For one thing, two translators worked nearly independently of each other on this piece. For another, whether you choose to go with the voiced or the unvoiced version makes a huge difference. For you see, Tomo Kataoka originally wrote this piece with the intention of introducing dilemmas that are generally not explored -- although the powerful potential has probably always existed -- in this particular genre of (slightly-)interactive entertainment.\ 2037 2038^!s0~i %120 x-20 y-40~ Translator's Note (gp32)~i =0~!sd 2039br2 120 2040^We feel relatively justified in our choice to make it such that the voiced version should have one translator, and the unvoiced version should have another. The results are divergent in more than one way: at the trivial level, Peter's British, and I'm trained in American English.^@^ 2041br 2042^But beyond that, I find that our two versions read quite differently -- in some ways, radically so. At the same time, I feel that there is no incongruity in my saying that both versions are equally faithful to the text. So do as Tomo Kataoka suggests -- read the voiced version and then the unvoiced version (or vice versa, as per your preference) -- and see if you don't come away with a more complete understanding of the piece than you would have been afforded otherwise.\ 2043 2044^!s0~i %120 x-20 y-40~ Translator's Note (gp32)~i =0~!sd 2045br2 120 2046^For all the budding translators out there: it may be instructive to depack 0.txt from nscript.dat~%90~*~=0~ and see for yourself some of the different ways that two different translators might tackle the same sentence.

I have a certain amount of sympathy for that view, particularly when the game's text uses the least foreigner-friendly script in the world. But there are downsides to voicing; however good the actors, they won't match every reader's impression of the characters, and where only some characters are voiced, the voicing can disrupt the balance of a work. ~i~Narcissu~i~ voiced is about Setsumi, period. Unvoiced, it gains in breadth what it loses in depth.^@^ 2083br 2084^You may yet wonder why we chose this and not any other work for this experiment.

Otherwise, 68954;== Chihiro: "Why you?" 68955;== Setsumi: "For being kind and good." 68956;== sounds like Setsumi is claiming that Setsumi herself is kind and good, which is exactly the opposite of the point she's making. 68957;-- mmmm well here's the thing, I avoided 'because you' specifically because I didn't want to inject 'you' in there. Unless I'm mistaken, the ambiguity does exist in the japanese, though the english rendering leans towards the 'wrong' interpretation more than the original, while the '人' makes it go the other way. still, I'm loathe to sacrifice the loss of it 68958;== I'm not quite convinced there's any significant ambiguity there in the Japanese. Certainly not for the reader, who will recognise 優しくて良い人だからよ as a direct quotation of Himeko's words. And I don't think it's really ambiguous for Chihiro either, is it? -- she must realise Setsumi wouldn't say such a thing of herself. 68959;-- while I agree with that readers whould recognize it as Himeko's words, I don't think Chihiro would automatically realize that Setsumi wouldn't say such a thing about herself. It should require her half a moment's confusion to orient herself since the line falls out of thin air after she's wondering about Setsumi. if you pull out the reference to Himeko's words, which Chihiro never heard, and just come to the sentence without too much character context (since Chihiro doesn't really know Setsumi well) then I'd like to believe it's the sort of parsing mistake that would pop up... 68960;== Okay, I see what you're saying now.
