All better.
He asked for the original US translation, but it's nice to learn something new. Thanks, 'Kishi.

Kishi, you rule! Is there something else you can translate from the Japanese version, like Garland's final speech about time-loop?

Actual dialogue is a lot more complex to translate than spell names, so I'd rather just go with Origins on that one.

But that dialogue makes no sense! *cries*

Especially considering how many different times it's been translated--the NES version, Origins, fan translations, and now the upcoming GBA version, which inexplicably seems to be getting its own translation--I seriously doubt there's any way to translate it that will make it make any sense. It is, after all, time travel.

It is rather difficult to explain paradox, isn't it?
