The smart man makes a joke that fits. Gets popular enough in the beyond Japan market, that it gets put in in the redo/adaptation.

The guy who doesn't get paid enough for this shit goes with just the joke that might fit.

The sperglord goes literal with a Translator's Note.

The moron goes with just a literal translation.

If I'm translating for more savvy people, like fansubbing or scanlating manga, I would do the latter since I expect people to understand.

If I am to translate for people who are basically normalfags, I would go for a joke that fits

>>121042124

Nice try faggot.

The former.
The important thing here is "that fits"

Yes. Toradora. Though it is something Minori would say, it still sounds retarded. Every time it was used after that was ironic.

Joke that fits with TL note about the original joke.

>>121042346
Telling anyone to get the fuck out the second they post anything seeming off topic and to go back to whatever board they came from?
>>
Well what kind of joke are we talking about? Is it referential? Is it cultural? Is it a pun? It depends on so much.

Make up a joke that neither fits nor has anything to do with the source material, but is a hilariously funny meme.
>>
>>121042832
Then substitute one word for an obscure word derived from old English that has almost completely fallen out of use, and write an endless screed as to why this word is the only acceptable one as only it carries the necessary connotations, even though the more common word is generally understood in exactly the same way.

>TL note about the original joke.
>on a video game

That's a programming nightmare

You do a background check on the source material/director & script dude
Then lurk 2ch for 3-7 years
And bam, you can make a joke that fits
