I won’t stop reminding you this fact. This is horrible. The way they’re treating these people is horrible. The situation they are in is a nightmare. I just can’t stop thinking about what it feels like to be without water for 3 years. Three years of struggle, fear for your kids and fear that nothing will change. This is extremely frustrating.

Flint’s population is 60% black. Imagine the same thing happening in a predominantly white city. I can’t.

“yikes” is the word equivalent of quickly turning away from a messy situation while raising your eyebrows and taking a sip of your drink

I hope that in 2017 your wallet will be as thick as Jimin’s thighs, that your life will be as joyful as Hobi’s existence, that your academic/job career will be as successful as Yoongi, that you are as loved as Jungkook is, that you are as determined as Jin is, that your mind will be as youthful as Taehyung’s but as wise as Namjoon’s

What did we do to deserve namjoon? He always tries to speak in english to make us intl fans feel included. He subbed a whole vlive for us because no one did it and he knew how hard it was for us to understand. He thanks us in award shows all the time. If you ever forget how amazing namjoon is and why he deserves to be the leader just read this.

I’m honestly a bit disappointed in this, I feel like I could have done this better or could’ve had a better story idea in general. But anyway, here’s something I made for Oikawa’s birthday. :’)

Lost in Translation on Ice - Translation Mistakes in Episodes 1-6

Hi! I’m that person who wrote that post with the lost-in-translation innuendo from episode 6. After that, some people said they want to know about the rest of the ‘lost in translation stuff’ from the rest of the episodes……so, hey, I’m crazy, so I went and did it.

This post aims to collect and explain as many translation errors, emphasis changes and things that just can’t make it through the language barrier as possible from the Yuri on Ice official subs, through episodes 1-6.

I want to preface this by saying that I have the utmost respect for Crunchyroll translators. Theirs is a tough job : parsing everything by ear, running on tight deadlines, having no context for future episodes and needing to make sure everything sounds like a real conversation. It’s hard, and I don’t envy them their jobs.

But even the best translators could make mistakes.

Let’s get started, shall we? Episode 1’s going to be a little dry, but rest assured that there are some juicy, tasty stuff down the line in further episodes! This is also going to be very long, so please bear with me. A short count of issues :

Episode 1 - 17 issues Episode 2 - 15 issues Episode 3 - 9 issues Episode 4 - 23 issues Episode 5 - 26 issues (!!!!!)<– this one is important Episode 6 - 20 issues  (This is going for maximum accuracy, so there will be some splitting hair and some throwing conversational flow to the winds when it becomes necessary.)

Episode 1

The subs translated this line into present perfect tense, but it’s actually in the past perfect tense. Correct version : Ever since I first saw his skating, it had been an unending chain of surprises.

You know, in case we don’t have enough ‘describe Victor in the past tense’ things to freak out about!

The subs missed a word here, simplified the sentence and removed the tiny personal touch of the announcer to make it more like English language sports commentary. The announcer also described Victor’s skating, not just the state of his competition. The original line is 「いや、フリーも驚異な強さで圧倒しました！」(いや means ‘no’, but in cases like this it’s often used to show awe at something you half-expect anyway.) When you add the missing bits back in, the line would be like : I’ll be damned, he also crushed the FS with a miraculously strong performance!

'Seems to lay such rumors to rest’ is a rather mild way to put what the announcer is saying. He sounds quite excited in the Japanese commentary, but that’s not how English sports commentary works, so….anyway, the original line is 「そんな噂を吹き飛ばすかのような圧巻の滑りでした」, which would make the whole sentence ’Some speculated that he might retire this season, but that was a masterful performance to blow any such rumors out of the water!’

The actual meaning doesn’t change much, but the emphasis has been shifted quite a ways.
