The only exception to this rule is Tonari no Totoro. Everyone knows what movie that means in any language.
Yea but then I‘d just call it Totoro because everyone will still get it. Same with Mononoke.
Agreed, but it frustratingly makes the series Mononoke more difficult to talk about, because you always have to say "mononoke, not princess"
Good series btw
What does it mean
Fist of the North Star
What? I thought it was a code word for tentacle porn??? 😰
No it's one of like 3 things in Japanese that doesn't mean that. But it can be code for school girl porn which is what most of the rest of the language is.
If you seriously asking this, it translates to ‘My Neighbor Totoro’ in english
Mononoke Hime seems pretty obvious.
Only if you already speak Japanese, or are a weeb who's figured out that hime=princess
Mononoke seems fairly distinct.
I mean there is a show called Mononoke, but I guess the average person who wouldn't recognize that hime=princess probably doesn't know it exists
That's fair enough.
