Normie. You must be a real normie if at this point in your life you are not actually craving for some unnatural thing appear before you just so you can make friends with it.

We have been over this a million times: Honorifics are necessary. Specially since it is picky dorks like you who bitch about localization and what not.

Precisely. There are no equivalents, and removing them means removing context.

>> No.12284763

>>12284750
That's only true if you've got a bad translation that is only able to convey direct meanings. Otherwise you can just have that 'context', in case it even matters once, translated by other means.

Like hell it will be. Japanese is all about subtlety on language. You would end up with screw ups like trying to translate Midsummer Night's Dream to spanish.

Fun fact: It is completely untranslatable.

>Japanese is all about subtlety on language.
No it isn't. It's just a language like any other language. Don't make me call you a weeb.
Besides, if it really was such a subtle language, carrying over just one little thing like honorifics wouldn't help at all.

It's not like western languages. Simple as that.

There are indeed much more differences between Japanese and Germanic/Romanic languages than there are between Germanic and Romanic. Still that doesn't mean there are less ways to express meanings and subtleties in those languages than there are in Japanese.

>> No.12285096

A lacking english lexicon combined with the bemusement and starry-eyed wonder of working with a new foreign system deludes weeaboo cretins with a fancy that japanese is 2deep4u.

Read English novels if you can't stand Japanese.
