stop using the royal we it's not cute

:D I want to have a lot more of whatever you're doing.

why

thx ocee

[Diff](https://www.diffchecker.com/QJdU1DyV). I expected better and more from it based on the description, but a valid attempt. Still think you changed some of GJM's best lines for worse prosub ones.

never a dull moment in nyaa

Holy... He changed words...

imagine putting this much effort into a shit show

The absolute state of nyaa

> proofread far, far too many times \> uses `??`

it broke new ground

This was uplaoded by Seedsucksit. Trust me on this.

Okay, having read that diff, I'm disappointed. About half of the edits weren't improvements at all, and, more importantly, you didn't even touch awkward wording ("dusty-looking headband", "screw off to Earth", "let's clean things up quickly"), possible mistranslations (what kind of nonsense department is "management strategy department"?), minor mistakes like missed commas ("Beat me in a duel and I'll think about it" has two clauses), and consistency blunders (why is there a comma in "Permet Link, sufficient" but not in "Bioinfo and identification confirmed"? Why is "Link" capitalized?). These examples took me one glance at the text. If this were a test assignment for an actual job requiring proofreading skills, I wouldn't hire you. Forget "too many times", this isn't anywhere near enough, lol.

The only lines in GJM that objectively suck are "Running away affords a single blessing", "We got an overachiever here!", and "Th-Th-Th-Th-Th-Thank you!" (ごめんなさい, not すみません - wtf?) Also not really a fan of "You better make up for this!" since 責任を取る is a meme line for marrying a girl after knocking her up. Most of those other changes are minor and oftentimes worse. Edit: Also yes, 経営戦略 is "management strategy​" on Jisho but the more natural sounding translations are strategic management/business strategy

the road to sub perfection, will we ever reach it?

fansubbing in 2022 be like

incredible cringe content thank you

> do YOU demand your subs be edited by someone who spends too much time thinking about language? some of these edits are good, but can't you spend your too-much time editing a script that really needs it?

@motbob if this is the kind of "quality" they're going to put out then i think it's better if they don't edit any more scripts

going in my cringe compilation

> if this is the kind of “quality” they’re going to put out then i think it’s better if they don’t edit any more scripts Not that I want to make excuses for this guy, but it's hard to have a >50% "hit" rate when editing a script that's already had 3 sets of eyes on it.

> Not that I want to make excuses for this guy, but it’s hard to have a >50% “hit” rate when editing a script that’s already had 3 sets of eyes on it. No, not hard at all, actually. The number of people looking at a script isn't as relevant as the standards of quality they're pursuing. A few comments above, I posted several legitimate examples of items to be edited, and all of those went through at least four sets of eyes. I don't hold it against GJM because I'm sure none of those involved have a solid decade of experience doing this professionally. But when somebody makes bold claims about their effort, like our uploader here, I can't help picking things apart to see if they qualify for the level of quality they're talking about.

Some say GJM’s quality checking is so good that they forgot to translate a line within the very 1st minute of Witch from Mercury’s prologue episode

Can confirm QC gets harder the more times you look at it

"Running away affords a single blessing" is a nice line imo, it's memorable. Certainly could be improved but the replacement here is just awful.

> Claims to be better, ends up being worse. Is this Daddy?

Honestly, the prologue (episode 00) needs some work too, OP. I had to struggle to understand most of it, especially the first part with the news broadcast and Council meeting. So I'm going to commend you for trying. Don't worry about the naysayers and do your thang, keep on improving. <3

~~just understand better~~

lol

@Gnome It over-explains an intentionally vague line and I’m not even sure it jibes with the explanatory vaccination metaphor in https://g-witch.net/music/novel/

nyaa is a containment site just like /pol/ is a containment board

You went from this: Transfer paperwork, done. School uniform, ready. Rules and regulations, checked. Cockpit requirements, met. To this: Transfer paperwork, check. School uniform, check. School rules, check. Cockpit regulations, check. And that's just the first 4 fucking lines in the script, and expect anyone to take this seriously? You make me want to fucking puke. AVOID this trash release unless you want to lose all the writing style to some retarded pseudo-formal editing.

somehow made this shit show even shittier lmao

thanks

Fuck gundam seed. #fuck720p #fuckreencode #fuckhevc #fuckseed

dangerously based

@Guncannon Just read a fan translation of it and you're right, the line works better as something that can be applied universally. "Blessing" limits it.

I wrote the most fuckign ~~sarcastic~~ overdramatic description for my friend's edit that I muxed and you all took this way too seriously 10/10 i have not laughed this fucking hard in years
