Reply To: Where can i find Saint Knights Tale?

“Anime Expose”? How is that better? :Cheeks:

It’s the AIC translator’s fault, anyway. 😉

But what happened is that the full title translates literally into “Sage Machine Master’s Story in the Different World” (according to my book jacket) and as discussed in the old FUNi forums via a side-trip to AFC:

From a certain Juraian princess’s fan club:

quote:

異世界の聖機師物語

Very literally(I think)

Another world’s Seikishi(Holy Machine Master)’s tale

I seem to remember a lot of old translations using holy/saint knight’s tale or some such. However, the kanji for knight are completely different(though it is pronounced the same), making it a play on words.

So that’s why.

I don’t expect either to be used if the show’s ever licensed.
