Hello! A little self-introduction—I'm Jasmine, and something of a translator, linguist, and academic. I've had the honor of working in video game localization for the past few years, on some very exciting projects which finally released this year! :^) I don't post much but I do like to yap...

Making a Frankenstein-themed zine for an assignment and since I have absolutely no chill about anything at all, decided to include some pages from a manga that I'll translate and typeset (since I didn't want to photocopy the official and using scans is icky). Forgot how fun manga translation is!

AI (LLMs) is TERRIBLE at translation. It should never be used for client/audience facing work, especially entertainment translation like manga and games.
And I'm tired of misinformed people trying to cut corners with it instead.
