Let's say some Japanese developers "localized" a character. Perhaps he's clearly a Frenchman or based on a Western character, but they couldn't do the dialect in Japanese so they gave him a regional Japanese accent.
Now say someone translates it into English. Is it then fine to "un-localize" the character (e.g. changing some regional saying "back" into "sacrebleu!"), or should they respect the Japanese interpretation?
