Rovole where is your avatar from? I don't recognize it. I learned the Korean alphabet was phonetic recently. Their writing looks so complicated that I had ignorantly assumed it used quasi-pictographs like Chinese. I also wonder if the Japanese Kana will completely replace their Kanji some day.
I came to a funny place in Caerleon's new game story. In Atlus' Legend of Forsena translation, Cai says he expected Zemeckis to cause trouble in Alemekia because Zemeckis had subdued all of Almekia's enemies and "the hunting dog with nothing left to hunt will hunt its master."
But what the actual Japanese says is "The hunting dog which hunts game to extinction is finally cooked by its master." For those who don't know, Zemeckis, an Almekian general, was falsely accused of treason by Almekian nobles who feared how powerful he had become. Quite a different sentiment from LoF version which paints Zemeckis as a dog who bites the hand that feeds it. I guess Atlus thought eating a dog was too foreign a concept to western audience.
