transformers did not get accepted at its current level until...last year


and that's a series regulars have loved and loved using for over a decade, with many of said feats being almost as old or older :skully
 
to be fair though that guy Gutts X3 had posted some obscure TF stuff on fanzverse, but people weren't paying as much attention because biggaversal threads only matter if they're marvel or dc
 
The Nasuverse took like 10 years, especially after the Fate/Extra CCC wank that even Internet WatchDog fully remembers.
And yeah, DBS took until like the Anime's version of BoG and even then alot of change to get Universal backing.

Don't expect To Aru to get instant treatment and don't bitch if it doesn't happen immediately... unless you want your series to be treated like how Genis-Vell is treated.
 
we had tf like universal maximum

bionicles like mid tiers in oda piece

lmao

to

proper update a series, you need legit and valid feats

even if they obscure, as along as they fit the story and don''t contradict, the verse will get upgraded

and a big note: light novels have it harder, cuz it's words, no feats on panel

and we all know, that authors tend to exaggerate and don't info enough for their series

plus, accuracy of the translation

I mean, I'd argue that light novels are relatively easier to argue for.

Like, it's pretty easy to find the source for a specific scan or not, barring issues of translation or the author exaggerating stuff.

Eh? Translations is a major issue and a big ass problem even if it's meant well since Japanese to English is one of the hardest translations to ever do properly even compared to other languages so that's a huge barrier right there.

Then you have the sentence structure and similes which while it's something SB loves to use to try and disprove feats way too often IS a legit issue for Light Novels in comparison to just straight up pictures.
Like for comparison sake:


It's easy for sites like Spacebattles to shut down a series like Shadow Hearts because "Muh Flowery Language"... unless you play the game and witness the fact that alot of the shit that's used in it even from Bestiary and the characters... is actually meant to be true like literally talking to the personification of Fate... and his Daughter.
Or fighting the legit King Solomon or a being impersonating God and so on and so forth.

Translation's probably one of the hardest parts about this stuff. Onscreen feats are easy, but stuff that's explained in dialogue or lore is a lot harder for this very reason.

Xhom already mentioned Nasuverse, which is probably the biggest offender of this, but other series are subject to this too. FromSoft stuff being the first to come to my head. Shit, even Soul Calibur (a series I bat for) isn't immune to this if the Soul Archive is anything to go by :hestonpls

GaRbs literally admitted that there's a clique making fun of me whenever I say something about the Nasuverse :diolaugh
It's the literal equivalent of Nerds thinking they can make fun of Jocks before they get jeered by the entire student body:kobeha

souls has a fuckton of things lost in translation which makes sense because Miyazaki's some kind of paychopath with how much detail and weird linquistic bullshit he ties into the story, but it usually doesn't cross with this hobby much at least


Lokey is apparently planning on examining elden ring translations and writing a full thing on the cosmology soon, so curious if that reveals anything that isn't public knowledge yet

It's why you see me using official translations more often than Fan Translations since they are approved by the Japanese team(and don't tell me they aren't or we wouldn't have Altria for fuck's sake :diolaugh) and even then, I usually use the Manga to make it even more apparent where the feats are.
This doesn't mean Fan Translations cannot be used, you will need to make certain they are as close to accurate as possible and not a complete waste of time(For instance, Mirror Moon is a well known Translation team that's actually pretty bad at translating for the Nasuverse, sometimes taking the meanings way too literal compared to other translators of the Nasuverse).

If that isn't the understatement of the century I don't know what is.

What is it with so many Japanese writers being batshit insane? :mjlol
