Localizers are framing it this way because their "work" is being checked against the original source material only to discover a host of unnecessary changes. They have no valid defense & would rather pretend it's harassment instead of translating accurately.
They also created the Bimmy & Jimmy intro with a careless spelling error.
The only thing that detracted from it were the goofy subbing choices, which is no fault of the series itself.
And of course they'd also enjoy aspects of the "translation" that weren't even supposed to be there while projecting their weirdness onto the characters.
The poor quality of modern localization makes perfect sense once you realize those who are responsible for it hold open contempt for Japanese culture.
When localizers and their ardent defenders try to justify nonsensical translation choices:
Granblue Fantasy: Relink was announced in 2016 & has had such a cursed development that I'm not sure it's ever coming out. It's unfortunate, because it looks like a really promising game that captures the designs really well. Hopefully it comes to fruition.
This is a glaring contradiction. If localizers were truly trying to translate a work as accurately as possible, they wouldn't be consulting with sensitivity readers for their opinion on what's acceptable, they'd be following the original script.
Street Fighter has been around for decades & no one has ever thought otherwise. Preferring one art style over another has nothing to do with imaginary isms.
