The translator chose, instead, to leave pieces untranslated (such as her saying "Nii," meaning brother, instead of "You," which is usually what she means, or "Big Brother" which would have been better for people who don't speak Japanese, especially since there are no translator notes), or to make her talk like my college notes, skipping those pesky words like "a" or "the." This made her come across as unable to speak rather than a girl of few words. In Japanese, you can give one-word sentences that have a ton of meaning.
But they are complete sentences in Japanese. In Japanese, she speaks in short, staccato sentences. The other thing I want to mention is the way Shiro was translated. I do want to say, though, that the short story at the end, that is entirely text, was a fun read, which is part of what saved this from getting only 1 star. And you won't scramble to hide it when people walk into the room. I just wouldn't bother with an overpriced fan-service-to-the-point-of-embarrassing manga for it. Two gaming savants get teleported to a magical world where everything is decided by a game. For the record,Īrtwork sacrificing story aside, the story itself is great. Characters (mostly female) have bizarre expressions that don't match the situation to try to make them more "Moe." Boobs become dislocated water balloons so they can be squished and moved around in painful, impossible ways. Artwork becomes inconsistent as skirts shrink and tops tighten just to show off that much more T&A. Manga panels get crowded to the point where it's difficult to read because of trying to fit too much T&A along with speech bubbles and plot. I'm not sure if the fan service was turned up for the manga or toned down for the anime, but I can honestly say the anime is better no matter how you look at it. Panty shots of an elementary school girl.
Is it as insane an amount as the manga? No. Is there fan service in the anime? Totally. They don't distract from the story and characters with meaningless fan service. Don't you hate when an otherwise excellent series is ruined by a disgustingly, distractingly HUGE amount of fan service?
