Meh I can't decide which sub to watch for Aria. What I'm pretty sure is the official sub has this ugly yellow and black compared to the fansub's blue and white (matches the show better, stupid consideration I know), and even though I'd assume the official sub is a better translation, I have my doubts because the reading is more stilted. I ought to learn Japanese so I can make better decisions about things like this.
...there are probably better reasons to learn a new language than that, true
I've watched both and I'd say both subs are roughly equivalent. There's some small differences but nothing really major.
Edit:
Based on my VERY LIMITED knowledge of japanese, I'd say the fansub was more "direct", while the official sub went more with how what the characters were saying should be interpreted given the context. But like I said, very limited knowledge of japanese, so I could be completely wrong about this.
Retour en haut
