Translation in Kamen Rider W Episode 2

Post by erikhol »

Hi. I noticed two things in the 2ed Kamen Rider W episode that caused me concern. One is a line, at 12:14, where the girl says "They sent me in exile". Shouldn't it be "They sent me INTO exile".

Also, the young girl says two times, 7:50, saying "I didn't hear anything about this!" That might be correctly translated - but doesn't it work better with it's more natural equivlent "You didn't say anything about this!" That just seems more natural for a person to say.

Just suggestions.

Oops? We're human. Frankly, that's a small mistake that isn't particularly relevant to anything important. Even if English isn't your first language, it's easy enough to figure out.

So you'd rather we changed what she said into something she didn't say?

I don't think either sentence is particularly more natural, I have heard both in conversation.

OK, fair enough.

But now I gotta ask - what was changed or was wrong to have a 2ed version released? I just watched the 2ed version and didn't notice anything different.
