IIIIITTTTT'SSSSS DOOOONNNNNEEEEE!!!!!!!!! How do you like it people??? It's in a new subbing style!! I'm so happy~ This is my best video so far~ *^* PLZ WATCH IN 1080p FOR BEST QUALITY!!
Ok, for people who are wondering why I subbed this even though there's already a subbed video out there,here's are the reasons: 1. The other video (there's only one out there) had fading subs. I personally don't like fading subs because its extremely hard to see what they are saying when they start talking really fast. I mean, you don't see professional subbers using fading subs, so plz don't use it. Pictures are ok for fading transitions, but plz no fading subs. It was hard to see the subs because the font size was too.thin. The words kinda blended in with the picture so it was really hard to see.
This is why my font colours don't relate to the character, but they show the words well. There's no point of subbing it when you can't see the subs properly.
I'M NOT LETTING BAD SUBS RUIN A PERFECT ASAKIKU, USUK, AND FRUK MINI DRAMA. THERE ARE SOME REALLY CUTE MOMENTS IN THERE AND I CAN'T LET IT GET RUINED. For subbers out there, plz don't get offended. I'm just saying what I think you can do to make your subs a bit more legible. ^^' Still accepting requests.
Plz see my 'About' section for more details.:D Ok, the most important part of the description. Did you guys like my old subbing style or my new one? My old style is a pic all the way through and easy to see subs, and my new one is a pic for everyone with coloured subs. Motype For Windows Free Download. My old one is extremely clear and easy to see the subs, but it doesn't have that episode feel My new one has a really nice episode feel, but subs are harder to see and the pictures might be really blurry. I'm subbing another video soon and I need to know your opinion! Plz comment below and tell me which style you like! I can't start subbing until I know so plz hurry!
^^ Another important thing. FRANCE IS NOT A RAPIST. DON'T THINK DIRTY STUFF WHEN YOU HEAR HIM DOING THINGS TO ENGLAND. There are some parts that might sound weird or confusing, like a extra noise or something.
I've tried to make it as clear as possible, so if you don't get it, rewatch it and it might make more sense. ^^ *mini spoiler* HOW DID YOU GUYS LIKE ENGLAND'S EPIC FAN PHOTO WHEN HE WAS LIKE 'YO, AMERICA!' NEAR THE END?? IT MADE ME FANGIRL SO HARD!!~ And plz don't ask me why the pic is slanted, it just looks better that way.
I like how in the beginning everyone had super cool fanart photos--and then there's England. XDDDD DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN ANYTHING. ALL RIGHTS GO TO THEIR RESPECTIVE OWNERS. -America: -Japan: -England: -France: -All.
— ',' GamesRadar When a Japanese game is released Stateside, there's a tendency to make the box art, or even the character models, a little more hardcore. Maybe it's as simple as adding, or maybe the character's model is completely redone. This is often done to characters who were originally intended to be cute. Sometimes this trope goes the other way, too: an American character may be made cuter for the Japanese release. This has to do with. Japanese culture in general is pretty much anyplace, and will take it in stride. American culture, to the contrary, is.
In a hard contrast to the Japanese, Americans often view cuteness as a sign of, and thus has a strong aversion to it in any media that's not explicitly kid-oriented. This attitude goes so far as to color American perceptions of Japanese culture; some historians have occasionally (and controversially) attempted to link to the national humiliation endured by Japan in and the nation's resulting 180° turn from to a pacifistic one. And speaking of color: in modern Japan, pink is a value-neutral color. There are even pink gas stations. In the US, bright pink tends to be associated with young or adolescent girls, so expect a toning-down of any ostentatiously pink cover images (and gas stations). And in an extra bonus,, expect the artwork cover to be more artistic than usual. This trope is one reason why has a separate tag for box shots, since sometimes it just happens that the box art of the games differs.

Brawl, Ultra, and more recently,, whose boxarts have Kirby actually looking happy for a change, but it seems to be creeping up again no thanks to 's cover (though to be fair, roughly half the Kirbys on Mass Attack's cover still retain their cute/curious expressions and most of the 'hardcore' ones are already attacking something).

The commercial for those games also established Kirby as a criminal. • Kirby's Block Ball plays this straight with the international version's intro and title screen, but inverts it with the advertising; it's the Japanese commercial that has Kirby tearing down buildings. The American commercial has an adorable animated Kirby that strangely has teeth. • Averted with Kirby Tilt N Tumble; both use similar official art of Kirby, with relatively happy expressions.

He's as equally annoyed on the Japanese box art as he was on the earlier game's American ones.

: Is that Kid Kool? What happened? He looks nothing like the guy on the cover. Now that’s what you would call cool.

The translators and even its name from the original (which was called Magic John, a reasonable change). And of course plunked in two completely different main characters in place of the originals.
Is a send-up of '80s surfer dude culture in place of a fairly forgettable platformer. • Not surprisingly, Magic John/ Totally Rad was published by, a company famous for having its game's characters and plot being almost completely altered for American release. A good example being Saiyuuki World 2, a game based loosely on (and sequel to a ) which became the Native American themed Whomp 'Em. • Taro's Quest, an unreleased and unfinished localization of Jaleco's clone Jajamaru Ninpou Chou, had major changes to the graphics, redrawing the character portraits to be less and outright replacing some of the more goofy-looking monsters. • The first Super Famicom game was translated and brought over as Legend of the Mystical Ninja, and (Kid Ying and Dr.

In Japan and Europe, the box to Link's latest DS adventure features him and ghost Zelda happy riding their train (the train being the game's big innovation, after all) while in America, Zelda is possessing a Phantom and Link is doing his best to look like a sword-brandishing tough guy.

In the original release, Japanese players got ◊, ◊.
• 3D downplays it. The American box art is a bit darker than the other regions, but is still in full color—although in this case the box art was pretty low-key to begin with. • For, the differs to the European box art, with a darker tone of color for the former than the latter. The EU box art also has Link looking like he's preparing for adventure, while the NA/JP box art has Link holding his sword and shield getting ready for combat action. • 's did a good job of capturing the overall feel of the game—quiet, isolated, beautiful, and above all artistic. The ◊ and gives it the look of an uninspired throwaway game, while making Ico himself look gritty, aggressive and as being straight from the —something he most definitely is not.
This happened because the artistic Japanese cover wasn't finished by the time of the American release date, but the resulting American cover was infamous enough that it actually gained a short set of comments from head development staff in an interview on the PS3 re-release. •: • 's ◊ is actually more intense than its ◊, with Samus running in front of an explosion instead of standing in an empty hallway. • also reversed the usual trend by being more action-packed, since the Japanese artwork. • The cover art for is a.

The European and Japanese box art has Travis standing in the streets of Santa Destroy with a smile on his face and an arm around Sylvia's waist.

And, as you can notice, the game is called Asterix and Obelix Kick Buttix in the US! • got the reverse of this: Compare the ◊ with the. Curiously, the American cover fits with the, but not with the happy original.
•: • The Japanese cover art for Dynasty Warriors 7 was very minimalist, with simply the game's logo on a gold background. One can't blame Koei for wanting to spruce it up a bit. But they may have gone ◊.

The Japanese ◊ has a cute looking knight trying to hide himself from the monsters that are attacking him. With such a box art, you would believe that they would try to remove the cuteness of the character when localizing the game to America.
But during the making of the American ◊ they decided that the guy should keep it's cuteness while fighting another knight. The result can best be described as 'disturbing'. • Metal Slug Anthology for the PSP is quite a weird aversion of this trope. The and are indeed more character driven than both the and the, but it is still not the cutest version. That one was that was released in the rest of Asia.
• In the hentai doujin platformer Succubus, the main character is a curvy anime succubus who can have sex with defeated enemies to regain health and magic.
