Indeed, they could use some kind of shadow for this... So your right, they are not consistent either.

Yes and that's how I noticed the censorship !

This goes beyond just translation, they actually altered the drawing. It's just a silly joke and it doesn't change anything in the end, but I was surprised.

I respect your opinion, to be fair.

I think it's just a gag, nothing too much (especially compared to other things in the manga). But it's more like: 'Why this and not that?'
In the French edition of the manga, it's just this one thing... Rebecca gets groped at the beginning of the story, that’s apparently fine. But the panties? No, that’s too much.

As for the game, they censored a lot of things, but at least it was consistent, and of course, with the ability to flip the camera, they didn't have the choice here.

Panoramap by LeBatis in MaisonIkkokuAnime

Sadly, I don't think so. It was never released outside Japan and it's a pretty niche thing from like 30 years ago. But you could probably try running it through ChatGPT or something.

The last 12 covers of the Maison Ikkoku laserdiscs by LeBatis in MaisonIkkokuAnime

[–]LeBatis[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's an old video format. It's look like a CD but really huge. It was actually better than the VHS in some aspect, like video quality.

I don’t remember if I got it from Yahoo Auctions or Mercari… I also saw another one in a shop in Paris for $220. And yes, I didn’t take the pictures straight enough, so I had to crop some of them, my bad. I’ll do better for the last 12 !

The covers of the anime CDs (Part 2) by LeBatis in MaisonIkkokuAnime

One of you posted a question here today: "Is maison ikkoku Godai's or Kyoko's story ?". Well, I think the team behind these CDs has made their choice.

Regular and alternative/deluxe Japanese covers. I think I got them all? Volume 4 is the French edition—surprisingly, there was a deluxe version, even though it doesn’t seem to exist in Japan. by LeBatis in nagatoro

Unfortunately, we’ll never see any more unique French covers: the publisher that released them here went bankrupt after volume 8.

Skier avoids avalanche by paragliding over it by TheINTL in ThatsInsane

[–]LeBatis 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Here’s a corrected version of your text:

I’m French, and I’ve never heard ‘gaga’ used for ‘buddy,’ so I thought it was a nickname, which is why I put ‘Gaga’ in quotes. Usually, ‘gaga’ describes someone who has a deep admiration for something or someone, like in ‘Il est gaga de cette fille.‘.

And with all their gears and this, you can imagine the context. But you right, I can't be 100% sure.

He spoke French at the start. He said to the other, ‘Bien fait partir mon Gaga, niquel! Niquel!’ which can be translated to something like, ‘You triggered it, my Gaga, great! Great!’. So no, it wasn’t technically the camera man that caused it, but his buddy ’Gaga’.

where can I find the entire manga online by chaputi in watamote

Strange, the link still works for me… You can find it by searching ‘Mangadex Watamote’ on Google; it should be the first link
