KochiKame Random Bad Subtitles (TV + Movie 2)

PS: this show is quite simple, so google translation is almost enough to understand everything. The main issue - mixed-up pronouns.

epic

Well, it's not Evangelion :)
And google translation jap->eng became really good nowadays. It was awful several years ago.

no, it's still garbage and you should delete this trash upload

Google was made by me from japanese subtitles.

Nice.

Based. Thanks for the subs!

@mods ban MTL memes

I have seriously no idea why Machine Translation is still allowed. Because it’s impossible to determine objectively if someone machine-translated it?

Holy shit. It just keeps getting better.

It's actually because nyaa doesn't have any restrictions on quality as of now, so anyone is free to upload whatever garbage they want to. This is the only reason why I prefer PTs sometimes, they don't usually have great control either but at least they don't allow absolute garbage.

@Spc_away,
You saying that this show is "simple" just proves how little you know. Even if it was a simple kids show google TL would be terrible. But KochiKame has plenty of complexity in its language making machine translations utterly pointless.

on my IMHO

Finally some quality stuff

Guys, I'd really appreciate if you have some better subs for these episodes.
Too bad, nobody translates good old comedy shows. Only modern hyped shit.

@Tjorna, "You saying that this show is “simple” just proves how little you know."
You can repeat your complaints in each torrent of Detective Conan.

@Spc_away,
Why would I do that? A majority of DC episodes has good subs. I really don't get what you're trying to get at.
You really should just delete this before some poor sod downloads it and actually watches it.

@Tjorna, please, remind me the latest DC episode with fully described japanese ambiguous texts and proverbs.

Also, I’d really appreciate if you show me some better subs for these Kochikame episodes. Then I'd delete this torrent immediately.

@Spc_away,
Watching it raw is better than this. At least then the viewer can guess what's going on based on textual clues, instead of getting completely incorrect information from your horrendous subs.

And Elusive is still working on this show. If you have the ability to help them I think they'd greatly appreciate some assistance.

@Tjorna, "viewer can guess what’s going on based on textual clues".
Only guess. But Google translates main topics accurately in most cases.

"And Elusive is still working on this show."
Yes. Several episodes per year.
When they finish the episodes in this torrent, I'd delete this torrent immediately. Expected year: 2050.

@Spc_away,
Yes, actual fansubbing takes time, even more so if you don't have a bunch of staff.
Unlike you throwing it into google TL, which does not even remotely get the "main topics accurately in most cases", without any editing/tlc/qc.

@Tjorna, "which does not even remotely get the “main topics accurately in most cases”"
Much less remotely, than "raw guess".

Yes. Several episodes per year.

clearly they should google translate the episodes so they can sub them faster

Dang bro, great idea. We should've used Google translate too instead of making good subs.

Yooo what's with all this elitist bullshit going on. Live and let live people damn

@herkz, @Joka, Dang bros, so do you have only 2 options: Google translate or 1 episode per quarter?

PS: Ah, that 2007, when several groups were making excellent rip + translation + ssa styles in 3-5 days after it was shown on TV.
CR killed fansubs.

I guess a person like you would prefer a shitty product over a good one as long as it takes less time. That probably happened to you too.

Those fansubbers grew up and got a job/college/life, so they can't sit around at 4AM in the morning to get their raws asap and start fansubbing. And zoomers are shit at everything so can't expect anything from them.

@Joka, "less time"?
Are you an elf? With 200+ years lifetime?

Are you a fucking idiot? Lmao.

@Joka, do you know math?
The series started 24 years ago. Currently there's only 22 translated (to english) episodes (of 380 with specials).
Try to calculate, when it will be fully translated.

Elusive has released "X" episodes in a year while you haven't released any. By the way, you suck at math and timekeeping. 9 episodes per year (which is Elusive's output so far) doesn't make one episode per quarter, and furthermore, if the current pace were to be maintained going forward (and if the figure of 344 episodes, excluding specials, is correct), the entire series would be finished in 2056, not 2050. As we can see thanks to this upload, you also suck at Japanese and at using technology. I'm afraid you've failed every relevant check that would confirm that your opinion matters at all.

You know shit about the project. We have more stuff done, we just need some time to figure out how to release all of it. What if, instead of using fucking google translate, you wait for a good translation? Is it really that hard? Big boy needs those episodes now?

tfw guy trys to use facts and logic to prove MTL good, but all his facts wrong

@ikasamapetenshi, actually, I did Dirty Pair TV (26 episodes) in 2 weeks in 2009 :) Copying English subs from shitty hardsubs + making translation to russian.
Though, I had influenza and nothing to do then... Too bad, I don't have that much time now.

@Joka, you still didn't your math. I'm waiting.

Spc_subs are Seriously Pretty Crap. I'd much rather watch Nanda or deku subs.

At least those are funny. Also, don't need to do any maths, dumbass. ikasamapetenshi already did for me.

People gotta have their Kochikame english subs NOW!!! don't they?

I'm glad that I suck in the language I never studied. Many fansubbers suck in it even if they did.
@ikasamapetenshi, I'm so ashamed. Let me see your excellent subs as the guiding light.
@Joka, well, if 36 years of waiting is ok for you, then I don't have anything else to say.

You won't have to wait that much, you fucking moron. Besides, you don't have to wait, right? You already got your awesome subs!

@Joka, of course, not that much. With such brilliant people like you, I don't think subs will be done anywhen.
The only hope is for BD remaster or something like that.

But you don't have to wait, right? You already have your premium Google Translated subs.

@Joka, so you think that Google Translation can be "premium"? Good for you.
I have to disagree. I use them only to understand, what the characters are talking about.

I'd rather watch it in fucking hindi than using those subs, dumbass.

@Joka, as I already told you, good for you :)
BTW, obscenities even in these google subs are not that plain. I'm really in fear for the future of fansub...

Also, by mistake, I made episode 222 too. And now I can compare this awful Google Translation:
-- Hana-chan
-- Jun-kun

with excellent ATTKC translation:
-- Hana
-- Joe

@Joka, is it your magnificient work? :)

That episode was released years before I joined the team you fucking buffoon.

I'm really glad! BTW, will you re-release old ATTKC-made episodes, or they are fine as it is?

@Spc_away
I don't translate anime so you will only find my TLC jobs on this website. You shouldn't take anything I or anyone else does as a "guiding light", but you should be perceptive enough to realize these subs are useless. Learn some Japanese, it's not as hard as people say it is. Then, the next time you use machine translation to make subtitles you'll be able to see just how bad they are on your own and won't need other people to tell you.

Yes, we will redo all of the shitty ATTKC releases. We're already working on a batch for episodes 1-12.

@ikasamapetenshi, "Learn some Japanese, it’s not as hard as people say it is"
Probably. Too bad, but Chinese or Spanish are much more useful IRL.
Learning language only for recreation purposes - I can't afford it.

But you can afford to waste time defending your upload?

In 2020 everybody can afford to waste time.
Also, I don't waste it and practice my English :)

Now Spc_away can transcribe all the Traditional Chinese subtitles from the Taiwanese Mandarin episodes that weren't available as Japanese .srt files, and use Google Translate to provide English subtitles for those! And maybe even do the same for the European Portuguese subtitled version if needed!

@NoraInuG, "Traditional Chinese subtitles from the Taiwanese Mandarin episodes"
Link?

Concerning Portuguese - I'm thinking about opencv/tesseract script to convert hardsubs to .srt. There're only 2 lines of texts with single font. The main problem - diacritics. Abbyy FineReader can't catch them properly.

@Spc_away Here's a link that you can use to get the Taiwanese Mandarin episodes with Traditional Chinese subtitles from bilibili, hosted in Mainland China. https://search.bilibili.com/all?keyword=%20%E7%83%8F%E9%BE%8D%E6%B4%BE%E5%87%BA%E6%89%80&from_source=nav_search_new

Are you sure that you used google translate for this?
Because checking some of the lines compared to the trash google TL shits out, your subs are significantly worse than even google TL. They're also worse than DeepL and Yandex Translate. So I'm just wondering if you really used google or if you used some other backwater MTL.
This is quite possibly the worst machine translation I've seen in a long time, and that's after experiencing a Indian changing a bunch of lines in Shin-chan that the machine translation didn't catch to "I'll make love to you".

@NoraInuG, thanks!
@Sera, I'd really appreciate if you can make something better with your "real google/DeepL/Yandex TL".
BTW, yeah, I compared episodes I GLed half a year ago, and Google now translates them much better.
Probably will do v0.0002, MU-HA-HA-HA!

Thank you for the subs man. This is pretty great
