Reading how beast wars was so radically changed in its Japanese dub is giving me a literature crisis
#I look at my book of Cixin Liu’s short stories#which I loved dearly and made me cry multiple times#and it’s like. did I actually get the story? how much was changed? would I recognize the original if I was fluent in Chinese????#do we get anything as it should be? in its original tongue?#I know localization is a thing#and I detest dudebros who cry about censorship when it’s just reducing a female character’s bra size#but reading this….how the OG American show and the Japanese dub were two different experiences…#what’s going on??????? how is this done????? is anything the same across the world???#AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH#anyways. beast wars set the precedent of how transformers is in Japan and it’s like ah that’s why Megatron sounds like that in TFP JP
