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.

Browsing through Trails stuff to get ready for Zero this fall, and I sneak in some Dark lore (hopefully that’ll get localized soon) and I stumble upon Kiseki Ral!

It’s genuinely great that we live in a world where the first manga series of Kamen Rider and Super Sentai have official localized releases. It’s even cooler that we’re getting more with the Kuuga manga localization

Yes! It's um.. I am almost positive it is Umihara Kawase. There are new games that were localized and I believe Steam has localized versions of the old games like this one.

Brawl Brothers and The Peace Keepers are sequels, but when they were localized in the States, this aspect was removed. They were also made more difficult in a variety of ways as was the standard at the time.

All of them are on NSO.

Square Enix released new Live A Live HD-2D Key Art for the "Wild West" and "Near Future" Chapters.

I still can't believe this game is 2 months away after never officially being ported to any other platform or officially localized in nearly 30 years.

Every time I see a character, specifically from Dragon Quest 10, get chucked into a machine translator and then have it called a day I want to jump off a building.
Her name is Yuliza/ユーライザ
Granted this is the clarity translation and not official

Dear
There are some manga and anime adaptations of Ruby Party games that were localized in the US. I would have believed in your excuse if you used those as metrics. But then again, that was way back in 2008- there are more otome game consumers now than before.

In The Fabulous Fear Machine, certain missions take place in regions where we can draw inspiration from unique, localized folktales and urban myths.

Hi hi, I like to draw n play otome games! Hoping to find other otome fans out there✨ I tend to like charas who score low on popularity polls and games that aren’t localized!

Some day the world will recognize Kohran supremacy. Just gotta get those original games localized.

Nier Rein has the same terminology too! It's better localized as 'light & dark' for ethical reasons. Westerners don't like the monikers of 'white & black' all too much as it is culturally insensitive.

Here I was creating this idea for a rainbow-themed girl with the ability to become a rocket, fly at fast speeds, and cause localized explosions...
...and then I realized something.
