Rasengan2theface 47098 cr points Send Message: 26 / M / SW Virginia Offline	Permalink Reply Quote Posted 5/9/12 One of the things I've noticed over the past 8 years that I became 'aware' of anime, I realized that I had actually been watching it for MUCH longer than that later, is that people almost always prefer the original name, even if it is all in Japanese. English naming is 'boring' to us because we speak it as a first language, for most of us, and it is something that we don't have to think about. Japanese on the other hand requires more brain function and we attain a higher appreciation of the meaning of the words because they aren't second nature to us. Sticking with the original name, but giving the definition along with it is always my preference because it aids in a little bit of the learning of the language and gives some insight and recognition when the name appears in the show.

Audacious in a way considered admirable bodacious is just fine. the definition of bodacious surely suits the show because the are all bodacious.they are admirably audacious, bold. the etymology of the word begins with a portmanteau of "bold" and "audacious".

ibfromsd 29141 cr points Send Message: 29 Offline	Permalink Reply Quote Posted 5/9/12 I am kind of okay with bodacious space pirates, but c'mon its not the 70's or 80's any more where you have to change the name for a different market to be appealed to it.

yogsodoth 16017 cr points Send Message: Offline	Permalink Reply Quote Posted 5/9/12 Has anybody even used the word "bodacious" since the 80s? Sheesh. Why not "Gnarly Space Pirates" or "Faboo Space Pirates"?

NecDW4 16109 cr points Send Message: Offline	Permalink Reply Quote Posted 5/9/12 I admit, i initially passed on watching this because of the name. That however does NOT mean i dislike the name itself, it's a fairly good name. It was just misleading enough to make me think it was going to be a bit more slapstick humor. I actually started watching it when ep 15 was just airing, and i caught up in a couple days. Now i find myself just waiting with baited breath for each new episode.
