing off the fetishes of adolescence!
Take them off right now! Put the running tights back on!
You ignorant fool!

Hatsuyuki :: Those clothes… This is bad!
>What are you saying?
Why are you wearing shorts, President?
What happened to the tights you usually wear?
You’re ruining a man’s fetishes!
Take those shorts off! Put your tights back on this instant!
You insensitive girl!

HorribleSubs :: That outfit is not good! That outfit is bad!
>What are you babbling about?
Why in the world are you wearing shorts, Captain?!
Where are your leggings? The leggings you wear all the time?!
You want to ruin the binding fetishism of our youth?!
Take those off right now and change into your leggings!
You… thoughtless woman!

CoalGuys :: Don’t dress like that! Anything but that!
>What are you talking about?
Why the shorts, President?!
What happened to your usual tights?
This ruins the binding teen fetishism!
Take those off right away and change into tights!
You’re so inconsiderate!

Commie :: That outfit is not good! That outfit is bad!

rori :: What’s wrong?
>No, it’s just that as soon as she noticed me, she stopped expressing herself openly.
>It was almost unnatural.
So you’re saying she can only PR in front of strangers?

Eveyuu :: What’s wrong?
>That girl…
>Because I was here, she wasn’t able to speak her mind.
>To a peculiar extent.
Wait, so she has a facade too?

Hatsuyuki :: What’s wrong?
>My presence caused her to put up a facade and she totally couldn’t react like she wanted to.
>It was actually quite unnatural.
So you’re saying, she always has a facade up when she’s with people she doesn’t know?

HorribleSubs :: What’s wrong?
>It’s just that she was unable to say what
>she really wanted to say just because I was present.
>It was almost unnatural.
Meaning, in the presence of others, she can only put up a facade.

CoalGuys :: What?
>That means she couldn’t speak her mind because I was here.
>She acted unnaturally.
So she can’t be honest in front of others?

Commie :: What’s wrong?
>It’s just that she was unable to say
>what she really wanted to say just because I was present.

rori :: Even while imprisoned, the Irish author Oscar Wilde, a pervert who I respect, said,
“I don’t regret for a single moment having lived for pleasure.”
Suppose we took a poll of what women’s swimsuit is most attractive.
What style would come out on top?
I ponder eternal questions such as this every day.
Among the myriad varieties of swimsuits,
the racerback is particularly enticing.

Eveyuu :: My favorite perverted author, the Irishman Oscar Wilde, once said this:
“Pleasure is the only thing one should live for. Nothing ages like happiness.”
For example, “Which women’s swimsuit style was number one in that popularity poll I voted on?”
This question has plagued humanity for eons, and plagues my mind every day.
Within the sea of swimsuits, racing variants have the greatest appeal.

Hatsuyuki :: An Irish adult novelist whom I respect, Oscar Wilde, once said:
“I don’t regret for a single moment having lived for pleasure.”
For example, what is the foremost point to consider when rating girls’ swimsuits?
I spend each day worrying about such questions that plague humanity.
Among the vast variety of swimsuits, school swimsuits are especially attractive.

HorribleSubs :: The perverted Irish writer that I admire,
Oscar Wilde, said even while he was in exile,
“I don’t regret for a single moment having lived for pleasure.”
For example, if there were a popularity poll for girls’ bathing suits,
what would be number one?
I am contemplating that eternal human question every day.
But among as many choices as there are stars,
the swimming race bathing suits have a certain magical charm.

CoalGuys :: The deviant Irish writer I so love, Oscar Wilde, once said while imprisoned:
“I don’t regret for a single moment having lived for pleasure.”
Like, if there was a popularity poll about girls’ swimsuits, who’d win?
I keep wondering about this eternal mystery of mankind every day.
There’re as many different swimsuits as stars in the sky,
but the ones the swimmers wear hold the most charm.

Commie :: The perverted Irish writer that I admire,
Oscar Wilde, said even while he was in exile,
“I don’t regret for a single moment having lived for pleasure.”
For example, if there were a popularity poll for girls’ swimsuits,
who would be number one?
I am contemplating that eternal human question every day.

the swimming race swimsuits have a certain magical charm.

rori :: You know the Stony Cat Statue on Lone Cedar Hill?
The Stony Cat.
If you present it an offering,
it will give something you don’t need to someone who {\i0}does{\i1} need it.
I always thought I’d end up dead in a ditch somewhere if I didn’t change.
If there’s anything I didn’t need, it’d be my earthly desires.
So, I offered it a useless body pillow, and what do you know!
Good-bye, earthly desires! My mind’s clear as a sage’s!
Full speed ahead! Next stop, world peace!

Eveyuu :: Have you heard of the stony cat statue on Mount Ipponsugi?
The stony cat.
If you give it an offering, it’ll take what you don’t want and gift it to someone who needs it.
I felt my current lifestyle would turn me into a failure of a human.
I didn’t want my perverted desires any more.
So I offered my useless body pillow as tribute, and what do you know?
Goodbye perverted desires, hello sagely wisdom!
All aboard the world peace train!

Hatsuyuki :: Do you know about the statue of the stony cat on Ipponsugi hill?
The stony cat.
If you make a token offering there,
it will take away something you don’t need and give it to someone who does.
I’d been feeling for a while that I was becoming a worthless human being.
The one thing I don’t need is my desires.
So I presented the body pillow I didn’t need as an offering, and what do you know,
I bade farewell to my desires, and I was totally revitalized!
World peace, full speed ahead!

HorribleSubs :: You know the Stony Cat statue on the hill with the single cedar tree?
The Stony Cat…
If you give it an offering,
it’ll give something you don’t need to someone else who needs it.
At this rate, I felt like I would never be able
to become a decent human being.
The thing I don’t need is, of course, worldly desires.
So I offered my hugging pillow
which was taking up space and then, wouldn’t you know it…
I was freed of my worldly desires and felt completely refreshed.
World peace for the win!

CoalGuys :: You ever heard about the Stony Cat statue on the hill with the lone cedar?
The Stony Cat.
If you give it an offering,
it’ll free you from something you don’t need and give it to someone who needs it more.
I’ve known for a while now that I’ll never become a decent person if I keep living like this.
The thing I want to get rid of most is obviously my lust.
So I offered it a Dutch wife that was just lying collecting dust, and guess what!
All of my lust disappeared like I’d just had a good fap!
I was ready to struggle for world peace!

Commie :: Do you know of the Stone Cat statue on the hill with the single cedar tree?
The Stone Cat…
If you give it an offering,
it’ll give something you don’t need to someone else who needs it.
Back then, I felt like I would never be able to become a decent human being.
The thing I don’t need is, of course, these worldly desires.
So I offered my body pillow, and wouldn’t you know it…
I was freed of my worldly desires and felt completely refreshed.
World peace for the win!

Under their skirts and above! I want to see it all!

I want to get along with girls!

Hatsuyuki :: The thing that I don’t need, would be my facade.
Because of the impression people have of me, I can’t live freely!

The outer and inner sides of their skirts, and everything else!
I want to get along with girls better!

Are words all you have to offer? Even a parrot can speak.
Show me how you feel through your {\i1}actions{\i0}.
I’m not asking you to chauffeur me in a Rolls-Royce and roll out a red carpet at the school gates.
But if I were to call for you, morning or night, would you drop everything and come running?
Are you willing to throw away everything and obey me like a blind sheep?
See? You won’t.

Eveyuu :: Even flamingos have their mating dance, what about you?
Don’t tell me that’s all you’ve got.
>Huh?
Anyone can throw a bunch of words together. Show me your feelings though actions, not essays!
And I don’t want you to drive me around in a Rolls-Royce, or roll out a red carpet for me at school!
For example, if I called, would you be able to come to my side, at any hour?
Would you toss everything aside to be with me and play the role of a foolish butler?
See? You cannot.

Hatsuyuki :: Even flamingos dance when they’re courting a partner.
Is that all you have to offer me?
Words are meaningless. Show me how you feel through your actions!
It’s not like I’m asking for a Rolls-Royce or red carpet treatment.
For example, can you come running whenever I call?
Can you be obedient and sacrifice anything for me, like a humble butler?
You can’t, right?

HorribleSubs :: Even flamingos do a mating dance.
Are you telling me that’s all you have?
>Huh?
Huh?
Even myna birds can say words.
Show me how you feel with your actions!
I’m not asking you to drive me around in a Rolls-Royce
or lay out the red carpet for me in front of the school.
For example, if I were to call for you, would you be
able to come to me immediately, day or night?
Would you be able to sacrifice everything and serve me like a humble butler?
See? I thought not.

CoalGuys :: So what? Even flamingos do courting dances, but you…
Is this really all you’ve got?
>Huh?
Parrots can talk too.

I’m not expecting you to come for me in a Rolls-Royce
or to roll out the red carpet for me in school.
Just things like…
Well, would you rush to me when I called you, be it night or day?
Would you obey me like a good butler and devote everything to me?
Didn’t think so.

Commie :: Even flamingos do a mating dance. Are you telling me that’s all you have?
>Huh?
Huh?
Even mynahs call out.

It’s not like I’m not asking you to drive me around in a Rolls-Royce

And if you’re flat, you don’t need to buy new bras!
And they’ll never sag!
In fact, there’s nothing there that {\i1}can{\i0} sag!
You’re one lucky girl! Viva, flat chests!

Besides, you don’t need a bra, and they won’t ever sag!

Oh man, you’re so lucky! What a flat chest!

but there are people who consider small breasts to be a treasure,
and besides, if you’re that flat, you probably don’t need a bra.
You don’t have to worry about them losing their shape.

You’re pretty damn lucky, Miss Flat-Chested!

Of course I like well-proportioned girls,
but there’re people who think a flat chest is a wonderful status symbol!
Not to mention that if you’re flat, you don’t need to bother with bras!
And they won’t ever sag either, since there’s nothing to sag in the first place!
Isn’t that wonderful, Flatty?

Eveyuu :: What’s wrong?

HorribleSubs :: What’s wrong?

rori :: Even while imprisoned, the Irish author Oscar Wilde, a pervert who I respect, said,
“I don’t regret for a single moment having lived for pleasure.”
Suppose we took a poll of what women’s swimsuit is most attractive.
What style would come out on top?
I ponder eternal questions such as this every day.
Among the myriad varieties of swimsuits,
the racerback is particularly enticing.

Eveyuu :: My favorite perverted author, the Irishman Oscar Wilde, once said this:
“Pleasure is the only thing one should live for. Nothing ages like happiness.”
For example, “Which women’s swimsuit style was number one in that popularity poll I voted on?”
This question has plagued humanity for eons, and plagues my mind every day.
Within the sea of swimsuits, racing variants have the greatest appeal.

Hatsuyuki :: An Irish adult novelist whom I respect, Oscar Wilde, once said:
“I don’t regret for a single moment having lived for pleasure.”
For example, what is the foremost point to consider when rating girls’ swimsuits?
I spend each day worrying about such questions that plague humanity.
Among the vast variety of swimsuits, school swimsuits are especially attractive.

HorribleSubs :: The perverted Irish writer that I admire,
Oscar Wilde, said even while he was in exile,
“I don’t regret for a single moment having lived for pleasure.”
For example, if there were a popularity poll for girls’ bathing suits,
what would be number one?
I am contemplating that eternal human question every day.
But among as many choices as there are stars,
the swimming race bathing suits have a certain magical charm.

CoalGuys :: The deviant Irish writer I so love, Oscar Wilde, once said while imprisoned:
“I don’t regret for a single moment having lived for pleasure.”
Like, if there was a popularity poll about girls’ swimsuits, who’d win?
I keep wondering about this eternal mystery of mankind every day.
There’re as many different swimsuits as stars in the sky,
but the ones the swimmers wear hold the most charm.

Commie :: The perverted Irish writer that I admire,
Oscar Wilde, said even while he was in exile,
“I don’t regret for a single moment having lived for pleasure.”
For example, if there were a popularity poll for girls’ swimsuits,

rori :: You know the Stony Cat Statue on Lone Cedar Hill?
The Stony Cat.
If you present it an offering,
it will give something you don’t need to someone who {\i0}does{\i1} need it.
I always thought I’d end up dead in a ditch somewhere if I didn’t change.
If there’s anything I didn’t need, it’d be my earthly desires.
So, I offered it a useless body pillow, and what do you know!
Good-bye, earthly desires! My mind’s clear as a sage’s!
Full speed ahead! Next stop, world peace!

Eveyuu :: Have you heard of the stony cat statue on Mount Ipponsugi?
The stony cat.
If you give it an offering, it’ll take what you don’t want and gift it to someone who needs it.
I felt my current lifestyle would turn me into a failure of a human.
I didn’t want my perverted desires any more.
So I offered my useless body pillow as tribute, and what do you know?
Goodbye perverted desires, hello sagely wisdom!
All aboard the world peace train!

Hatsuyuki :: Do you know about the statue of the stony cat on Ipponsugi hill?
The stony cat.
If you make a token offering there,
it will take away something you don’t need and give it to someone who does.
I’d been feeling for a while that I was becoming a worthless human being.
The one thing I don’t need is my desires.
So I presented the body pillow I didn’t need as an offering, and what do you know,
I bade farewell to my desires, and I was totally revitalized!
World peace, full speed ahead!

HorribleSubs :: You know the Stony Cat statue on the hill with the single cedar tree?
The Stony Cat…
If you give it an offering,
it’ll give something you don’t need to someone else who needs it.
At this rate, I felt like I would never be able
to become a decent human being.
The thing I don’t need is, of course, worldly desires.
So I offered my hugging pillow
which was taking up space and then, wouldn’t you know it…
I was freed of my worldly desires and felt completely refreshed.
World peace for the win!

CoalGuys :: You ever heard about the Stony Cat statue on the hill with the lone cedar?
The Stony Cat.
If you give it an offering,
it’ll free you from something you don’t need and give it to someone who needs it more.
I’ve known for a while now that I’ll never become a decent person if I keep living like this.
The thing I want to get rid of most is obviously my lust.
So I offered it a Dutch wife that was just lying collecting dust, and guess what!
All of my lust disappeared like I’d just had a good fap!
I was ready to struggle for world peace!

Commie :: Do you know of the Stone Cat statue on the hill with the single cedar tree?
The Stone Cat…
If you give it an offering,
it’ll give something you don’t need to someone else who needs it.
Back then, I felt like I would never be able to become a decent human being.
The thing I don’t need is, of course, these worldly desires.
So I offered my body pillow, and wouldn’t you know it…

I have no idea what rori was thinking when they decided to go with “PR” as their translation, but trying to bend what’s being said to fit your chosen terminology results in terrible English. Commie seems to have sort of okay English, but the CR translation sucks. Hatsuyuki is as shit as always. Eveyuu and Coalguys are probably the least worst choices.

    Goddam. You weren’t exaggerating about the (lack of) quality. Some of those were truly painful to read. Well, considering the staffs involved with this, I’m not really surprised that the TL party results are what they are.

        • I like “tact” better in this scenario. He doesn’t seem to be putting a false version of himself up on display, and he certainly doesn’t seem ashamed of who he is (in fact, he even openly admits a couple times to being a complete pervert). He simply tries to act appropriately, saying the right things; and he feels it’s holding him back from his passion.

          • Experts on Japanese culture, please feel free to jump in and correct me, but the “tatemae” vs “honne” distinction that this episode/series revolves around is indeed a facade/true feelings one. It’s about saying what’s socially appropriate versus what you’re actually thinking, so there is definitely an element of falsehood whenever the two clash.

            “Tact”, while vastly more natural, only expresses part of the full meaning. “Facade” is closer, but less natural for high school boys in casual conversation.

            I personally would be tempted to go with “persona”, which both maps very closely onto “tatemae” (except insofar as a person can have multiple personas for different contexts) and sounds relatively natural in sentences – “I want to get rid of my persona”, “give me back my persona” and so on.

            Reply
              • I assume you mean as in in-game avatar, rather than the religious definition?

                I’m not convinced. “Avatar” is unrelated to the key issue of social appropriateness and deception. My using Lelouch as my avatar may allow you to make guesses regarding my personality, but it doesn’t mean I am presenting myself as male or female, intelligent or stupid, perverted or pure, or anything else, whereas “tatemae” is exclusively about how you present yourself to other people.

                Also, as an ordinary teenage boy, the MC probably uses the Internet and therefore has one or more actual avatars to which such sentences would be assumed to refer by default.

                Reply
            • I see what you’re saying, and you are right about that the whole tatamae/honne thing. Tatamae is the publicly appropriate version of yourself that you present to others. Honne, on the other hand, is your private self, who you are when no one is looking.

              However, I still think “tact” is the best choice, mainly because I place more importance on the “publicly appropriate” part of the idea than the “false self” part, given how collectivist a nation Japan is. True, there’s no 1-to-1 English word that would fit perfectly, but I like tact most for emphasizing the politically correct side of the definition.

              Reply
              • I suppose the way you frame the argument, it has to come down to personal preference. I do like “tact” for being gloriously natural English, a disturbingly rare commodity in fansubs today.

    I’m surprised so many people picked rori. Eveyuu was a clear winner for me (not too surprised). Just to clarify, I’ve never watched this show, from anyone, so this is just the way I like to do my TL Parties: Unbiased.

    Reply
    • Do you think that makes you special? I am never watching this show because it’s one of the many pieces of shit that Japan likes to pass off as quality entertainment.

      Did you choose the group of lines from Eveyuu which had a comma splice? Or perhaps you chose the one where the editor used a noun as a verb (gift)? Eveyuu also violated parallel structure when attempting to use a list. rori’s PR translation was just stupid, but Eveyuu’s lines were consistently worse than rori’s in structure and in the likelihood of appearing in actual speech.

      I just realized that, for one of the groups of lines, I chose another one by accident. I selected CoalGuys instead of rori. Also, I should have chosen N/A during the other time I chose CoalGuys and during one of the times I chose rori, which would effectively bring CoalGuy’s count down to zero and keep rori’s at five.

            • It is worth bearing in mind that the OED is designed to reflect usage rather than dictate it. Thus, “LOL” is in the current OED.

              Just as I would never use “LOL” in a translation (outside the few contexts where it is natural, like online chat scripts), so I would avoid using “gift” as a verb. Even if it is not technically incorrect usage (and when it comes down to it, little is, especially when you consider how absurd the historical origins of grammatical rules like “no split infinitives” are), it is both inelegant and unnecessary, and should be avoided for those reasons at least.

              Reply
              • Really? Nothing about its usage here struck me as odd, and the OED lists examples of “gift” as a verb going back to the 16th century. At the least, I wouldn’t call it new or corrupted usage.

                Reply
                • Gift as a verb is perfectly natural and sound English. However, I would still probably avoid using it if I could, as its usage as a verb has been steadily declining in popularity. I certainly don’t see too many high school students using it as a verb.

                    ‘Gift’ isn’t the word I’d have used there, but ERMAGERD LANGUAGES isn’t why.

                      But who knows, maybe people are using it a lot more often now. I could be wrong.

                • You’d think that with dead people’s obsession with trying to make English more like Latin (I think that’s how the don’t-end-a-sentence-with-a-preposition thing happened) there would’ve been more use of “gift” as a verb back then, as a direct translation of the Latin “donare”, which there isn’t really an English equivalent of. Yet research indicates that gift as a verb has only gotten really popular recently.

                  Personally, gift as a verb sounds perfectly normal to me and I found the fact that there are people who think it sounds weird surprising.

              • I’m going to be less kind than lyger and call you retarded. “To gift” is a verb. There are problems with the Eveyuu release. Quite a few of them. This is not one of them. Stop being stupid.

                Reply
                • Hm. I stand corrected. I honestly thought “to gift” was a recent development and could be hated with impunity. Now I’m going to have to re-evaluate my bias against it. Curse you, facts and evidence – why must you always stand in the way of my prejudices?

                  @Nevreen, I am unfamiliar with Eveyuu and their releases, and in fact neither knew nor care that they are the ones to use “to gift”. However, thanks to your spirited defense, they have gone from “fansub group I know nothing about” to “fansub group with at least one member who enters a civilised debate to sling insults and make unsupported claim”. I hope you take pride in your accomplishment.

                  • Unsupported claims of *what* exactly?

                    If I read your posts right, you claim that the verb “to gift” is only in the OED to reflect modern diction – wasn’t this proved to be an unsupported claim?

                    And hurling insults – you do realise we’re pretty much all fansubbers in here, right? What else did you expect? :D

                    Reply
                    • FalseDawn, you’re slightly late to the party. I originally thought that “to gift” was only in the OED to reflect modern diction, but I’ve since been proved wrong and said as much (see my previous post).

                      I would say my original claim was inaccurate rather than unsupported – I did refer to the OED, I was just wrong about what it said.

                      The unsupported claim I’m referring to is Nevreen’s “to gift is a verb”, which is not backed up by any argument or evidence whatsoever (whereas other posts in this discussion were), and as such is just a case of “take my word for it” from someone who’s just undermined their credibility by randomly insulting me.

                      RE hurling insults, I’ve met polite, friendly fansubbers. I know it’s not somehow magically impossible. And I could say “meh, it’s the Internet” and give up on everyone around me in advance – it’s a lot easier than having standards – but I really don’t like the person it would turn me into.

                  • I have nothing to do with this release and already said I didn’t think it was very good. I don’t know how you can be unaware which group used the verb, since Vance’s comment about Eveyuu’s “misuse” of it was what started this whole argument. Are you deliberately being ignorant?

                    As for being rude, I have a very low tolerance for persistent stupidity. You equated centuries-old English to net slang. I think my response was appropriate.

                    • Let’s suppose your assessment is entirely accurate and I was being stupid.

                      Did you believe that saying “you’re wrong; stop being stupid” was a viable communication strategy that would teach me the error of my ways?

                      Or did you just go “this person’s stupidity makes me angry; I will call them names until I feel better”?

                      @Eagle, the issue is now entirely settled, but thanks for the article anyway. It has some interesting observations.

      • It’s nice you managed to determine the quality of six releases based on twenty lines chosen to contrast with each other judged with such important criteria as comma splices. Obviously the rest of the few hundred lines aren’t needed to judge the overall quality of the scripts. Do you think your opinions are special enough to stand without actual justification?

        Reply
    • Translation Parties, in theory, tell you which group’s subs to download for a given series. Choosing the worst wouldn’t really help with that, especially seeing that one group’s quality can vary a lot between series due to different staff.

      Now if the poll was linked to an orbital laser satellite with each group’s coordinates or something…

      Hmm, I know what research I’m funding once I’m rich.

      Reply
    • Isn’t the whole purpose of the TL Parties to help people make up their mind on which group has the better overall scripts(Translations)?

      How would deciding the worse contender sway your opinion into whichever group you’re gonna watch?

      Reply
    • I see what you guys are saying. It just crossed my mind that some people might want to choose the most solid script. It appears to me that a low amount of mistakes would be helpful to decide that.

      The way TPs work now may suffice though, if the samples are good enough.

  30. This might be TME, but maybe confirmation bias can be lessened by stripping certain aspects of the subtitles from the comparisons and putting them in another section. (e.g., remove honorifics from subs and in another section mention that X group uses/doesn’t use honorifics; remove italics tags from monologues/thoughts and in another section write that X group italicizes/doesn’t italicize monologues/thoughts.)

    This way it might be a bit harder to pick groups by stylistic differences.

    Reply
    • It’s not much of a comparison of subs if you’re gonna be editing them to make them different to what they actually were supposed to be.

      Reply
      • Yes, but there’s also not much of a point in comparing subs if you’re picking them by looking at differences that don’t have much to do with the phrasing of the lines, like differences in naming/honorifics use. I still think these should be mentioned in a different section so that the reader doesn’t go into the party automatically knowing which subs belong to a certain group.

        For example, if I were to write a Shingeki no Kyoujin translation party, I’d probably replace all the “Eotens” into “Titans” or vice versa, so that the reader doesn’t automatically look at a line and think, “oh, that’s Commie”. Then, in another section, I’d write “Commie uses Eoten, so if it’s that big of a dealbreaker for you then don’t watch Commie.”

        This way, when you go through the examples, you’ll focus more on the wording of the lines rather than pick out groups based on simple differences that could easily be addressed separately, and you don’t have to go through 10 examples just to find out that you don’t like a group b/c they use “Eoten” instead of “Titan”.

        The reason why I made this suggestion was because sometimes when I do these I get distracted by differences that make it immediately obvious which lines belong to which group, and I think, “well, I chose this group in the last example, so maybe I’ll choose a different group this time,” and that doesn’t really help me make a decision based on how the groups handle English, which is the only reason why I try TL Parties anyway.

        TL;DR making a big deal out of nothing & I need to learn how to explain myself without using a lot of space.

        Reply
        • Good point. Although I’d say that is more the fault of the chooser than the subs. They have chosen to sacrifice the wording they like for differences in style by their own accord. Say you choose all the good lines then at the end you found out you got mostly lines from the group you didn’t like. Would you still go with that group?

          I also don’t see the logic behind “well, I chose this group in the last example, so maybe I’ll choose a different group this time,”. You would choose the group you like best or the lines you like best because when you watch the episode from the group you’ll only have the one group’s subs.

          In any case, you have the option to pick more than one group of lines for each part. You could pick all the groups if you wanted to or none at all. So for part X if you can’t choose between group A or B because one has better style and one has better lines then you can just pick both for that part.

          Reply
          • You’re right. My problem is something that should be sorted out on my side rather than D_S’s, and the “well…” thing is pretty illogical of me. I still think that naming differences can be distracting for the people who don’t mind the differences in naming, since they are consciously aware that they are picking one group over another during the party, if that makes sense. (Like, you’d know that you’re picking a group with “name-san” over “name”, and a previous choice can affect a future choice, say, if you wanted to have a clear result so that one group came out on top for archival purposes or whatnot.)

            Anyway, I’ll accept that my suggestion is a bad one, because of your point and since it’d be annoying to implement, and also because it’s pretty irrelevant with this specific translation party and doesn’t really have a place here.
