Well, casual American reader even. Casual Western readers would maybe not understand the changes either? At least that's how it often goes when it comes to translating things. As for the forest, I'm aware of that one...likely because it was either mentioned somewhere (media) or I stumbled upon it some time. I would put myself somewhere between the casual and the hardcore group when it comes to general knowledge of Japan (I can thank anime for that). Absolutely. RottenBlock does a fantastic job in general, whether that's documenting things, hacking things etc. Still, over time, I have become way less tolerant of localizations. In a world where the colors of cultures are more and more being turned into a muddy brown, I really want that cultural uniqueness that is etched into a product, especially when it comes to older media. And that's besides the fact that changing Japanese to American doesn't work at all for a European like me, except for making things more illogical. The obvious solution would be to finally start learning Japanese...
