This is sun

Being a illiterate dumbass who doesn't know what is a metaphor isn't based at all.
It's just showing stupidity to the world to see.

somehow this is one of my fav hentai animations, it's badly animated but the plot is so hot i gooned to it more than most hentais ever

>>717302113 (OP)
>Translator never leaves his basement
>has the audacity to think he can shit on someone who knows what someone who has been out in the sun for a while smells like
You need to do more than touch grass.
Go smell the sun.

>>717302312
dude your post looks like a wooden barrel LMAOOO

>>717302113 (OP)
Reminder americans are so retarded they were brainwashing into thinking you need a dryer machine to dry your clothes instead of just using the sun

>>717302350
well whats the plot?

>>717302113 (OP)
Saying something smells like the sun is basically like saying it smells like a nice sunny day which does in fact have a nice smell to it if you live in a nice area.

>>717302113 (OP)
Nah this is hilarious I don't know why anyone is seething.

>>717302113 (OP)
There’s nothing wrong with that line.

>>717302113 (OP)
I don't know Japanese but I can just tell there's some correlation with the Sun and Smell that the localizer doesn't understand, or there's another word that reads like Sun as well, which means something different.
The translator is the faggot and he's being incompetent here.

>>717302442
MC does stupid thing and gets cucked.

>>717302442
well let's just say Koharu's head didn't smell like the sun for much longer

>>717302410
Yeah because why dry clothes in 30 minutes when you can dry clothes over the course of many hours depending on the weather?
Japs are fucking retarded for not using dryers I'll never understand it.

>>717302824
>seems like its there to make it overly cruel.
That's the "appeal" of netorare. You have to be legitimately mentally ill or have no self respect to get off to it. Even if you self insert as the guy doing the fucking it's just sociopathic to get off on doing that to someone who doesn't deserve it.

>>717303454
>(don't forget the absolute hysteria over air conditioners).
You mean Korea and how they think fans will kill them, or is there actually something about air conditioners I didn't know about?

Chinese (and anywhere with Chinese medicine influence) blame absolutely every illness and problem on the AC.

Cancer? You ran the AC too much.

>>717303608
its just a fact you getting off on humilation of the self insert protag (and dont even pretend you identify with the fat bastards because everything in most ntr, every angle, every line, the entire cinematagrophy is shot to facilitate that)
if you like ntr you are just a beta male getting off on your own humiliation thats just a fact fo the genre.

>>717302632
There's a disproportionate amount of men in this story compared to women. This makes me wonder about the sexuality of the guys who enjoy this.

>>717303786
>Cancer? You ran the AC too much.
considering the shit chinese factories get up to, honestly they could be right lmao

>>717303851
Netorare is inherently designed around jerking off to the idea of there being another guy involved and how he feels about it, so take a guess.

>>717303786
>Cancer? You ran the AC too much
We're not that much better

You're a fucking subhuman if you don't bathe at least once a day and put on a fresh pair of clothes after doing so.

>>717302967
I can't relate to that

>>717304457
>bathe at least once a day
You might be mentally ill. That much exposure to water and soap will melt your skin. Just use deodorant and wipe yourself down with a slightly damp towel. You only need to shower two or three times a week.

most ntr is fucking dogshit, what's the point of a massive cock if the woman takes it like a champ straight away? the CORRECT pipeline is: omfg i can't breathe help>it hurts, it hurts> i hate this it still hurts>what's this weird feeling next to the pain?>it doesn't feel good>it feels good>it feels great>omfg harder

This very effective rage bait because I am seething.

>>717304740
>smells like the sun
is a retarded idiom since you can't smell in space and the sun would burn you to a crisp if you were close enough to smell it

>>717304740
I'd take that over the activist localisers we have today injecting their own fan fiction into the script.

>>717302917
There's nothing indicating that to someone that isn't normally engaging with NTR media.

>>717304669
For me it's just how quickly the girl goes from loving, loyal wife to cock addicted slut. After getting fucking RAPED on top of it.

do you think soap n water is corrosive or something? You must really stink

Is NTR still cucked if you self-insert as the cucker?

Hate it.

>>717303851
Unironically, NTR is the one of the most gay genres of hentai. It's far more gay than futanari or genderbend even. Cucks want to get fucked by what they perceive as a superior male (note how that reads like the sissy captions they spam on /gif/) and use the girl as a surrogate for the fucking, which they self insert as.

>>717305052
you're still here..

>That era where hentai "rewrites" were becoming common
Thank fuck that shit didn't last.

literally 3 seconds search in Google:
The Japanese phrase "太陽の匂いがする" (taiyou no nioi ga suru) literally translates to "smells like the sun." It's often used to describe the pleasant, clean scent of laundry that has been dried outside in the sun, or more generally, the smell of warm, sun-drenched air. This smell is attributed to the breakdown of various compounds in the laundry or on skin by UV radiation, producing alcohols, fatty acids, and other aromatic substances.

some mf are dumb as fuck lol

>>717305459
qrd?

>>717305067
Based on lurking in NTR spaces (Kill me), most fans of NTR like that type of plot because "It shows the true nature of women: Being whores". It's projection of what they think of most women (Could be true or not, dunno, stopped caring years ago).

NTR is fine as long as its an ugly bastard because I can actually self insert with the ugly bastard

>>717302312
The sun has no fucking smell dumbass, at least not one that you could smell down here on earth.
If you wanna say she smells like a hot summer's day or a fresh spring breeze then say that, don't say "she smells like the sun" cause no one is gonna have any fucking idea what that means.

>>717305743
That just sounds like cope from losers who see a loving couple and tell themselves the girl is fucking behind his back. Sadly I've known the type of guys who dig their heels in and see all women as whores as a defense mechanism against any kind of rejection.

>>717305845

NTR is literally about being dominated by another man by proxy

Why is NTR so trased (trad/based)?

>>717306976
Ntr is unironically what happened many times in human history. The idea of vanilla romance is something that only exists in modern times. Men would just take what they wanted in ancient times.

So technically it's trad.

Read a book for once in your life

I'm guessing that is just the literal translation, yeah? Wouldn't it be more like saying "Her hair smells like a fresh spring day" or something?
I legit don't envy translators. Gotta have a lot of knowledge about both languages and their turns of phrases and embellishments. Not saying all translators should be off the hook for a bad translation but it's one of those things that will always end up making someone angry. Language is cool. It's so fucking complex. It legit fascinates me how our dumb ass monkey brains figured it out in the first place.

Most idioms are illogical. That's why they're idioms.

>>717305020
If you think how it's written now is better than "which smells like a spring breeze" or some other similar English idiom, then all I can say is thank fucking God you are not a writer.

This translator seemingly doesn't know English either. "Which smells like the sun" is a supplementary relative clause. There should be a comma before which.

Nothing wrong with drying out in the sun, it smells nicer. I love drying my bed cover outside.
>japs not using...
They do, dryers is just another option.

>all these faggots in this thread that don't know japanese
Maybe it's because it's american hours that no one intelligent is awake.
日向臭い which means hinata kusai, hinata means "sunny place" and kusai means smell and the word means something dried in the sun, usually said to rustic or rural people. It can be used both in a negative or positive way. The japanese for example love the smell of futons dried in the sun.

What the faggot protagonist is saying is that the wife smells like a nice tradwife and he loves that about her. Since this is NTR garbage it's just shitty buildup and foreshadowing of the nice traditional wife going to get corrupted.

Yeah. Just being able to convey abstract ideas as well as we do is wild. I can just beam incredibly complex information in your brain by just making sound at you. Well, in this case throwing down a lot of weird squiggles. And it's something that happens every day so we just take it for granted. I can throw a word at you that you've never even heard that means something complex and bam, you fucking learned it. It's there and can be part of your vocabulary only after hearing it once. Fucking crazy. Humans are neat.

The problem is there have been more translations that have taken liberties to be flavorful or "punchy" for the sake of its audience than accurate translations, and a drastic increase of uppity translators making their deliberate sabotage known, leading to also purposely bad translation or to correct "problematic scripts" in their own eyes. I don't envy a judge, but they CAN sentence innocent people to death. You must always call out bad decisions.

I never understand why this story format is used so much. "I'll have no problem doing the world's easiest task, but since you have good tits let me fuck you for x amount of time or until you're my cock slave. Deal?" And most of the time it's shit the instigator could get blackmailed for if the girl actually spoke to her peers.

This is only barely related to this thread but I'm translating a piece of media into English (from Brazilian Portuguese)

I want to leave the Brazilian idioms and references intact and leave a TL note, but is that going to get annoying? Should I only use .ass files so I can force the notes to the top of the screen or something? Do I have two versions of subs, one localized and without notes, one with all the "segura essa marimba"s translated literally with a TL note?

>>717312793
I dunno how well idioms translate.
If it's not porn TL notes aren't really a bother u less they're very excessive

>>717312246
It's just a means to get to the fucking.
The idea behind it is that the girl always wanted, but needed an excuse to do so.

>>717312246
The problem of writing in a corporate setting is that it has to be greenlit by executives. And if something already exists thousands of times it is very easy to sell executives.

All these writing questions can be explained by just the fact that writing as a job drains all your creativity. Imagine you are a new writer. The first 2-3 times you actually try but your writing gets refused every single time. Eventually you learn what gets approved which is just generic garbage the executives can easily understand.

>>717312793
That's up to you. Neither methodology is inherently better than the other, but I would consider what your target audience is when making such a decision.

>>717313241
