"Kuso" literally refers to excrement. It's often "translated" as something less offensive in English, which is a case of the interpretive stance DJZen described.Originally Posted by Zeromus_X
'Kuso' seems to be an all-purpose swear-word/exclamation anyway. (From what I've noticed.)
Yeah, why is that? Then again, who'd wanna see a man's bum? :x
Girls would.
Guess it's part of the whole "If a girl sees a naked guy, the guy is a flasher, but if a guy sees a naked girl, he's a peeker."
everything is wrapped in gray
i'm focusing on your image
can you hear me in the void?

Still, they'll probably leave the GBA script like Woosley's, for nostalgia. Although it'd be kinda neat if they freshened it up, like Ryukishi said.
Oh no no way. The script was phroperly written by the same person who did Star Ocean:Till the end of time.
I'd like a source for that.
It'd actually be very hard to believe if they didn't re-use the Woosley script, because it holds so many nostalgic lines to all the people who played the game before.
'Son of a submariner!'

FFIV's script was completely retranslated for the PlayStation release, but "You spoony bard!" was preserved. So, that shouldn't be a problem.
Yeah, but the script for FFIV US was really screwed up. There's nothing that bad with FFVI US's script except all the censorship, but I understand what you mean.
They better not take out the self-help booklet line.
Or the waiter line.
Or any of the other classic Kefka lines.

It's true, "kuso" and other insults don't have the impact they would have in English, but they're rude language nonetheless. And it's out of discussion to ask if Final Fantasy Vi's script has been really toned down or not. It HAS been.
Yeah, I've got the translation from zophar.net, and I like how it's more mature. That's Skyblade's, right? I didn't like it when Cefca said the f word, though. I think the best translation for kusou is crap. That's not that as bad as the word that starts with sh.
Yeah, they should keep those lines like "Son of a submariner!" but uncensor everything else, just when they come to "kusou" just translate it "crap" b/c crap isn't that bad of a word like you guys say "kusou" is. Oh, Nintendo's censorship policies are much laxed now, right?
Whoa, Relm says that? Stragos must not be raising her well.
Weird, I type l o l, and it comes out laughing aloud with mirth and merriment.
Welcome EoFF's censorship pal.
Man, and I thought Nintendo had a strict censorship policy. That's not even a swear word. I just used it to make sure people knew I was joking, although I suppose it's obvious.
Banon = Banan? XD
Haha, that's "banana" in Swedish, ffs!
[ba'na:n]
some of the translations are better than what skyblade picked imho.
