Subs vs. Dubs: My Hero Academia Season 1 [Part 2]

Bakugou is one of the more contentious characters in My Hero Academia, and the changes that occur between the subbed and dubbed translations don't help with that. Join me in exploring the wonders of translation in this episode of Subs vs. Dubs!

I honestly think you're looking too hard into these translations. Just because you're finding meaning in subtle word choice does not mean that meaning was intentional.

“Heroica” fucking gold 😉

JDeku: "You looked like you were asking for help...", honestly made me think that it made Bakugou realize that someone else saw his fear. He had to deal with the idea that he didn't have it all together.

Bakugo isn't afraid of his homosexuality, but he is very afraid of being a bottom.

[@megamonmon]

I don't know why but I feel there is some gay subtext in this video...

I can't imagine what your pictures folder must look like when your making a video

[@magi9194]

Hm, I don't know why, but I think Bryant is trying to say Bakugo is gay.

[@SaturnsMysteriousEye]

I never thought about it before this video but now I totally buy that Bakugo's aggressive treatment of Deku is a result of repressing his sexual feelings towards him.

As a translator myself, I really appreciated this in depth look into the differences between translations.
