i just learned about the official english version of Racing into the Night and i am so fucking baffled, i've never seen anyone do anything like this, what the FUCK
they translated??? the entire song??? so that if you aren't paying attention??? it still sounds like the original Japanese??? they tried to match the phonetics as close as they possibly could??????? so that listening to it, it literally feels like a soramimi of the original. what the fuck why huh what huh
listen to everything past the 1 minute mark here, it's like the uncanny valley of linguistics in music. i'm so enthralled, why did they go to the effort to do this
Y'know, as someone who does do translyrics sometimes, I do appreciate it on some level. A lot of people really underestimate how much the inherent phonetics of the Japanese language - namely, the fact that there are essentially only five vowel sounds - influence how lyrics are naturally written. It's almost hard to not do inline rhymes. Lean into it more and you have something catchy. Yet when translating the musical elements of English, people either don't try to replicate that feeling due to it being outright difficult or just not even recognizing that specific quality of the original Japanese music enough to try to transfer that element to English, even if it takes more of a Shakespearean and/or MF Doom mastery of English to convey the same feeling using English vernacular.
That being said... trying to preserve not the rhyme scheme, but even the specific vowels being rhymed, and even the consonants... is kind of doing a little bit too much. And only really pleases the people who are already familiar with the phonetics of the original song. Which arguably defeats the purpose of doing a translation to reach more people... unless you're just doing it for the sake of doing it which is also respectable.
It's crazy.
you know i've been listening to japanese music and translyrics of said music for most of my life and somehow the idea that internal rhyming is just easier is something that's never occurred to me? I was always wondering why my lyrics just don't flow nearly as well as the songs that inspired me, and i always figured it was just like. Due to syllabic count differences, but this makes so so so much sense.

Who up deviling their minion
genuinely I'm so sick of people wanting all fiction to be ethical. can we all just get a little gross with it. the point of fiction is that it's not real. we can be unethical in fiction; same goes with being perverted with fiction, being unrealistic with fiction, and being grotesque with fiction. not all fiction has to be ethical, not every character has to be ethical, and that's okay. can we stop with the puritanism. be gross. be unrealistic. be whatever. if I don't like it it's not my business as long as we're all clear that its fictional.

people in the replies are going "what about books glorifying unethical things" and "what if it's propaganda" and you, my friends, are who this comic was made for
