Japanese Censor with I-No?

Recommended Posts

In the Japanese GGXXAC, whenever I-No burst against Order Sol, she gets bleeped.

What is she saying? And why is there no censor in the US version?

I want some back story!:psyduck:

If I recall correctly, it is censored because the game was in arcades, and they didn't want this woman's cussing to blare out from the speakers.

There's no censor in the US version because lol nobody understands japanese, this might not be accurate though, I'm just going from what I've heard.

Here's the quotes (in all their missing glory):

SOL VERSUS I-NO

---------------

SOL : Shibaraku da naa. [it's been awhile..]

I-NO: Gobusata~~ *BEEP*-YAROU!! [You haven't written~~ *BEEP*-HOLE!!]

---------------

I-NO VERSUS ORDER-SOL

---------------

I-NO : You, mata futari de *BLEEP*-ga suru ka? [Pest, you still want that man's *BLEEP*?]

ORDER-SOL: Nigasanee zo, kuso onna!! [You won't get away, damn woman!!]

---------------

MEGALOMANIA: *BEEP*-NAN DA YO TEMEE WA!! [WHY YOU-*BEEP*!!]

---------------

BOSS LOSE?: KONNO CHIKUSHO GA!! [GODDAMN YOU!!]

BOSS STAGGER/FAINT?: Sonno hazu wa--!? [This can't be--!?]

BOSS GOLD BURST?: MEZAWARI NAN DA YO HAI GA!! [YOU FILTHY EYESORE!!]

BOSS BLUE BURST?: HAI NO BUNZAI DE!! [LOW-CLASS TRASH!!]

---------------

The sounds in the JP home releases from #R on actually have altered sounds rather than the Beep censored ones. So you could maybe even say that the home JP releases are more censored (I believe original XX had the beep for both JP and US... it was definitely in US). Actually, US AC plus is the only game post XX to still have the beep... Both JP versions cut them, and the US AC original release is missing them too.

Example:

I-NO: Gobusata~~ *BEEP*-YAROU!! [You haven't written~~ *BEEP*-HOLE!!]

was shortened to just "Gobusata". The intro animation wasn't shortened though, so you can see her mouth move afterwards.

Normally Boss I-no's blue burst has a beep sound too, but the JP releases actually uses a different voice sample entirely from the older games instead.

My preference is the beep, although one could argue it's worse for if you play her. Nothing broadcasts that you're bursting like a loud beep noise.

What's more frustrating is that boss I-no voice LITERALLY NEVER gets used in Versus in AC or AC+. Hopefully this gets addressed.

Actually, now that you mention it...the PSP version of AC+, her C Type boss voice appears more commonly now (U.S. AC+). So I think it was fixed for PSP onwards.
