Jiro Translation

[MrAluminum]

Has anyone translated Jiros' dialogue and pager response yet? I know it's soon to ask, but I figured I could start a disussion to come back to. I just find it hilarious how he starts screaming Japanese into the pager and the responder is like "...ok... hold on a sec..." like he's confused as hell but doesn't want to say anything about it so he's playing it cool.

I just heard one and it was "There is nothing to worry about because Jiro is here. Haha, I am the best."

I love it. Thank you drewbstar for showing me the way to heaven

[Sumire Violets]

maybe an option to hear what the characters dialogue is in english would be nice, so Jiro could either speak Japanese or very broken English

[Scentless Apprentice]

Just read these over. It's cool to see that Overkill didn't give him standard Kanto-ben dialect.

Can you imagine if Jiro said (For my family.) in broken english? haha, it'd be amazing!

I found this

”ははっ、横綱かと思ったんでよ。 お前のお袋さんだったとはな！” (Haha, I thought I saw a pro sumo wrestler. Didn't realize it was your mother!)

If he spoke good English (not japanengrish) then he would've been the most epic character to date. Those lines look amazingly interesting to be spoken by someone honorable. He's just a Rosetta Stone target now...

Jesus..
All that effort for lines that you can't even understand or comprehend.
So many lines for one action like Domination/civies when half the original crew are still missing basic callouts too =(

What a waste.

The lines themselves don't seem bad, actually. The problem is just that 95% of them are in Japanese. I mean, I like a good mix of a native language (Escapes, taunts / battle cries, maybe when hurt or Inspiring) and English (Just to be able to communicate important things, like specials, and for the former as well just every now and then). If anything, it doesn't make the character entirely incomprehensible, but still to an extent demonstrate their roots. Jiro, however, is pretty much entirely incomprehensible from what I can tell here.
