"Fuck You!" sounds great to me... I actually wish they'd translate that directly with official voice over work, but won't ever happen.... unfortunately...

"Kutabare!" means "Fuck you!" - in Japanese, it's one of the harshest things you can say to a person; "Fuck you!" doesn't do it justice lol. He even shouts it during the attack.
I've translated the move as-is but having a heart I had to comedically make it "FACK you!!" in the Command List.
All he does is shoot a quick energy beam.
Are you guys OK with your game showing a nice "Fuck You!" onscreen while playing?
For now, I've just changed it to "Get Lost!"
Or should I change it entirely and rename an attack?
Yeah, it was definitely a lot of work for them to child proofing DBZ.Nathan Drake said:DBZ in Japan is definitely a little less kiddy than the Americanized version of the series. Also, by a little, I mean a lot. If you want to keep it true to the translation, by all means, make it "Fuck you!"
I doubt anybody would be offended. If you are, either suck it up, or don't use the wonderful translation. No skin off my back or anybody else's for that matter.

Nathan Drake said:I've never studied any Japanese, so I wasn't aware. In that case, it probably most likely means "Go Die" or something to that effect rather than the exact, direct translation to "Fuck you."

That's... what I've been trying to say.

I too was wondering this.
whew, I know a bit of Japanese internet culture and 2ch user's favorite thing is to say "Please die away" to people. So I think I'll go with "Drop dead!"phoenixgoddess27 said:kosheh said:Also I need some DBZ nerd help: Raditz has three specials. Double Sunday, Saturday Crush, and one more written as "Kutabare!".

???? usually just means "Drop dead", "Go die somewhere", or "Go to hell".
The vulgar way is the big F bomb, but in this case, it being Dragonball Z and Raditz, it probably means "Drop dead" or "Die!".
Actually, if I recall correctly, the phrase "Drop dead" was used in Raditz phrases in the Tenkaichi games. I'm not 100% positive, I'd have to pop mine in and check, but I'm sure the Japanese is along those lines. I highly doubt they'd drop the big F bomb.

Hey, cuss it up, what are people going to do, complain that the free translation is offending them? "Fuck you" is cooler.
OR you could put it as "Keep your eye on the birdy!"
