Whenever I hear that word I have to think about the project versioning system
- Well, Torvalds said he always names his projects after himself.
- In my piece of the world in addition to these meanings, it also means get
  
  To with the versioning system in my head, it's always

Nice bum.
- Innit
- Look at the baps on 'er.
I love this in general but I especially love that it works whether read from left to right like English usually is or right to left like manga usually are 😄
- 🤯
Here's my hot take:

This isn't any worse than manga misspelling words to show a character has an accent.

Beatrix Amerhauser is what made me stop reading Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead.
- This isn’t any worse than manga misspelling words to show a character has an accent.
  
  So, to provide some context, a couple of years ago, this specific manga got really, really popular on reddit's r/manga subreddit, and a bunch of fan translator groups picked it up. It was released on Twitter one page at a time, and at a certain point the number of translations got so out of hand that people eventually started making parody translations of it. This is one of those parody translations.
You don’t really appreciate Manga until you’ve read in the original American.
British people shouldn't be allowed. Like in general
- Well, you know where we are if you ever want to put in a formal complaint.
  
  Nnnnice try, lobsterback, but you won't trick me into stepping foot on that sopping, moldy island. Islands are supposed to be tropical paradises and you defy nature witb your very existence.
- Having been made to live in England for 2 years by the US Government. I agree.
- Right out.
I would advocate for localization but I’d never read that shit outside a goof.
On the contrary, I want more of it done in British comedy similar to the 1980s version of Lum the Space Invader (urusei yatsura) because of how amazing it was. I think they only did maybe an episode or two from what I remember when I looked it up hoping they had more, but it was like if the Ghost Stories dub took itself a bit more seriously and didn't rely on mostly just adult and shock humor while still making it funnier than hell.

Ventura Ventura Spacey People!
- Excellent; no notes. Do they have the full series anywhere?
  
  If they do, I have no ud where, which is a shame.
- Getting Matt Lucas to dub an anime MC was certainly a choice.
I need to know what manga this is
- Don't Fancy 2: The Gittening
- The Tsuntsuntsuntsuntsuntsuntsuntsuntsuntsuntsundere Girl Getting Less and Less Tsun Day by Day by Yaki Tomato.
  
  Oh shit, you're serious! I thought you were making fun of the increasingly long, ridiculous anime/manga titles of the last few years.
Obligatory BBC Dub of Urusei Yatsura
- We need more dubs like this! It's pure comedy golden!
  
  Edit:
  
  Ventura Ventura Spacey People!
this is what makes the xenoblade games funny
I'd probably stop noticing after a few minutes.
- I'm trying to figure out what we're noticing at all.
  
  Can I not see the problem because I'm too British?
