To anyone who has watched the original sao II or understands japanese, does Death gun have a better name in the original series?
Death Gun’s name in Japanese is “Death Gun” in English. Which when you translate the rest of the dialogue into English comes off as rather silly.
Changing it to German in the American dub would have been appropriate.
Todespistole sounds rather strange don’t you think?
Less strange than just “Death Gun”. German just fits thematically with the rest of the arc. It’s destined to be one of those things lost in translation one way or another. Just like them thinking Sterben was actually Steven.
