Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure a good chunk, if not the entire translation, was done by Toby himself, and that's so important because it give you another point of view of the messages he wants to send to the player.

One of my favorite detail (and again I know very little about Japanese Deltarune) is the pipis/Spamtenna scene in chap 3. In English, whether Tenna recognized Spamton or not was left pretty ambiguous. But in the Japanese translation, Tenna's "what the..?!" was changed to something along the lines of "it can't be..?!", pretty much implying he didn't just recognized Spamton, he also seems to be in denial about what he sees. I rarely see this detail brought up in Spamtenna related videos/analysis, I think it's so important. Like there's still people insisting that Tenna didn't recognize Spamton in that scene. He did. Oh he absolutely did, Tenna is much more aware of what's going on than we think. One of the key aspect of this character is that he knows the reality of things but he looooves taking refuge in denial and pretending nothing's wrong, nothing changed, no little mailman was turned into a puppet abomination because of HIS doing.

...by most metrics. A newer arrival to the narrative setting primes her for a tutorial and meet the neighborhood/character exposition. Being socially isolated and apparently abrasive means she's got a reason to only have a few friends, and gives her that classic underdog theme.

a greedy bastard who used Spamton for his own profit

or a desperate bastard who knew the consequences, and yet they both chose to go along with it in hopes of overcoming their struggles together.

I still think deep down Tenna cares for Spamton. I still think deep down Tenna is remorseful, because he wouldn't act the way he does if he wasn't. He's still acting irresponsible by not taking accountability for what happened but we know he's remorseful, we know he's sad over loosing Spamton. They were both wrong and greedy and desperate. And the lack of communication was the biggest crack in the wall. I still hope for a reconciliation because this yaoi is so doomed it's bullshit.
