Talk:Sailor Moon (character)の英語

There was a complaint that the referencing to Usagi sounding like just a little lazy versus Serena sounding like a ditz had no reference. Worry no more, I'm melting my brain with the dub looking for *gasp* cousin references. for Amara and Michelle. (save me!) OK. In the episode where "mini moon" first arrives, Serena says, "Hi, you look like da bomb in those kimonos" *privately screams* *goes off to rant about making the lead character sound like a stereotype of a Valley girl.* "pushing fish all night" Lita just said permanent damage.. and then Serena said I think the damage is done... and ironically I agree... back to subject. "mini breath" in this episode. Next episode there is a fudging of Japanese... "I read it with my imagination" It's nothing but symbols" making Serena look stupid, while Usagi she has some microbe of intelligence just not able to write kanji. In contrast, Neo-Queen Serenity is voiced without modularization in this episode, and without the valley girl dialect, which shows this was a purposeful decision, in contrast to that of the Japanese where the voicing is consistent, with Usagi's voice maybe having a bit more energy (quote from Mitsuishi about revving up for the role). Takoyaki is called popcorn... "Fantastic you're the best cousins in the world" is said by Rini. Second count... "then "oh zip it Rini, they are not your real cousins you already have a complete family." I believe "Oh zip it" doesn't have an equivalent slang expression, ne? "Oh great idea I'm dying for a nice cup of tea" "dying" I believe isn't part of the original translation... My pain will be your pain as I get through this. Pick and choose which part you want to include. --Hitsuji Kinno 05:27, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
