Hahaha I remember this screenshot of Bakshi in mr giancarlo xD it seems like a crazy bromance description lol

Has anyone played Sub for you? OMG is great I recommend it, just like all the games from that developer.

I'm going to play BL Gacha of the Gods now.

BAD AI!

カタイ/ Katai means both strong/solid (as in a bond) and hard (as in erection). The "(meaningful)" (意味深) (i'm guessing the other one somehow translated it as enigmatic?) isn't describing the bond but pointing out the double meaning of his own words, so it's like adding a (get it???) after your own joke (Thank you Bakshi we all laughed!!)

Then when he's saying how just watching it makes him get an erection (ボッキ), he censors it twice (er*ction and *rection). Thank you Bakshi for my innocence was preserved. And in the first instance he's also using shimasu wa which is a feminine way of ending a sentence (Once again thank you Bakshi)

(but also, in all seriousness, thank you for the explanation - I find that kind of breakdown fascinating, it's (amazing? depressing?) how much nuance that gets lost in translation)

Right?? And that's not counting the niche pop culture references I probably miss all the time (and that's true for all media regardless of language but the barrier does make it much harder to pick up on stuff I guess!) But it's also always fun to reread and notice new stuff!

And yeah it's funny how nowadays, AI translation is able to pick up on certain nuances not stated in text but that means it'll also often invent nuance that doesn't exist lol

A quick note: The translation depends a lot on which translator you're using—read this https://www.anime-sharing.com/threads/general-bl-games-discussion-thread.1864226/post-7764147
Many online translators have NSFW censorship. As a game translator, I use tools that don't have that kind of censorship, and I don't think the phrase is being all that misinterpreted—especially considering who the character is Bakshi

pop culture references

Speaking of, in this instance Bing managed to catch that 帰りま10 (kaerima-TEN) should be 'not going back home' (kaerimasen) and it had me look up - apparently 帰りま10 was the name of some variety show?

Thank you Bakshi for my innocence was preserved.

No preserving of your innocence, not in this thread!

Many online translators have NSFW censorship.

For sure, but basic Google and Bing (my staple diet) don't. As far as I've noticed.

I also use a Google LLM—and sometimes Google itself—but Bing in Spanish is absolute shit. I really like using the LLM because I can specify the characters' genders; Spanish is much harder to translate than English, thanks to all its damn grammatical rules t_t

Well, I'm currently diving into this new BL gacha game—damn, I've been laughing so much, especially with these two. I mean, the way one of them just says, "Let's stop being friends and start fucking instead"—hilarious!

Besides, I only have 2 SSRs, yet I can still hold my own against the bosses—though the game is definitely tougher to beat with just those 2. I also just unlocked the event; I don't usually play the beta versions of gacha BL games.

Honestly, I just want to fuck Asahi brother too, and these other two as well—I mean, why is everyone in the game so fuckable? It makes it hard for me to stop spending money $ lol

Spoiler

Well, if anyone wants to translate the images in case they don't know Spanish—go ahead, because I'm feeling too lazy to do it lol
