But seriously, fan subs are often so much better than professional ones. With so much more love and care.

All according to keikaku.

This one, I believe.

It's a Chinese Pokemon.

how difficult is it to take a joke in one language and make it into a joke in a different language with the same vibe?

It can be extremely difficult. Often there are weird constraints like needing to preserve the first letters of one of the words, or two words both sounding similar and having similar meanings. One hour is completely believable to me. When it's done right though it can really elevate the experience. My favorite example I've seen recently is from Yakitate!! Japan when they were making a Fist of the North Star Reference and the localizers changed "You are already germinated brown rice yeast" to "You are already bread".

I've heard a few people say this, but I think that's incredibly rare these days. At the very least, I almost never see it. In fact I can only think of one instance I've seen in the last 10 years.

Then enjoy your literally translated motion corrupt pictures from Sunbook country!

Some phrases might not make any sense though

Try to do a direct translation of "you're darn tootin'" and see if the viewers have any idea why the character is accusing the other person of fixing socks while operating a train horn

I too love seeing nonsense idioms translated literally to go with the rampant sexism and racism
