the jubi phonic cover of mind brand for example sounds catchy and nice to us English speakers but the songs lyrics are hardly the same as that of the derect English translation.wilford bremly, sep, 27th 1934 to Aug, 1st, 2020

example, わたしのにじゅろのち: derectly translates to "my rainbow blood" but that doesn't make much sense does it? a translater might feel like changing it to "my blood is gay" for us English speakers

in a song i like very much ごめねごめね (i'm sorry, i'm sorry) おにちゃん (onichan) is translated as big bro, おにちゃん means sibling, it doesn't have a particular gender tied to it despite having ちゃん in it and ちゃん (chan) being feminine btw, instead of onichan or sibling its changed to big bro for us westerners
