Metginks U Liek Wrightworth........ Idk🤑

I'm Chinese, so I wonder if non-Chinese understand

that in the Chinese version of Disney’s Mulan, the fake name she gives is “Ping”, but her family name “Fa” in English is “Hua” in Chinese, therefore her full name is “Hua Ping”, which is literally “Flower Vase”, and that’s why Shang is so bewildered because it’s a silly name.

I've had this idea for a while - the dynamic pre-finale but post-portal-reactivation is brief but super interesting ngl. They hate each other's ass

Do not tag as stancest

Looking at Klavier's canon 7 Years Ago vs Present Day designs, I do love the decision to smooth out his silhouette as an adult.

Where he once was jagged all over, he's now refined his look into a few sharp points.

He goes from cargo pants tucked into combats boots to slim-fit pants over boots with subtler tread. The collar pops less drastically. His longer hair keeps the sharp elements but within that smooth silhouette.

His blazer adds that eyecatching purple, replaces the kitschier elements of the top (the gold Gs & shoulder studs), smooths out the sleeves, and unifies the color scheme with its breast pocket.

It all reflect his maturity while still retaining key elements of his aesthetic: the silver chain-type jewelry, sharp hair, and purples. In fact, it adds a level of intentionality & emphasis to what stays. His hair even has a yin and yang shtick going on with his Gavinners emblem.

I asked one of my (male) friends to stop using the phrase “man up” and he has been using “fortify” for the past two weeks instead and it’s just a little thing but honestly it makes a difference

and tbh it’s also pretty funny when I start to deflate in the library and he leans over and goes “FORTIFY”

the official translation for aa:i collection referencing names/quirks of the fanmade translation is simultaneously insane to think about and incredibly in character for the series.

the sheer idea of a fanwork being so impactful on the series as a whole that the official release alludes to those choices of localization seems like the complete opposite of the dynamic you'd expect, but the reality is that this is just an inherent quality of ace attorney as a series.

the next best example is probably way back when one such change in the trial and tribulation fantranslation was referenced, despite it being unfinished and scrapped the moment Capcom USA so much as acknowledged the possibility of bringing the game to the west

also worth mentioning the remasters actively trying to repair any mention of 'sherlock' in the series specifically after the release of western great ace attorney

Caption by original artist: “This was finished on May 2023, and posted on lofter and weibo [TN: Both Chinese social media websites]. Looking back, it has many flaws, but I really can’t replicate the mood I had while drawing it (I was simultaneously crying and drawing lolol) So I haven’t edited it since I completed it.

Thank you for reading!”

The art does NOT belong to me. I only scanlated it on GIMP (from Chinese to English). Translator’s notes are here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-IcYXYR6EEputtuUK7u_MxKBV4MioaoM9m2240F7r38/edit

I love personalization. I love stickers on water bottles and on laptops. I love shitty marker drawing on the toes of converse. I love hand embroidered doodles on jeans. I love posters on walls. I love knick knacks on shelves. I love jewelry with goofy charms. I love when people take things and make them theirs.
