Jugdral Localization (Wank Optional)
Feb. 21st, 2013 09:45 pmSo. We'll hear no more about Latka and Scrabblebits 'round these parts.
And not Luchtaine and Scathach, either. Despite the mythological bent showed in the localization overall, Ayra's mini-me daughter has been localized as... Larcei. I think I like it. Meanwhile, NoA completely and utterly punted on the raving mess of a name that is Sukasha/Skasaher/Scathach and came up with... Ulster. Despite the fact that they've been assiduously erasing real-life place names from the game script overall (x-ref Leonster, Silesse, etc). I'm guessing this means that if Shanan gets localized in anything ever he will indeed be rendered as "Shannon" to go with his cousin.
"Ulster" is not a very good name but I have to laugh about it, as it just seems like NoA looked at "スカサハ" and went, "Fuck it. Where's a map of Ireland? Pick something!"
( The rest of the Jugdrali names are under the cut )
I'm reeling from "Quan" and "Arvis" and "Ulster" but I'll get over it.
