Purpose: "Commie's subs with all instances of "Eoten" and its various inflections changed to the relevant form of the word "Titan" and as a result removing 36MB of data from the fansub"

-Also available as just the subtitles file.

Eoten? The hell, I googled and it means
http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/eoten
1. giant, monster

However, even with my very limited Japanese ability, I checked out the kanjis composing "Kyojin", "kyo" is gigantic, bigger than "oo" and "Dai" it seems. "Jin" as in person, so gigantic person. I guess giants or even Titans (which came with Greek mythology, are gigantic gods, from googling it seems that they were portrayed like humans), which sounds pretty great and fits perfectly, would be totally ok to use in this situation. However "eoten" imply a monster, which they don't call 'em that in Japanese.

I wonder what's commie's beef with the word Titan when it fits, it's used in the official translation and fan translations and sounds great on top of that

Edit: I actually went to read the explanation and it's pretty bad, his argument is that Titans might have not actually been enormous .... so what? What IS the purpose the words? Their purpose is to convey ideas and, no matter how wrong it is, Titan is known to be enormous, even if it became a hard fact that titans weren't actually enormous, the word evolved that way somehow, so it will mean that no matter what until the term evolve again (if it does, and it takes decades to change.)

So yeah, they call them giant people, which doesn't say monster at all, so Eoten doesn't fit. And I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who had to look up Eoten vs Titans, which is a pretty known word. So in the end his argument is flawed and they just wanted to change it for a pretty dumb reason...

what are you talking about, when i look at a kyujin i dont get the impression of an invincible god, gigantic yes but not god. there are closer to monsters which is why its so surprising when they show intelligence. would you expect a greek titan eg kronos to be dumb like some of these eotena

If you know your Greek mythology, you would probably link it to that. What if someone doesn't know anything about it, then? If you hear the word titan, one would think of the word titanic(I.E. something colossal or the ship). If you want a word fitting, then why not giants? You know, Goliath, the story of Jack the Giant Killer, and such that would make it well known.

I would be happy with any English word or words that convey a general meaning. A translation that leaves untranslated words is very annoying: It kills the effort to emerge yourself in a story. Call them giants, Hulks, The Big People, The Giraffe People. Anything with a general meaning to keep the story going will do.
