I may have been a little too harsh earlier. I still buy their games but I can't stand their sense of "adding humor". They don't stay true to the original game's dialogue and they feel the necessity to add their own characterization. The original game already has characters that already have voices and personalities. Localization companies just need to give us accurate translation of the text and that's it. It's not about what they think the character is like; it's about how the character actually is. My philosophy is: "fuck with the original game as little as possible". Also, I understand the differences between liberal and literal translations. I realize that 100% literal wouldn't sound right but 100% liberal isn't good either.

This is one of the reasons I'm learning Japanese. I hate how everybody is "okay" with having the original creation altered. I hate how we all have to be grateful to localization companies even when they do shitty jobs. I always feel "half excited" when Japanese games get announced for the west. This is because I know that it'll probably get fucked up in some way (no JPN audio, shitty scripts, removed content, ect.).

Origami is kind of annoying. The part where she licked Shido's fingers was hot but her personality is kind of hit or miss for me. The fight scene in this episode was nice though.

Good episode. I really like the humor in this anime. Those ClariS references too.
