a cruh-saunt
Its part of the outfit itself, i think its to make it cuter?
it doesn't do it for me
it looks out of place
considering she doesn't have bunny ears in the outfit
the mutsuki face lol
Blucher’s skin is alright.
Mutsuki man!

the John, hola
i like the skin a lot, it's just the bunny tail is stupid
the Kelp, hello
i mean i'm going to buy it right now
it remind's me of fenny's ski outfit
I don't suppose there are any ships named after Napoleon? would be funny having a girl like that meet Blucher
Why she so stupid
in snowbreak
Is there any thought inside her head
She child
Stupid child
Kaiser

You know what
also i havnt played snowbreak in ages 
I adopt her
well, fenny's is a snowboarding skin
i deleted it because it's too hard to play on mobile
and i can't play on computer because
windows
yeah i only played it on PC
i don't have windows
i mean i could try bluestacks
nah, snowbreak is kinda boring
i only noticed it again because of fenny's new bikini
Manjuu Cafe slot #2
Bunny tail is the best
the problem is no bunny ears
Really needs an oath skin
I should just stockpile some iced coffee now that we can actually make the stuff, girls keep asking for it
rice coffee
Meat coffee
mmm, savoury
the problem with most of the ships
missing an oath skin
Release 50 ships a year, 5 oath skins does that
as far as I'm concerned every shipgirl deserves an oath skin, but they're never going to do that
yeh
just my frequent cry for more oath skins
triomphant needs a skin
trionphant needed a decent augment
now having to go all the way to lavender tea research to be able to have someone plant one lavender seed that is going to give me exactly one lavender because farming is broken, just to finish a mission

That's perfectly fine tho
nyoooo refunds!!!
R/engrish
Whats wrong with it
"Many a little makes a muckle"
Commander, do you know what type of person will most likely be welcomed and respected? Why dont you let Akashi teach you her ways! which is ~~~~Learn how to persevere to the end, nyaa! Let Akashi witness your will to persevere~ Push forward, many a little makes a muckle! Nyaa~ Takao also said so! Nya~
This^ looks like machine translation.
But the words used though
Yes, it's correct
which is why it sounds like machine translation!
Whats a muckle
what IS a muckle
A muckle is a lot of something
Saying its machine translated when you dont understand english yourself 
bro why is your pfp that thing
What thing
not u
R/engrish
En moment
ugh >.< have any of you read machine translation? it takes a sentence and translates it so that its 'grammatically correct' but doesnt necessarily make sense.
Yes
nah it makes sense
It makes sense though
This is the 1st sence
Its an old english saying
sorry man
For what IS a mukle
Just because you dont understand doesnt make it incorrect
Commander, do you know what type of person will most likely be welcomed and respected? Why dont you let Akashi teach you her ways! which is ~~~~Learn how to persevere to the end, nyaa!

This sounds off, doesnt it? grammatically correct but just wierd.
Yes
Muckle means a large quantity
Well its a real word
Yeah, this ain't it
Why is ur pfp emoji ahegao
That's just old English
thats the real question
why does your worm glow?
If anything, machine translation doesn't get old English or sayings right
I dont understand rocket science so its not real
it glows because it radiates positivity!!1
I dont understand japanese so its not real either
Clearly machine translated
there are definitely ton of other translations that are silly and off but that one is just akashi being akashi
Yeah
Theyre just gonna post the same thing again because they cant read
"but erm this doesnt make sense whats a muckle"
Don't have to be so aggressive either lol
Imagine reading (i read a lot)
That dialogue definitely has the hallmarks of a machine translation, specifically from a language like Japanese into English, often seen in video games or anime-related content.
It's grammatically understandable, but the flow and word choice are awkward for natural English speech. Here's why:
- Punctuation and Exclamations: The heavy use of tildes (
~~~~), ellipses (...), and phrases like "nyaa!" and "nya~" are direct stylistic elements copied from Japanese text conventions, often used to convey a character's tone or moe (cute/endearing) qualities associated with cat-like characters. - Literal Translation of Phrasing:
- "Why dont you let Akashi teach you her ways!" is a bit clunky. A more natural English phrasing might be "Let Akashi show you the ropes!" or "Akashi can teach you a thing or two!"
- "many a little makes a muckle!" is an actual proverb, but it's archaic and very uncommon in modern English conversation. The Japanese phrase it's translating (chiri mo tsumoreba yama to naru, or similar) often translates more naturally to "Every little bit counts" or "Slow and steady wins the race." A machine translator might grab the most literal or a highly specific, lesser-known equivalent.
- "Let Akashi witness your will to persevere" is highly formal and slightly poetic, which, while grammatically correct, sounds strange in a casual, character-driven line.
In short, it's a literal translation that lacks the localization needed to sound like native English dialogue, giving it that characteristic "weird" feel.
I cant read without voice acting and png anime girls
bro
okay chatgpt

You did not just post that lol
Nixy 


Hence why I said engrish not machine translated
What does this say?
Ok, maybe you should bully him
We'll find out when we manage to raise it a level
"its old english noone would use that phrase" is what i got from that
someone being too literal with the translation...oh lawd
there ya go 😛 if you still believe im just dumb then ok, fine lol.

why did u post that man
what's the text in question
Gallant is cute I want to rub her
rub her when she is all sweaty
someone needs to pin that for the audacity
Because yall make me feel like im tripping balls and bad at engrish
we witnessed for all to bear
when does this show
trve
thats the Akashi side mission. you get her side missions by clicking on her like 50 times in the shop
who's akashi
Gallant effort
The cute cat girl in the shop
You have to pay gems to find out
Gems and Money fix everything
"its machine translated" ❌
"Its akashi being a weirdo" ✅
there's no cat girl in the shop
Mitsubishi gallant

Reminds me of a rover a bit 🤔
then its a hallucination and your actually in a coma. Wake up. We need you to wake up! They are going to pull the plug if you dont wake up soon!
gallant sweaty and jiggly
Ill never open the door
the proverb used in japanese is different
Open ze door now
okay
hey hey HEY! english only, amigo!
an actual full word to word translation would mean something like "a pile of udst makes a mountain"
or something similar
AL doesn't have a history of using mtl anyway
She must have severe brain damage by the time that gifs done
glowworm headstrong
with its translations
lol just because i think its funny
The original Japanese line is:
明石に指揮官の根性を見せるにゃ!塵も積もれば山だにゃ!
This is the exact source of the awkward English translation! It confirms the dialogue is from the character Akashi in the game Azur Lane and is part of her questline.
Here is the breakdown of the line and why the machine translation sounded weird:
-
明石に指揮官の根性を見せるにゃ!
- 明石 (Akashi) に (ni): To Akashi.
- 指揮官 (Shikikan): Commander.
- 根性 (Konjō): Guts, fortitude, willpower, or perseverance.
- 見せる (Miseru) にゃ (nya): Show (me/her)! + the cat sound/particle.
- Natural English Translation: "Show Akashi your willpower, nyaa!" or "Let Akashi see your grit, Commander!"
- Machine Translation Equivalent: "Let Akashi witness your will to persevere~" (This is a much more literal and stiff translation of konjō.)
-
塵も積もれば山だにゃ!
- 塵も積もれば山 (Chiri mo tsumoreba yama): This is a Japanese proverb that literally means, "Even dust, if piled up, becomes a mountain." It means "Many a little makes a muckle" (the archaic English proverb) or, more commonly, "Every little bit counts."
- だにゃ (da nya): Is! + the cat sound/particle.
- Natural English Translation: "Every little bit counts, nyaa!"
- Machine Translation Equivalent: "Push forward, many a little makes a muckle! Nyaa~" (This uses the very archaic proverb, making the dialogue sound unnatural.)
The translation is a case of being too literal and selecting an archaic English proverb ("many a little makes a muckle") as the equivalent for the Japanese one (chiri mo tsumoreba yama), which creates the grammatically correct but oddly worded dialogue you heard.
😛
dude
holy
fucking stop
batman
you didn't need to repost your gpt ass paragraph
Lol
im going to punch you
we've all seen it lil blud
hahahahaha
This is actually differnt from the previous one
Haven't read this much since last week

unique phrases are awkward to translate because....you know culture is a thing
This has got to be chatgpt how can you type all of this
This fast
it works but still awkward
japanese's one of the hardest languages to translate since a lot depends on context
got to deal with it
lol If you read what it said it actually goes into depth why its most likely machine translation. i just think its funny at this point
With how Akashi is, I think it's perfectly in character
yea Japan likes to beat around the bush a lot, while the US likes to go straight to the point
aka culture
Only thing that pisses me off is when he and she is mixed up confuses the entire thing
Don't know who they are talking about sometimes 😅
Got it — sounds like ZhadowReaper is confidently wrong, and you're looking for a breakdown of why his take is off. Let's dissect this in a fair but critical way (with a bit of humor, since it seems like you're annoyed by the guy). Here's a possible breakdown of why he's making a bit of a fool of himself:
🔍 1. Mistaking Stylistic Writing for Machine Translation
His claim: “This must be a bad machine translation.”
Reality: The character just talks funny — maybe they use archaic, poetic, or cryptic language intentionally.
Why it's silly:
Many games (especially JRPGs, visual novels, and fantasy RPGs) deliberately write certain characters with strange or dated speech to give them personality or indicate they're otherworldly, ancient, or eccentric.
Assuming it's a bad translation just because it doesn’t sound modern or casual is like saying Shakespeare was badly translated from English to... worse English.
🧠 Lesson: If it sounds weird, ask if it's character voice before yelling “machine translation!”
LMAO
なるほどわからん
Can you not

Clanker
what are you trying to translate?
pin is ready to come in with a machete very soon
is pin still alive
Ive read far too many machine translation visual novels and as soon as i see something like this it just immediatly makes me think machine translation. who knows if it was or wasnt, but ive heard a lot of people complain that the translation in differnt parts of the game is a bit off.

ok
Translation is often off, you couldn't have picked a worse example tho
Akashi just talks that way man
when they talk about the translation being off they mean EN tl going off script
rather than mtl
go look at her quotes
most infamous example's probably agir
I got the perfect emote for this moment
heck glowworm is another good example
she has a quote talking about being cleared
cleared meaning like a route in a dating sim
Duel of the fates
the og chinese said something completely diff
hmm i think translation is ok, what theyre trying to say is the same
you know what is also off atm.....algen
No problem! That previous summary was already brief, but here's the core argument compressed to under 2,000 characters (including spaces):
The argument claiming the dialogue was intentional "character voice" instead of a bad translation is wrong in this case.
The original Japanese confirms the awkward English was the direct result of poor localization (a form of bad translation), not an artistic choice:
-
Literal Word Choice: The phrase "Let Akashi witness your will to persevere" is a stiff, overly literal translation of the Japanese term for "guts" or "willpower" (konjō). A good translator would use simpler, more natural English.
-
Archaic Proverb: The line "many a little makes a muckle" is an ancient English proverb. It was chosen as a literal equivalent for the very common Japanese proverb, Chiri mo tsumoreba yama ("Every little bit counts").
The translator failed to choose natural, modern English equivalents. The original character speaks simply and cutely; the English version makes her sound stiff and archaic. Therefore, the instinct that it was a product of poor translation (or localization) was correct.
bruh
lololol
but you are wrong

I still dont understand why its a issue though, its a litteral emoji. no one in the dozens of servers ive been in has had a issue but the most degenerate gacha ive ever played has a issue with it. ironic.
was it a cold one
And there's the proof I needed
but speaking of translations, Ive seen AI garbage images everywhere now. And companies all over the world are hiring tons of AI programmers, so it wouldnt be any weird if we start seeing machine translation

Sexual activity! Ban him Pinny!
Shes such a cool ship
||Already a worm moment||
i like hood.....ies.
Understandable
!!!
Actually lemme go get mine
let me guess
That is clearly sexual activity!
honestly, i can understand somewhat that its literally an emoji but our human minds can't comprehend why AL mods do what they do.

what.
Because it's part of the rules, my guy
i was talking about other things.
lol its a small potatoes thing. i did it a few years ago and havnt bothered to change it so shrug

Why don't you sexual deez nuts.
who wants to help
not funny
wha
No implied sexual activity. This includes images of sexual activity while clothed, or implied sexual activity that has been cropped away. Ahegaos, torogaos, and other forms of implied pleasure faces related to sex falls under this guideline.
Kissing between to girls is a sexual activity, that wasnt just a peck on the cheek.
Wow, you changed NJ
Jokes on you I like Peanuts
No loyalty
I'll even eat them in the shell
NJ is bnuy..
AL Mods: "No implicated sexual activities."
AL Game: "implicated segg skins"
Kiss your brother when you greet him
😔
Salty Shell lover, I seem to understand this though
Human cell touch another human cell boo so sexual

you're not far from the truth, but kissing has different means
Why they put all the salt on the shell and expect me not to eat it?
what is sex?
@ mods they’re arguing again
dude
just say it
its not too late.
This literally 
every time i open my main screen and Hakuhou skin makes a lewd gesture then the doors close and the room shakes with hearts 🤣
kiss a random person, try not getting charged with sexual assault 🚔
You sure?
Any kind of physical activity can be charged as sexual assault if undesired
Anyway, give me a moment.
i will post tanks if you dont stop posting glowworm.

Kissing is most often an act of affection rather than purely sexual

How do you gain trust for Hestia
I did the easy mode campaign event stages, or is it the hard mode stages?
hard mode doesn't count towards building trust
just play some high lvl campaign stages
You just win
and then give ambermoon a kiss
In chapters above 3
This is how much trust I have rn

I tbi k

I am downloading PGR in the background
Yes
ask her out, give her flowers and gifts
you know
shower her with love

u dumbsex
Give her a brick of Uranium
just play normally - shes does not need to be in your fleets
She does, it even says
event says you gain more trust if in fleet
you can do without
I see

and call her a boring old fart

You know what fair enough, not the one I thought of but that also works
swearing nun is just chief's kiss imo. idek either
so shes an american spy for not having a dragon
