It should be noted though that the guy saying this is just a script editor at NIS America. Which basically means he works at a glorfied translation house. |
No offense to his job, but being a script writer to a game studio is worse than being one for an American Anime Distributor. They expect those guys to churn out a product as fast as possible and don't care about quality or accuracy.
