To everyone who read unofficials!

I appreciate when they are added because it adds to the experience. When I read, it plays out like a video in my head so to “hear” the sounds really helps.   1 reply

I’d say it normally is better for them to be translated. A lot of the time you can assume what the SFX is, but I know sometimes I’m unsure what happened in a certain scene because the SFX isn’t translated and the action isn’t clearly shown.   reply

A reader can understand what happened from context clues- there was ......   reply

Honestly, I don't mind if they aren't translated. Action, adventure, smut, and most drama don't need translations. I can see and image a slap, groan, smack, kiss, sword slide, melee power launch, or many other sound effects. I prefer, to make it easier on the translator, to only translate technique names, special moves, power names, and things like......   reply
