Differences between Japanese and English

A fun sample vid. Rough translation of what's different per cut.


 * 1) Relatively the same but Masamune doesn't break down crying. Masamune also tells him to stop saying something so embarrassing and demands to know whether Yukimura's teasing him or saying the truth.
 * 2) No reference to the first title in Japanese. Keiji just tells Masamune that he's looking pretty good and big today. Masamune says that anything looking big to the giant is a big fat contradiction.
 * 3) The last part is different. Masamune says that being praised by Kanetsugu doesn't make him pleased -though he sounds a bit happy. Kanetsugu is also a bit more joyful.
 * 4) Shingen's lines are different. He just says that fire and water can accomplish great things if they work together. He laughs at the end and calls them troublesome kids. Slight variations on Masamune and Kanetsugu's responses too.
 * 5) This version is much longer in English. Ginchiyo starts by saying something along the lines of English except she's asking him and not commenting on his behavior. Mitsunari retorts that she's the same as him. She replies that in order to follow the path that one feels is right and just, it may be necessary to be a brutal. In response, Mitsunari utters he's not the same as her.
 * 6) Still kinda the same but the responses are different. Mitsunari says that he doesn't need talking with others or changes to his plan, knowing that it'll still work well. Mitsuhide replies that he must be a person who has a hard time living.
 * 7) Ieyasu seems amused by Kanetsugu's rudeness to him in the Japanese version. He's glad to see the author himself in person.
 * 8) Nagamasa says that his sister-in-law is beautiful and brings life to the phrase "beauty is a sin". He begins to wonder if something can change about her clothing (to better her image). Nohime catches on and says that she could just toss off her clothing, to which Nagamasa hopefully replies that it's a metaphor for removing her sin.
 * 9) The tone between the versions are different in this one. Mitsunari says that Ranmaru appears to have a pretty face, which flusters the youth. He then assures him to not worry about it since he just wanted to try saying the line once.
 * 10) Different in pretty much everything. This is a response to the video above. Sakon says that Ranmaru has a pretty face. Ranmaru remembers Mitsunari's line from earlier and states that he must have studied under the older one. Sakon, who has no idea what Ranmaru is talking about, just gives a confused expression.

Off the top my head, Ginchiyo and Yoshihiro's interaction about the cat is a bit different. Ginchiyo seems more bashful in the Japanese version when she admits that the Tachibana likes cats too. Sake neko 16:59, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
