Most Fan Translators are Fluent in Neither Japanese Nor English

 They are specifically malaysian. And they're not terribly fluent in malay either - the kind of person who says alot and atleast in english, but born in malaysia instead. 

 E.g. the everyone else is a returnee guy isn't fluent in either english or korean. Singapore? Yeah, malaysian, like I said.

  2. What's funny to me is translators/localizers translate grunts to words. The Japanese grunt, ka-sah!, gets translated "Damn it" or the f-bomb, but the Maylasians translate it "Jesus Christ man!" Its just a grunt though. Could just translate or "grrr" or just keep it.

New failcomment system also fails to publish my comments, it's not limited to yours. Keep trying, it will usually work, eventually.
