Klonoa 2 alt font texts.
« on: August 13, 2014, 04:23:32 pm »
I had some free time and this one really had my attention last night.

Looks like lots of Romaji but I don't know very much japanese  :(
If anyone here knows Japanese well enough to make sense of that inscription please leave a reply of your own translation.

More Information about the fonts and signs discovered by @Sad dummy / Bad dummy & @MiQooRi on twitter :D

I helped some but my help was getting extremely high resolution screenshots so that the text can be read easier.

(I'm not only new to this forum but also don't have a lot of experience with forums in general so let me know if I'm doing anything wrong)

I was really curious about the Japanese message written in KoS's room so last night I asked somebody on r/translator about it and they said it was lines from an R rated war movie called "Full Metal Jacket," directing me to this video specifically:

Edit: This clip contains strong language, just so you know

t=20s

It seems like a really odd reference for them to make but everything from the fourth line down matches the captions in this video from 20 to 30 seconds.
Maybe one of the devs was just a real big fan of this movie and none of the other devs bothered to look at the text?

I need to send that to Bad Dummy. lol I have seen this movie sometime years and years ago. Interesting that google came up with viet cong and the movie is about the vietnam war it.
Normally videos with language like that don't stay around but this one has to slide for study purposes  :embarassed:

Thank you @Cello2WC for this strange bit of information haha.

Also putting these 2-3 under a spoiler so it is all in one spot for study.

Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.
