I wrote more words about how it feels to be a translator watching the games press report on AI and labor, coming from a field that's fought these battles for decades. It may look like I'm beating up on one outlet, but it's not about them; I've been trying to write this for me and my peers all year.
You Can't Report on Hunger While Taking Bread Off the Table
On the proliferation of machine translation in video game outlets covering the effects of AI on labor.

I am not wont to drag Twitter drama on here especially on such an auspicious night as this, but there is a fansubber who the toku community welcomes with open arms who not only doesn't fucking know Japanese but is a complete piece of shit! Posting testimony about Kaikisubs from a friend not on bsky

New article on ★ daiz.moe

Crunchyroll is destroying its subtitles for no good reason
daiz.moe/crunchyroll-...

A ton of research and effort went into this one. This is the article to read to get to the bottom of Crunchyroll's subtitle changes!

Replies here will show up as comments (eventually)
Crunchyroll is destroying its subtitles for no good reason | Daiz.moe
With the Fall 2025 anime season, Crunchyroll demonstrates zero respect for anime as a medium as the presentation quality of its subtitles reach an all-time low.

Via Press Gazette: "The Daily Star’s livestream of the Liz Truss lettuce has been acquired by the British Film Institute’s National Archive for a collection of significant pieces of online video. The BFI’s curator said it was “a seminal moment in British political history”"

Devastating news for Italo/Eurobeat fans. Reports that legendary singer/producer Mauro Farina died at 68. HUGELY prolific, releasing under over 80 names incl. Max Coveri, Alphatown, FCF, Radiorama, King Kong & D'Jungle Girls, Danny Keith and Styloo. Probably wrote 60%+ of my favs.

Absolutely devastated by this news. SpaceDrake was no doubt a huge influence in drumming up interest for Japanese indie games localized into English and pushing for them on digital distribution storefronts like steam. Huge loss. Might be time for another playthrough of Recettear in his honour.

Gacha I play (and probably spent a bit much on), shutting down after 18 months and it hurts.

Now that it's out, time for the usual.

I was the team lead for Super Robot Wars Y! I oversaw the translators and editors, and I handled final review passes.

I think this game's writing is something special, and I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did!

The true pain of realising something you pre-ordered from Japan several months ago got returned to sender because you entered your own address wrong.

... Please, I'm begging y'all, don't use the term "lost media" to describe anything that's not on a streaming service. It's a term with a distinct meaning and usage.

When something was released on DVD, and is readily available in The Usual Locations (TM), it's the exact opposite of "lost."

Does anybody out there have the old CPM/A18 DVDs of La Blue Girl and/or New Urotsukidoji that they can rip for me? Looking for some of the incredibly silly bonus features I made for those discs. ("La Blue Girl SUPAA INTAVYUU SUPESHARU" and the wanking 5.1 audio test)

Never change FGO, giving me 3 copies of the SSR before a single copy of the SR I actually wanted. Reserves in shambles.
