The Ancient Magus' Bride Manga's Return Gets Simultaneous English Release Using AI Translation
(www.animenewsnetwork.com)
Anime; the one thing that gets us closer to each other and brings us together.
All spoilers must be tagged!
Exactly. There are plenty of fan subs out there that use machine translation (google) and sometimes it's close, other times ... it's beyond nonsense.
If it's a same day release they are not doing QA... Short term money grab. I wouldn't be surprised to see their subscription prices increase in 6-12 months after all their regular subs leave after bad translations
Even if they are doing QA, that's still a short term money grab imo. QA should be one of the final checks, not one of the first. And how the QA process is, is also important. If they only look at the translated version, then they can easily miss the actual mistakes made, because sentences could flow fine, but be entirely wrong. If they have the original text and have to compare, then they probably might as well translate the entire thing themselves, so it's likely the former process. I wouldn't be surprised if QA would be less motivated too if what they had to check, was machine translated.
