BeaStars Episode 5 (S1)

:D This is my final day off then I'm going to try and record again tomorrow! Hopefully we can get some JoJo's in. Going to see how I am feeling pain wise but these past few days of rest have been helping.

BeaStars Episode 5 (S1)

Comments

The subtitles thing: Yeah, the subtitles were meant to describe what was being said in the Japanese dub. When adapting it to English, the VAs had to convey similar meaning. Trouble is: since there's 3D elements involved in the show, they couldn't do a common dubbing practice of repeating/altering lip-flaps or similar movements. They had to adapt in the ways a lot of anime does ("Yamero" becomes "cut it out" or some other three-syllable phrase to match the movements). Just kinda silly that Netflix didn't make other sets of subtitles to fit to each dubbing's alterations. And yeah, there was some adaptation quirks with the names. Legoshi was named after Bello Lugosi, but in Japanese it was pronounced "Legoshi" instead of Lugosi, which the English VAs and fandom went with for his English name. Similar cases happened with Haru (originally "Hal" but was pronounced "Haru") in Japanese) and of course Louis (which I'm sure everyone has pointed out by now lol). So in brief it's just adaptation shenanigans lol

absolutely wild how wrong the subtitles are

Winter Turnip

Its cause of the whole difference in accent from language to language. Its common for names going from sub to dub from japan to have the R sound like L or vice versa, much like how spanish the double L should make a the capital L sound in english but in spanish it actually makes the Y sound. Ex. My name, ins spanish is Me llamo, pronounced something ilke ( Meh Ya Mo).

TragicEdge

That's a result of cultural barriers, No 'L sound' in Japan for example and so Louis is pronounced as Rouis there.

Really! I honestly did not know that thanx for the fact

Hollowjac

She is still recovering, this has been recording before. Think when she gets better ATLA will continue. Since it seems to be one of 3 series that has priority (Jojo, Mob and ATLA) (Oh, maybe AoT now again too).

I think bird boy might be Cassowary, but I could be wrong.

Thanks for the reaction. Yeah I can see how queen got the idea the Legoshi and Jack are her and CILFs self inserts, the almost synced "I don't know" was priceless XD I know this isn't some grand adventure like One Piece but I'm a bigger fan of these character driven and condensed stories. Feels like the stakes are even higher strangely enough.

Joey Cat

ofc in this case. Its Haru, think its even written in kanji for spring (Haru) While Legoshi is named after Bela Legosi (hungarian actor), but since they can't pronounce it, they say Regoshi XD Good luck if you ever try learning japanse :D

Ivan

Katakana to latin alphabet gets gets really crazy in japan too. Its not just Netflix. If author of the show named a rabbit Hal for example. Japanese would read that as Haru. And translator can't know whats her name without actually seeing the spelling in latin. Cuz in japanese manga for example would also say Haru even tho author means maybe Hal lol. Its very chaotic. Thats why autotraslation is very bad.

Ivan

Subtitles for anime is weird with Rs and Ls like in another one they subtitles say rukakakou, but they say lukako, don't let it confuse you and just say whatever is more comfortable

Sinsinchi Bomba

The choices to sub their names like that are quite baffling, especially hearing now how the dub keeps their original names... I remember watching the fansubs before the show debuted on western netflix and I think that was honestly the ideal experience.

cyberspacecat

Thanks for the video

TrinitytheApostle

Okay yeah idk what they're doing with the subtitles now LOL

Sisyphus

Jack's VA is Ben Diskin. He has great range.

Haru: Pouring out all her frustrations against her bullies. Legoshi: Default Dance

I love Haru, our sex positive rabbit queen.

Fernando Alonso Wilford

Fun fact the writer of the manga wears a chicken head to hide her face

Hollowjac

Fun fact: the singer for the opening (ALI) also did the first ending to JJK.
