I assume they just translated the names to Japanese to have a similar meaning.

Yeah, I know but what are those names??? I can't find it on Google. It seems that most of the characters' names were localised

Ja Wangan backwards is basically "I am"(Nan) "a Prince"(Wangja). Ouji Naru can be translated as the same thing in japanese. The same goes to the reason why Bam was called Yoru, both mean night.

well dumpster fire is not the word I would use but yeah the studio adapting the webtoon is doing a shit job and I can't even blame them I blame crunchyroll for getting a bunch of glorified interns to make what pretty much is just one piece not just in length but also in story

Yea I agree, I saw the first episode and it wasn’t horrible. But I just don’t get why a series this big isn’t being treated with more care. It could easily be the next big thing if done well. Doesn’t make sense to me

Hate all of the cut content too

it drives me crazy that name on the subtitles and the name spoken are different, like pick one and commit ffs

@Synnll Then pretty much any anime in the last few years that is not fansubbed drives you crazy.

It has been a while since crapchyroll refers every character with their first name without honorifics in the subtitle, regardless of how they are referred in the jp dub (more often than not, not by their first name).

And yes it is low effort crap and breaks immersion

bruh
