Galbadia Hotel by Yoshinkeru at 3:58 PM EDT on April 12, 2006
Ah yes, Galbadia Hotel. My dad gave me a link to that site recently, and let me tell you, IT ROCKS. I even found what I've been searching for since I got the game: Gitaroo-man musics! I've also found the remixes to F-Zero X to be awesome.

Oh, and look for my MIDIs on the site. That's right, they're hosting MIDIs from VGMusic.com, and I've submitted my own sequences of GameBoy Camera Simple, but I had to start somewhere.) on there, so be on the lookout for those.

My router sucks at port forwarding. It appears that when a port forward is enabled that the connection operates slower than usual. Hopefully I can fix this.

Speaking of GH, I found the sweetest UT tune there.

That is some crazy photoshopping O_O

Incidently I don't get why a person pretending to be a stereotypical Mexican is funny... although it did make me laugh... I must just be strange

Well, I got One Piece 183 downloaded today, only to be met with this horrible translation:



Someone please tell me what the fuck a goog is.

My older brother downloaded "Tenchi: GXP." He and I watched it. The translation was just about as bad as that one. In all honesty, I was laughing when watching GXP, but not because the show was funny. I was laughing because I had lost all my sanity trying to understand the horrible translation, and the even worse storyline... Seriously, the last three episodes were terrible. Watching them, I couldn't help but think "Geez, what happened? Did these guys expect to make 2 seasons? Then, suddenly, they're told that it's not going to make it past 1 season, so they're forced to put all of season 2 into the last 3 shows of season 1?" The show really didn't make much sense overall, but it completely lost it for the last 3 shows.

I will say though, that the first few episodes were genuinely funny. The main character's luck is so bad, that he is accidently taken into space, where he is then attacked by space-pirates. The ship he's on trys to randomly "jump" away, but the space-pirates know the algorithm that the ship uses to generate the jump coordinates, so the pirates follow them to the new location. Not knowing what else to do, the captian of the ship (for reasons I either didn't catch, didn't make sense, or don't remember) tells the main character to randomly enter new coordinates into the computer for the next jump. He does so, and ends up in a completely unrelated space-pirate ambush. This happens continues to happen until they have at least 100 pirates chasing them down. Finally, they end up in another huge pirate raid. However, this one was a trap for the pirates (just not the pirates that were chasing the character's ship). So, they jump into the scene with at least 100 pirates on their tail. So, the space cops, police, or whatever they're called in this Anime, end up having the biggest success in capturing pirates in years. It was so successful in fact, that the police hire the main character into the force, because his luck is so bad that he attracts pirates to him. They end up using the main character as their bait to catch more pirates.

Well, after typing it, it probably doesn't sound quite as funny as it was to watch. If you, for some reason, do decide to watch it, I recommend you don't watch anymore than 3 or 4 episodes. It only goes downhill from there. Then again, I watched a poor fan translation, so maybe a professional translation would be better. I know there was a USA release of GXP. I saw in my local "Software Ect." Which honestly really really surprised me. I never expected it to get a stateside release. I thought it was terrible.

And that's my experience with poorly translated Anime. Rather funny overall, but it certainly did cause a headache. Mouser X over and out.

One Piece 183 again~


This next image was taken off a Lupin III DVD lying around somewhere. I personally think that Japan should stop trying to teach English and start teaching Chinese because one day the 1.5 billion Chinese population will suddenly find out that they are now running the world and not a bunch of... (ahem) sorry, I got into "political ranting mode".


And last but not least, one from Porco Rosso:

(Subtitle times will do just fine.)

00:10:04,399 --> 00:10:05,889
What the hell you talking about!

133
00:10:06,601 --> 00:10:07,590
You guys don't understand anything.

134
00:10:08,104 --> 00:10:10,003
I asked whether you feel ashamed or not.

135
00:10:10,706 --> 00:10:13,003
Aren't you ashamed of being helped by Curtis,
the American?

136
00:10:13,708 --> 00:10:15,403
If your mother heard of that,
she would cry,

137
00:10:15,912 --> 00:10:17,105
and don't even take a shower.
