Question about Samurai 7

[torpid]

I just started watching this. I noticed that the weird translation is only for when the peasants speak. Is this intentional? I think it is, but am not sure. I was imagining the japanese being somewhat slang-y and the translators doing their best to approximate it. Is that not the case?

thats because Lunras translations SUCK ASS

too bad it just got licensed bu un-FUNAMATION so all teh fansubbers stopped dooing it and took down the torrents

However IY-F said the will keep doing it but they are only on ep 11 now

If you want a good English translation, watch "The Magnificent 7". 😉

If it gets licensed, it means they'll sell it in the US right? So where's the problem? 😕

it takes years for them to get the DVDs out,
2) the put like 3 episodes on a DVD and charge 30$+ for them
3) the dubbs ALWAYS SUCK
4) and they typically fusk up the translation in the subbtitles

it has gotten licensed, and is currently on episode 17. there are 26 total episodes. however, the tv station in japan showing samurai 7 had licensed out the show only until episode 17 and thus will not show any more. so whatever groups out there who are still going to sub it can sub only until episode 17. the rest of the episodes will be released in japan and subbed as they come out. however, the tv station that picks it up will have it show it starting all over from episode 1. so we'll have to wait for all the episodes to be released in order till it reaches 17 and the groups start subbing again =/

The translations for them are like that because they don't speak properly in Japanese either.
