Translation Help

[p123]

I need a couple of keys quotes for some brave soul to go into the murky waters of Kanzenshuu. The Raditz Saga is plagued with issues.

1) When Goku takes off his weights in Viz he says "This is gonna be a fight!"
2) Raditz after witnessing their power says "Add hundreds more degrees and it still won't make a difference."
3) Raditz says he will use more and more power slowly as they fight after he first hits them.
4) Piccolo says that Raditz used no such power as this before.


I believe Viz is rife with issues here, we need to track down this saga as it may be one of the worst imo.

Does Raditz indeed showcase two sets of powers against them?

Viz suggests that Goku vs Piccolo have a decent chance against Raditz while in Herms it suggests they barely have a chance at all. These are all important factors.

I want to post it there but it irks me for some reason. Let Aahil will do the job.

2) I think...

Chapter: 199 (DBZ 5), P10.4
Raditz: “Don’t make me laugh! To think that you’d try and face me with that level of power! This is what it means to not know your place!”

3)

Chapter: 199 (DBZ 5), P14.1-5
Raditz: “But it’s just a matter of time before you die…I’ll be slowly making my attacks stronger.”
Piccolo: “To think that our levels would be so different…!

I can't find anything in the SC that resembles the other two.

That's right boys

 

[p123]

So it does appear that Raditz has showcased 3 different powers then.

Goku and Piccolo's shock at Raditz' opinion on their power definitely suggests they weren't aware of his full power.

The last thing is to confirm what they thought about their chances vs Initial Raditz. Goku and Piccolo think they have a slight chance or something of that nature.

Chapter: 198 (DBZ 4), P10.2-5
Piccolo: “You should be well aware that his strength is on a whole different level. [ ] He’s not an opponent you or I could oppose on our own…but if we join forces, there’s a slight chance we could defeat him!”

Piccolo thought he and Goku could possibly beat Raditz at the level he approached them initially, which we know was nowhere near his actual power.

I think it's sort of worth mentioning that Piccolo thought Goku, Krillin, and Roshi fighting together didn't stand a chance, which is why he volunteered to go instead.

Chapter: 198 (DBZ 4), P10.2-5
Piccolo: “Even if those two [Kuririn and Kame-sennin] go, you won’t be able to defeat him [Raditz]. I’ll go with you.”

 

[p123]

I think a slight chance would probably be 2 70s vs a 100. 2 75s against 100 should be a decent enough fight, they might win.

2 Vegetas vs Reecome or 2 Vegetas vs KKx3 Goku would probably be a decent battle.

2 70s vs a 100 was Suppressed Goku vs Jeice/Butta. So, the slight chances have to begin at a smaller gap. Zombies.

 

[p123]

Jeice and Burter were most like 60 to Goku's 100, not 70.

Yeah I could only find the quotes Pyrus posted. Herms doesn't have a translation for what Goku said right after taking off his weights. I can look at the JP anime if you want.

 

[p123]

Yea, I checked it, I didn't see anything, but double check.

 

[ahill1]

Do u know what is said in the anime? I can try to look into the raw scan. If it's a small thing I can squeak out a translation.

 

[p123]

Yea, he said that things might be a little bit better or something.

 

[p123]

Put it in Google Translate as well.

 

[ahill1]

Put it in Google Translate as well.

Google Translate is terrible at translating Japanese things lol.

 

[p123]

Really? Why? Who told you that?

 

[ahill1]

Really? Why? Who told you that?

I tried it before. It's useless.

 

[xmysticgohanx]

I have tried 10 different ones. Google translate is the best for online ones lol. That doesn't change whether it is good or bad though lol.

How about we look at the scan and go symbol by symbol in a japanese to english dictionary? That way we get extremely literal translations. According to: https://www.reddit.com/r/LearnJapanese/wiki/index/resources ,
