/jp/ - Otaku Culture

Why do all attempts of a Japanese company trying to get an English translation lead to a shitty translation?

I cried.

Who cares, their translations are worse than what MangaGamer did for Edelweiss, and unlike MangaGamer, nothing they have is worth playing.

So HgameZ's website is down, wonder if they are bowing out before ever attempting to get into the market

Which has the better translation, Shuffle or Family Project?

>>2982853

Sex & Friends is worse than that.

1.) They are significantly improved from that, so stop pretending that the Higurashi translations will be like that
2.) Could be worse, see this from the HgameZ trails.
