I understand Incel nowadays is just the 2020 version of calling someone a virgin but they aren't the same

>>280262838
They aren't. inceldom is much more than not having a sex. even older virgins aren't incels. inceldom is an ideology based around self-soothing behaviors like blaming external factors for internal struggles, for example
>it's not my fault I'm fat and ugly and don't shower regularly, I just have bad genetics
>it's not my fault there are no women falling over me it's the chads who took them all
>it's not my fault "females" go for the abusive assholes instead of "nice" guys like me, women's suffrage made them this way

Not getting laid doesn't mean you're an incel

>>280263163
Congrats on having managed to live so long in spite of your dysgenic disposition

>>280262297 (OP)
That's not the full sentence.
I agree incel is a bad translation, but she's specifically saying she targets boys who are insecure about their virginity, because she likes to tease them about it.
But incel is a derogatory term and they wouldn't be using it in this context.

>>280262297 (OP)
Top one is more sovlful.

>>280262838
>all incels are virgins
The irony with this post is comical. You are looking at the world in black and white just like how incels do. Incel for the most part is an age thing, men these days graduate and when they graduate many of them are at the lowest point in their life, they are inexperienced and now have to get a job meanwhile they see women graduate and live off onlyfans and they don't think this is fair and shit like this turns many men into incels thinking all women are like this and whores which isn't true (they look at the world in black in white just like you are with your post) as these men grow older and gain more world experience they come to realize this thus they stop being incels

The subs I watched didn't have that line.
Femcels really shouldn't be the one to cast stones though considering the story is about a femcel vampiress grooming a 15 year old boy to literally kill himself because she's an undead pedophile promising eternal damnation, an abomination that deserves naught but Our Lord's holy crucifix shoved in her face and dispatched by stake or flamethrower AMEN

It's cringey and amateurish, like it was done by a 12 year old. If I was the director I'd want to kill this translator for ruining their art. It's safe slang too which is worse. They will literally mistranslate shit to work around more offensive slang nowadays, but this shit stays? Huh?

Don't you want something engaging?

claude weighs in

>>280262297 (OP)
Incel type detected

>>280266771
>claude is stupid
The real answer is because good translators get cancelled and so only cringe and "safe" women and faggots translate shit without powerful language that actually means something.
So the translation ends up:
>boring and monotonous
>full of meme words for viral spread reasons and because it's these translators equivalent of being "clever"

It's not clever, it's fucking repugnant, robotic and dumb. It's like that teacher at school that tries to be "with it" with the kids kind of stupid.
And it's no wonder why translators often get caught simply making up shit to try and put in their "cool" memespeak.

>>280266787
You know incel is offensive to rape victims right?
I know that translator doesn't know.

>>280266757
I don't know, patronizing weeabo, I like the nightly theme and the girls are pretty, I don't seek "engagement" in my romcoms (I've watched a lot of stuff between Love Hina and Kanokari). I was a day-0 watcher for S1 and I grew kinda attached

>>280266943
I have to wonder if part of it is good translators have better things to do, so translation is kind of a bottom of the barrel job.

>>280267027
It is.

>>280267027
The good translators are working in more important things, like legal and medical shit. Pay is better and the work is ironically easier.

>>280267010
>patronizing weeabo
I haven't watched anime for ages and part of it is cringey boring writing and even more cringey boring translation.
I want powerful writing that fucking mean something. Not fluttery hagmemes like "incel" which sound like a bureaucratic concatenation of words with a terribly narrow scope and repugnant sounding phonetics (i.e. made to sound dull and office-y/legal/empirical shit).

What's worse is that AI somehow is better at avoiding this because it has a more intelligent linguistic IQ than most of these translators. It is literally built on linguistics.

>>280267180
>The good translators are working in more important things, like legal and medical shit.
I fucking wish, they disenchant and make the language even more banal than anime translations.
t. I've read too much of that shit IRL.

>>280266943
Incel detected. That's perfect translation and you just wanna pretend that nip dont live in the same world as we do.

I miss the days when translators actually had explanations of what the slang in Japan meant to Japanese people. Sayounara zetsubou sensei had so many tongue in cheek Kanji and other esoteric jokes in it that it's virtually untranslatable simply to the point where they actually had translations going through what was going on with the pun.

That was way better than cheesy nonsensical localisations that make up shit. It taught me shit about japanese language, japanese humour, japanese culture that a localisation just will never do.
For me, that was part of the fun with anime translations back in the day of fansubs. They loved explaining that shit. I loved learning about that shit.

Nowadays, that shit is fucking gone and people simply just don't understand how Japanese people are again. For a while there it seemed like we were finally getting to know each other.
Bad localisations put me into despair!

>>280267434
the audience being normalfaggots caused this

>>280266771
So it is unicorns

>>280267434
SZS had a dedicated fansubber that added several minutes of explanations at the end of each episode on top of the notes during the ep. You don't find localisations like that in modern AI-subbed anime.

I still think that "incel" was the perfect localisation for OP's image though.

>>280267219
You type and think like an underage facebook user.

>>280262563
dumb nigger lol

>>280267918
>I still think that "incel" was the perfect localisation for OP's image though.
It works if you work within the Western context, it doesn't work if you keep the fact these are supposed to be vampires preying on Japanese in mind.

Like if you had a later story where Midori's targets are nice to her, it doesn't work because the whole point of inceldom is the hate for women as such.
The closest thing for Japanese is forever alone types. But it's A) gender neutral and B) doesn't really focus on the sex aspect as anyone can drop 20k yen and legally fuck/get fucked in their city's red district.
It's a much, much milder version of the jelly bean donut thing.

>>280268132
The only way you fags wouldn't mald about this if they would've used an anglism like インセル. And if you described someone as "guy who obsesses over their virginity" many would think "oh so like an incel?". I can guarantee you that Asia has its incels too, that concept is not lost on them.
>hate for women
The dictionary definition of "incel" mentions possibility of misogyny and hatred of other sex-having men, but it's not a requirement. Just being desperate for sex and not getting it is enough.

>>280268132
I know what you're saying, but does English have a gender specific word for virginity for men? I don't think a specific shojo/doutei equivalent exists.

>>280262614
Niggas use nigger all the time on their media
Is just white chuds who are jealous they can't use it without crucifixion.

I thought the incel word kind of died off a while ago though. Kind of weird seeing it show up in anime of all things. Kind of makes you wonder just how weird the TL has to be to still be using it daily.

>75% of the thread is just that one mentally ill trannylator samefagging and well-poisoning in the very specific, recognizable way, just as he did in every single /a/ thread where the issue of bad subs has been brought up in the past 5 years.

Which is funny because the only people that use it seem to have a hate for men. Bit of irony there.

Pic related. It's what I see when anybody uses the word online.

>>280270125
I use the word incel and I like men. There's nothing wrong with calling out incel behavior, stop taking it as a personal attack against you.
>the whole point of inceldom is the hate for women as such.
This is false, you can be an incel without hating women, though a warped relationship towards opposite sex is certainly likely. That's what obsession with getting laid does to a person.

That's you. Your the cringelord that pretends in class that he's fucking 20 chicks a day. Why else would you attention whore to this specific subject manner by using that term? Why do you use it? To boast about how much dick you suck?

The only users of it are attention-whores that lie about how much sex they get because they are insecure about it.

you won't be able to kill the word anymore, it has spread to normalfag culture and is here to stay. just give up and move on.

>>280270876
I didn't even watch the show. You can tell from random clips. The main cast of women are all vampires stronger than the average men. They're all promiscuous whores. The main guy is a weak bitch. It's a feminist show.

>>280270813
As anon said, this is hardly an uncommon way of using "-complex" and on that note, I'm perfectly certain English don't talk about NaniNani-chans and magical girls, jinjas, etc. which are all commonplace in anime.

yes, there obviously is a power inbalance in the relationships, that's the whole point. That however doesn't make the series inhereintly political, it simply shows us awful relationships and their consequences.

>>280270813
Virgin complex can be taken as having a complex with one's own virginhood (i.e., incels) or being obsessed with fucking virgin girls.

Power imbalances can be fun.

virgin complex sounds like how people are too scared to say "retarded" and say intellectually disabled instead

童貞 isn't really feminist lingo. If she started talking about 非モテ弱者男性、チー牛、インセル etc. like Japan's many twitter feminists do it would be pretty close.

I wouldn't recommend getting groomed irl though

>280271017
Weak bait, anon.

The MC has a relationship with a tomboy who is just as flustered and confused about her first love as he is.
The girls (and boy) are trying to nudge them together.
Literally peak I wish this happened to me fantasy.

Did I mention the other tomboyish childhood friend with big honkers who's also a bit into MC but is a great bro about the fact the vampiress is the one who makes his heart go doki doki.
Why does it seem like this thread attracts a ton of baiters and explicit shitposters?

>>280271171
That's actually a good point.
In that case, I like "Midori's into guys who've let being a virgin mess them up" or something similar.

It doesn't have to be, but it very often is, and it would have been best to word it in a way that wouldn't be interpreted as having political connotations that did not exist in the original JP line.
And given the recent history of localizations, it is not entirely unreasonable to assume the word was actually chosen specifically for its political connotations.

Incel isn't as simple as not having lost virginity. inceldom is extremely disgusting state of mind. even without going off about what they believe in and so on, it's self-defeatist. even if incel goes around and fucks some prostitute, he will remain incel despite having lost virginity.

>>280271984
It's also a way to derail discussion and hijack whole threads, making normal discussion of the series impossible. This thread was obviously doomed from the start due to OP. Hopefully the schizos will move on and recover from the trauma of being called the i-slur in future threads (sadly unlikely)

>>280272045

>>280264214

You are using a warped retarded female definition of incel.

Incel means quite simply, an involuntary celibate. It not an ideology, thats just retarded women who politicized it, it is a state of being. Technically, calling all male virgins incels is closer to the actual definition of the word.

>>280271999
>>280272032
No

>>280272045
I mean sure, you can lose your virginity to a prostitute and remain a creep, but if you still have hangups about sex at that point then it might be deeper mental illness. It's normal to pay for sex, and feeling guilt or inferiority for that is stupid. Sex is sex.

Can the cretins and troons stop trying to act like their opinion is superior when Seri was referring to Kou, a 14yo boy who barely understands his own feelings? Only this >>280269117 anon pointed that out but apparently it's a complete anomaly for a teenager in his early puberty to not have had sex yet.

>>280272170
Or, you know, we could just discuss the localization like gentlemen and not get butthurt about it.

>>280272296
It's a short story set during the timeskip, that's all it is and it's not going to retcon the ending

>>280272437
>it's not going to retcon the ending
I didn't expect it to.
>during the timeskip
Aw. I was hoping it was after the ending.

>uh oh incel melty

>entire conversation and context for the entire episode is about the fact that he doesn't even understand what its like to fall in love
I fucking hate you people, trying to twist virgin complex in the sense that he is basically voluntarily celibate and not ready for sex let alone love into incel because you think the word sounds cool or some shit. So fucking lame.

>>280272430
>discuss the localisation
>"reeeee trannylator trannylator everything is ruined because of one word 0/10 my masculinity has been wounded"
no thanks
You should've seen the early Hundred Line threads, that localization made one tranny reference (technically so did the original) and some anon just couldn't let it go. He kept spamming it in every thread and samefagging his own posts endlessly. Even tried to force a mayhem on twitter so he could get featured by Assmongoloid.

>>280272640
Didn't the localization of that game use fucking "egg"?

Post more cute dorkpires.

>>280272640
Guess what anon. This screenshot was taken from a Twitter grifter and includes wrong information, fragmented incomplete sentence, not presenting the original for comparison or posting a source on which company posted this shit when apparently Hidive/CR use "virgin" You're already in a rage bait thread, what are you surprised everyone here is retarded?

>>280272677
oh god you've heard of it
Funny thing is, I think 90% of people would've missed that detail if that one schizo didn't make a scene out of it. Not like every normal person is informed with what "egg" means in a certain community. HL has like 200+ hours worth of reading too.

>>280263087
>>280262563
Incel is used for grown up men who desperately try to get laid but are not able to. Virgin is much broader term and includes young inexperienced men as well, who she targets as well but could never be described as incels. Like the protag.

>>280272805
>Not like every normal person is informed with what "egg" means in a certain community
Which is why you shouldn't fucking use it on a localization to begin with.

Seems like some anons are still successful at trolling on /a/ without getting banned.
The culture isn't lost.

>>280272808
Yeah desu the series goes into detail with differences between boys and their level of "experience". Like how different vampires attract different types of men.

>>280272853
I'm all for easter "eggs" in translations if they cause massive melties among certain people. It's always entertaining.

>>280262297 (OP)
In our society sex has been hyped up to such a retarded degree that I actually felt a bit disappointed after I had it for the first time lel

>>280273099
That's because sex isn't special, it's the factors surrounding it, like who, where, what context you're doing it under that matter. Making love with your girlfriend is going to be more holistically satisfying than fucking a cheap whore, even if the whore is more skilled.

>>280269643
Creepy Nuts is popular with normie foid and negroid anime youtube reactors and /a/nons here are habitual contrarians. Just ignore them and they will resume beating their wizard staffs to lolicon doujins.

Kill all localizers. Literal translations only. If you do not accept this, you are literal fucking cancer, kill yourself you subhuman faggots.

The only valid translation of OP is:
>Green regarding virgin.

>>280273768
(About green virgin is also acceptable)

>>280273768
>>280273813
there's no such thing as a literal translation, and the character's name is Midori (which happens to mean green)

>>280273614
you really think there are sensitive bitches in only one side of the political spectrum?

>>280262317
fpbp, trvke, /thread etc.

>>280273838
Wrong.

>>280273768
now translate the full sentence and not just half of it >>280263966

>>280273768
>>280273813
>>280273838
Her name uses katakana, it's Midori. Using green is an incorrect literal translation.

>>280262563
no the point is Midori has a fetish for fresh man meat, so in her view it isn't negative. so making it incel is unnatural.

>>280262297 (OP)
What's bad about this localization is that it implies she goes after losers rather than young boys, which is a completely different group.

>>280273934
If it's katakana then it's a phoenetic style name and therefore "Midley"

>>280273997
I guess trolling is an art form

>>280273838
Her name is officially written in kana, not 緑 which is probably what this dekiru >280269397 was hinting at.

>>280274022
sorry, that's what I was trying to say too, but failed to get the point across

>>280274022
Damn, that's Midori, I'm lying and telling her I'm a virgin. Fuck.

>>280274049
>Woe is me, I'm such a virgin, it's a shame there isn't a hot vampire girl to steal it from me.

>>280273931
Easy.

Regarding Midori virgin made worse guy specifically regarding target is after.

This is the superior, clean and literal translation. Anything that deviates is translocation and therefore bad.

>>280262297 (OP)
>incel; involuntary celibate
Depending on the context, wouldn't this still be a correct term? Unless she's using as an insult the person she mentions as targeting virgins would also be incels?

>>280274179
Is that even English? I have trouble grasping what that sentence is trying to say. 0/10 translating, try again

>>280274226
yes but we're all /pol/babies here and our feelings are hurt

>>280274309
I have a fever and the only cure is sex with vampires that target men with virgin complexes, i.e. literally me.

>>280274274
how new are you that you dont recognize japanese translated "literally"?

>>280274226
She's talking about a teenager.

>>280274378
Let's get real stupid and start arguing semantics that technically all teens are incels because they're compelled to act under the law which forbids sex until they're of a certain age.

>>280263915
Yeah.

>>280274360
A good translation has to be comprehensible. Japanese and English have different grammar, so just literally switching words without also arranging them in a coherent serntence is bad translating. jfc and it's people like you who screech endlessly over one localised word, but can't do shit yourselves.

>>280274455
As a former teen, I'd claim that teens are bigger incels because they're more hormonal and more prone to peer pressure.

>>280274574
my guy, im just poiting out you are falling for a bit here lmao.
"literal" translations or the lack of any translation are a running joke. remember, TL's note: keikaku means plan.

>>280274782
>just pretending to be retarded
sure thing

>>280274628
As a former incel, I was always told to grow up. Therefore it must naturally be associated with being young.

>>280274852
恥ずかしいよね？大丈夫、笑ったりしないよ

>>280265080
Not surprised that 2 lines of text qualify as an article for you.
I'll assume your virgin = incel equivalence is bait, since things like chastity exist, but the density of your errors warrants to at least correct the other things.
For one, you assume for me to feel the need to say a word to insult you, when I didn't position myself to align with that perception and only insulted you for being a logically incongruent retard.
Secondly, you can just write the word out instead of promoting censorship, since more studies than you can count (timothy williamson 2009, flaisch 2008, wiktor soral 2024) came to the conclusion that words require context to trigger emotional responses and that the amygdala largely stays silent when you read about or hear slurs instead of experiencing the situation itself.
You're emphasizing the taboo of a word and sacralizing it to a degree that causes more harm by lessening exposure (which has been shown to decrease physical response and offense taken) and mystifying it, which will lead people to use it in more offensive contexts, such as in the name of counter culture and equality (in group slurs dont work by eroding boundaries and moral consistency - wong 2024, matilde graziano 2024).
About the localization - you're diluting meaning by equating words when they have distinct meanings for a reason and the author has intentions when choosing them.
Incel differs from virgin in the translation in tonal context and intention of the character, giving her a more youthful and altruistic undertone instead of the predatory one that prevails when calling them virgins (
who are associated with inexperience and innocence instead of the unreciprocated desire for physical contact).

Imagine writing a whole essay about your virginity lmaooo

Is your problem, retard. Western trannylators are grabbing more and more power in these mediums by the day. They already have a stranglehold on Japanese video game development at large companies like Nintendo and Sega, where they get to censor dialogue and character designs at the source.
It's only a matter of time until it starts affecting anime and manga more than it already is too. We already got confirmation from ex-Jump directors in the last year or so that they had to censor and tone shit down to appease westerners.

>>280273285
You wouldn't be making this argument if the localization was dunking on sluts, trannies, etc., be honest.

>>280275805
There would never be an /a/ thread malding profusely at someone making fun of sluts or trannies, because the local sluts and trannies don't care. But the incels here are as soft as dough.

>>280274628
Not how the word works, however, the word incel would be appropriate in noticing that virginity rates in male teenagers have spiked in recent years due to noteworthy societal shifts.

reminds of me the trails of daybreak game where the main character van talked about one of the main characters being trans when that was never mentioned in the original kanji

>>280275900
>There would never be an /a/ thread
You're right because you and your subhuman friends would be on twitter instead.

>>280275900
Bullshit argument that can easily be debunked by checking out desuarchive

>>280275907
incel means involuntarily celibate
there have always been incels, and just because there are more incels now it doesn't change the definition

>>280275913
haha

>>280275913
That whole franchise was cooked from the first game. Estelle was overly localized in English

>>280275900
You would be seething here, as well as elsewhere, faggot. Keep spamming your "a-a-actually you guys are the s-snowflakes" cope since it makes you a little less insecure.
People have every right to complain about maliciously ruined products.

>>280275994
I'm sure there's someone larping as a tumblrite just for (You)s if you look hard enough
But threads like this? You can't fake this. This thread is like a deep dive into incelness, and the societal consequences of some careless translation labeling all virgins as incels. I think you guys should start a social justice movement to channel your outrage, then maybe incels will finally get human rights and fair representation!

>>280276040
the word incel has an objective meaning, involuntary celibate. Many use the word incorrectly to refer to volcel. I doubt the localization retard is using the word in its objective meaning.

However, it became a politically loaded word because retards are afraid of the implications of the word, regarding female behavior, society, and sexual dynamics so the meaning is intentionally being warped to act like it refers to certain attitudes, ideas and ideologies that are a reaction from an online incel community. The attempt is to demonize the word, and its a word that more and more men find themselves in.

>>280276211
They have a right to be mad, its a politically loaded translation.

More over, they absolutely should behave like this if they want to empower themselves. You think these faggot words managed to capture institutions and achieve power because these faggots tried to use logical debate and free speech to convince people to their side? You ever notice they started winning battles the moment they stopped acting like their enemies behave in good faith?

>>280276210

>>280276371
Yaay male empowerment! About time, my oppressed brothers. What should we call the hashtag? #MenToo maybe?

>>280276374
Another word that lost all meaning, "ragebait", aka tourist trannybabble for "people discussing things I like in a negative way".
>more retarded babble
It is malicious, it's a maltranslation purely motivated by personal politics, by mentioned SJWs. Trying to play the epic reddit centrist troll isn't really working after spamming their talking points the whole thread, try again.
And the issue isn't the word, it's the fact it's a complete fanfic rewrite done purely for personal feelings. It's malicious, it's destructive and disrespectful to the IP. They're actively ruining someone else's work.

>>280277070
They still didn't need to add it, it makes the translation unnecessarily political for no reason.

>>280277215
They needed to translate the こじらせた part to something, or else Kou wouldn't be able to point out that it applies to him and get offended about it in the next part.

Midori would love the anons in this thread

>>280277250
So they made up some shit and decided to fuck with what could have been perfectly translated without it?

>>280277061
A translation ought to be as neutral as possible, and the word "incel" has unavoidable political connotations, no matter how badly you want to sweep it under the rug. Having to use Fancy Autocomplete to justify your argument is just the icing on the cake.

And the term exists as a loanword in Japanese, so the translator is effectively adding an element that alters the whole meaning of the original: https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/インセル

>>280277215
I think the argument that "incel" has baggage is reasonable, but this is a pretty faithful and complete translation. If anything, it seems like you're suggesting that they should avoid translating part of it because it hurt your feelings.

>>280277307
damn anon you're really upset over the i-word huh

>>280276921
Not so much circles as it is 2 brick walls shouting at each other and most likely a couple of uninvolved people with megaphones standing behind them shouting to keep it going I guess.
It can't be helped though can it, it's like 2 separate universes colliding. There is no way to solve an issue where both groups either completely believe they are correct or are at the very least willing to lie through their teeth that they are correct.
There can never be a resolution ever.

The translation in question is Netflix's.
I think we can at least all agree upon the following, translation aside:
Fuck Netflix

>>280277307
Have you been following the thread?
童貞 - virgin (statement of fact)
童貞こじらせた - virgin but "made complicated"

so what do you do as an english translator?
"Virgin" - leaves out information
"Incel" - Kinda gets it across but the term has western baggage
"Virgin Complex" - no one talks this way and is ambiguous
"Guys who are weird about their virginity" - maybe?

There is no such thing as a literal translation, and the two languages don't always match 1:1, hence the 300 posts about one line.

>>280277430
This but because they licensed Kaoru Hana only to leave it unsubbed until September. Fuck em.

>>280277440
>but the term has western baggage
Got adopted in Japanese as well. See >>280277330.

Out of all the options, Hi-Dive's "frustrated virgin" is the most decent translation for "童貞こじらせた"

Even AI knows better. It's a dogshit translation through and through regardless of the feminist-tinged "incel" or "frustrated virgin". "Virgin complex" is closer, but in this context it's also because his life is not normal anymore due to his involvement with the vamp, which is why his virginity situation is "all fucked up".
Cope.

>>280262563
>not all virgins are incels
Except they literally are, so you can't win. The keyword being "literally", as it is in the word. So incel is a catch-all to shit on people because women argue with holes playing centerpiece to the conversation.

>>280278213
That's a lot of words to mean absolutely nothing at all. It doesn't even translate the full sentence.

>>280278349
Not the anon, but the difference between virgin complex and frustrated virgin is that it is an objective choice to strive for a low quality replacement that does not cover the entire scope of the original word for seemingly no reason other than you personally don't like how it reads. It technically works out in this situation, but won't work out in every situation, and meaning will be lost to the discerning eye. However changing it to that at least makes it only a minor translation problem among the sea of translation problems within this show and many other shows this season.
The reason I hate these threads is that they get my hope up, but then I remember that people only care about this one line, and not the other hundred lines within the same show that are just as bad, because those lines didn't offend them.

She's right, but it doesn't matter. We will live to see AI produce translations on par with the good translator and taking everyone's jobs.

Coming off the heels of Otonoke I really like how subdued this OP is. Really fits the feelings of nostalgia and regret in this arc.

He's right, though. The only things you can really do are watch the subs you want to, criticize foreign interference and questionable to directors in Japanese (or at least using a reliable translator), and vote with your wallet/word of mouth.

No teenager does that.

Most virgins are worried about their virginity so there's no reason to add any "complexes" or other shit.

Despite what incels believe in this echo chamber, they are not a majority.

>>280284893
probably cause originally animu was made by japanese leftists/commies, who were rejected by their workforce for being losers and had no better ways to support themselves. tezuka was a leftist for example, you can see that in his old works like blackjack.

>>280298076
This is such a stupid take holy shit. Mutts should stop applying their understanding of left/right/capitalism/communism to other cultures they clearly don't understand. There is no serious communist movement in Japan, and even their leftist movements are usually one-topic activism like anti-sekuhara or pro-gay marriage.

You idiots are so fucking retarded. We already have a term for this.

It's called cherry boy.

and he sure as shit isnt an incel but had a huge complex about being a virgin

Midori likes virgin girls too as well. She goes much harder to girls than boys.

Definitely better than incel at least

This is not an involuntarily celibate person (incel), you fucking retard.

it is an anomaly to coombrained troons, who base their entire personality around sex and being diddled while they were kids which turned them into sexual deviants.

>>280278723
>incel shotas
Terrible. A shota is by definition a boy. Someone who hasn't even entered puberty yet, and therefore doesn't even know what it it feels like to have any kind of desire for sex in the first place, let alone the rage and hatred incels feel for not being able to satisfy their desire to have sex.

>>280295390
Is there a specific name for these types of eyes? I find it hot.

>>280301575
Sanpaku eyes, tho this is a very exaggerated anime version of it.

>>280301575

>>280262297 (OP)
>>280278647
The boy is 14 years old and has been a virgin for 14 years. But he doesn't want to lose his virginity. So even though he has a long and chronic virginity of 14 years, he doesn't want to lose it. So he's not involuntarily celibate, he's voluntarily celibate. He is not desperately looking to have sex like the incels. He is not bitter and does not hate women like the incel.
So the translation as incel is WRONG, it's just another feminists' sleight of hand putting their ideology in a series that has nothing to do with their complexes.

>>280298302
>>280272422
Why are you two engaging in this whole both-sides-are-le-equally-baaaad charade when it's clear that your own conclusion for what the proper translation should be falls into the same camp as the people criticizing the trannylators?
You're not some special snowflake who is smarter than everyone else, even if your post makes it clear you think of yourself as such.

>>280302363
My dude do you go around middle schools calling the boys there incels because they aren't fucking anyone? Actually don't answer that, I'd rather not know if you're a fucking pedo.

You can pretend to claim like it's all about objectivity all you want, but sooner or later (typically sooner) the mask comes off. The mask always slips so easily with you cunts.

Too bad the definition of incel changed from a useful "involuntarily celibate" to a useless synonym for "misogynist". Funnily enough the word was coined by a female "incel".

>>280302534

>>280302936
>Incel implies [...] a broader sense of involuntary social exclusion
>Implies judgement about their worldview
You're a retard for needing to use an AI to find out what incel means, to use it to try and argue your case and to not realise that it is heavily tainted by the poisonous literature of feminists who keep trying to use it as a pejorative because everything is about sex when it comes to women.

>>280303467
Incel is not just about sex, its about a personal lifestyle/social standing. If you just want it to be about sex, thats dotei or virgin. Thats just sex stuff. Incel is a loaded term. Often political. West is fucked.

>>280303789
>its about a personal lifestyle/social standing
>It's a political term.

>>>/r9k/3682792
>Behaviors associated with involuntary celibacy can include self-absorption and an unhealthy preoccupation with sexual activities, which is a backlog of sexual arousal that can have an adverse effect on social interactions.
Meanwhile, internal consequences that can have external manifestatrs in an incel person tend to follow the standard sexual frustration pattern of being tense, irritable, belligerent and to have trouble sleeping; mood swings; perpetual agitation; stress; and anxiety.
As I said, you keep trying to define the term in the pejorative fashion used by a certain crowd ("you have right-wing views, you must be an incel!") and ignoring that its true meaning has nothing to do with that. See the above from one of the first instances it was posted on this website.

>>280302935
The first thread was fine. This one chose an unfortunate OP image.

>manic pixie dream dorkpire

>>280263966

>>280270535
Having a modern vampire and teenager say sus, incel, etc isn't inserting a political idea into the work. It's replacing the the way a teenager would talk in one language with the way one would talk in ours.

Damn. /a/ really do be treating anime the way Independent Baptists treat the Bible.

>>280264214
Go back reddit you subhuman filth. You're the same type of faggot who calls others losers while being a loser himself.

>>280262838
It has lost all meaning. The term nowdays is mainly used by leftoids to describe any kind of """misogynistic""" men.

>>280307778
As they should.

That exactly what happend you stupid faggot. Maybe you lack self awareness to see that.

>>280262614
>black and nigger mean the same thing too by that logic
no. incel and virgin aren't complete synonyms

>>280304553
Also kind of counterintuitive, considering most incels are on the left side of the political spectrum. That’s what baffles these retards.

>>280272437
I stopped reading it and put it on my backlog what happened in the ending that pissed everyone off?

>>280282414
You don't belong on this site if you want to have the same opinion as twitter. Get off /a/ or learn to have the right opinion.

And because you hold the wrong opinion, you defend this localization trainwreck. No tourist, its not untranslatable. The localizer is being political by using a politically loaded words. Chronic virgin, cherry boy, virgin, these work better.

>>280312143
Chronic virgin is edging towards incel so only cherry boy and virgin would work.

Sadly tourists and the equivalent of trolls remorse but for being an anime fan infest everywhere now plus they wish to go on little moral crusades to shit up the hobby

>>280274959
Appreciate the sources, they were interesting reads.

>>280312336
>cherry boy
Now this would have been a cute translation.

>>280312800
I have never heard the term before, though, so I'm not sure it would have been a good translation.

>>280302363
Both sides are le same is actually just one side trying to demonize the other side. Its a bad faith argument.

So the bad translation side knows that by having bad translations and not being shamed for it, they can empower and try to change society. They deeply fear the side that calls them out for bad translations and shame them for it, because it disempowers them. However, its a fact that this is a bad translation, and its telling that you are engaging in so much effort to defend a bad translation.

>>280302935
That's what happens when people obsessed with politics actively seek to find controversy.

>>280278257
>except they literally are
Uh, no? Incel is short for INvoluntarily CELibate. A virgin is someone who hasn't had sex yet.
All incels are virgins.
Not all virgins are incels.
Learn the difference

>>280264214
>inceldom is an ideology

>>280309959
a car driver calling other car drivers car drivers doesn't make him wrong. it means he can spot others of the same profession without feeling so ashamed that he'd pretend car driving doesn't exist to make himself feel better.

>>280264214
>inceldom is an ideology
Let me guess you watch shows like adolescent and get idea of what inceldom is right?

>oh no no noooo i-word!
God, anti-snowflakes are such snowflakes

>>280314895
You can have had sex in your life before and still be an incel.

>>280316222
The issue is that you don't acknowledge the fact that there are real problems on the other side, which is what led them down that path. But all you do is demonize them, creating a negative feedback loop. You can't fix any problem by just barking at it from within your echo chamber.

I think this season is about as good as it gets for the drama part of yofukashi (the mahiru shit was very drawn out) and it has a good timed ending but season 3 will have some good action if they make it

>>280262614
I mean, yeah.
If the character is speaking in a dismissive tone about a black people, and that language doesn't have a slur equivalent, you would just use "nigger" or "negro" or "spook".
Obviously doesn't happen because that scenario has never happened (outside that one chapter from Hokuto no Ken back in the shitty scanlation days), but if one were to translate the dismissive, insulting tone that could be applied to "virgin", you would equate it to "incel" in English parlance.

>>280302218
>putting their ideology in a series that has nothing to do with their complexes.
You're watch an anime targeted towards tiktok using teenagers.

Thanks for informing me. I thought about subscribing to HI dive so I can watch week to week because, well . . . who gives a fuck about 10$, but now based on principal I will go out of my way to pirate every episode individually as well as again once the season is finished.

Post more dorkpire.

>>280317854
i wasn't the guy you were talking to, but your post only works if the other side is actually receptive to it. most people are too prideful or too stuck up in their ideals, they don't want to hear someone pointing out their problems, so they will plug their ears and scream to avoid learning about those, and any attempts to talk to them about that will just result in them calling you a racist, a bigot or some other nonsense imagined word to deflect.
>there's no problem with me! the guy who was talking was just some bigot racist incel, so he's wrong wrong WRONG REEEEE!!!
at which point you might as well insult them or fuck with them. they cease to be people when they lose their ability to converse, they become objects of entertainment.

Incels are losers yes, they don't do anything and drag themselves even more down. They drag others down along with them, crab in a bucket. Not all virgins are incels. Most incels are also brown IRL so that might lead to why they are retarded
