Why is China so far up ahead in translating VNs, doujins and anime? How did those godless communists beat our capitalistic system of translation?

Did you know there is a fuckton of mexicans (in their countries) who translate stuff into spanish with little to no effort?

Japanese is fairly easy for them to learn and understand.

>> No.1916279

because there are billions and billions of them.

Chinese people = automatically master of kanji/hanzi, much more so than your average japanese

Because Chinese is closer to Japanese than "English" is.

Us 'mercans are too busy not learning languages to translate that stuff.

Asians are the biggest otakus I know. Plus Asians are crazy smart. Add that together and you have translated shit.

The GSS OST is pretty cool. Any of the BGM when Gore/Yuka are around is fucking awesome. Fuck yeah, Madness Visitor!

Chinese language = Japanese Language

If you can read or write Chinese, you will be able to read most Japanese all that is left is to learn a little vocabulary and you become fluent in writing, speaking is another story.

too true, my first anime was on spanish television and my first fansubs were on VHS sold in the markets of a mexican border town. though i think only the rich fucks in large cities can afford japanese classes to do translations and then they just bootleg the shit out

This, +more people

1 billion people + Asians are tsundere for each other's stuff and they're right next to each other.
