anbu vs aone release comparison

[NL|MegaMika]

I go for AnimeOne, it has better translation, karaoke, font, they translate the hand seals, all names of all techniques and finally the subs say Ero-sennin instead of Perverted Hermit. Go AonE!

oh yah here's another one to compare. after Naruto does the rasengan:

Aone:
Orochimaru: That boy doesn't seem to be too well
Jiraiya: Tsunade is a medical specialist. You don't have to worry, Naruto will be fine.
Orochimaru: That's not what I meant.
.....
Orochimaru: I didn't expect him to be able to do this much. If he falls into Akatsuki's hands, it'll be
troublesome.

ANBU:
Orochimaru: That boy is trouble
Jiraiya: Tsunade is a medical specialist. Naruto will be fine, now. I no longer need to worry about
him
Orochimaru: That's not what I meant
....
Orochimaru: I didn't expect him to be so strong. Things will become troublesome if Akatsuki
gets its hands on him


In this instance, I seriously can't tell which one turned out better. Aone's "That boy doesn't seem to be too well" is grammatically out of tune, but ANBU's "that boy is trouble" doesn't even make sense at all. At least Aone's use of the word "well" has a passable double meaning. But ANBU's uses the word" trouble" doesn't follow ANY train of thought that Jiraiya then replies to.


I originally felt most of ANBU's diction fit right in with the original meanings in many places, but as you can see in this example it was the exact opposite.
