>Why did Asellus grow a penis?
It's all part of the developers' Original Vision™ anon, you just don't understand.
No kidding though, in the cut content she was supposed to ask Nusakan if she'd eventually grow a dick due to Orlouge's blood.

>I'd be pretty surprised if Red didn't throw out at least one〝やれやれだぜ”
Iirc, he doesn't, Harid did in RomaSaGa3 though.
There are some things and wordplays that aren't reall possible to translate, for instance, when Red meets Asellus on the Cignus he says:

>アセルス姉ちゃん!
Big Sis Asellus!
>誰
Who is it?
>やっぱりアセルス姉ちゃんだよ!俺だ,れっと。
That's really you big sis Asellus, it's me (Retto)
>烈人君!
Retto-kun!

This is a wordplay on Red's name, basically, Asellus was Red's babysitter when he was little and she nicknamed him 烈人, which could be read as Retto, similar to his name in japanese, Reddo (レッド), the kanji used in Asellus' nickname can be roughly translated as "impetuous/energetic man" which is of course a reference to Red's character and his own shtick of hotheaded, gutsy sentai.
Then again, certain parts of the scripts were just butchered, Fuse is one of those characters that lost most of his character and mannerism, like when he thanks Campbell's receptionist in Manhattan saying サンキュー、かわいい子ちゃん...(THANK YOU, cutie...), you could have used Spanish or something since he used English or even use japanese and make him say "Arigato, cutie..." or something.
I mean, Fuse's mannerism isn't easy to properly translate, but they sure didn't even try, and it's a shame since part of his character is the contrast of him acting serious and professional in front of Campbell for instance and then turning into, well, Fuse for the rest of the game, you can't quite understand why he's so beloved by fans until you read him in japanese, he's a lovable slouch, vaguely reminiscent of Lupin actually.
