At the arcade I frequent sometimes they recently got a "Ranger Mission" game. I almost thought it was mistranslated because of the garbled sound effects missing with the voice acting. I thought it said "eliminate the hostages and vanquish the enemy" but unfortunately (after waiting 5 min or so) it ended up being "liberate" when I heard it again. Too bad. On the other hand, there are a few awkwardly translated phrases in Chrono Trigger, usually later in the game. I think near the Northern Ruins's town. |

Ayla's not poorly translated, she just doesn't talk normal. | |||

No it's not. If Ayla was originally portrayed as being articulate in the Jap version, that's a mistranslation because she's a numbskull in the US one. | |||

Originally posted by Mutation Well, there is a band named !!! but at least there's a pronunciation or three. The most common one is "chk chk chk". So maybe something like that. |

Which is why it was kept in the PSX version. (That and the outcry from fans would be insane. ) |
