I am absolute garbage at writing, but let me tell you, if you are a "storyteller" than I am an award-winning novelist in comparison.
It used to be “these English writers are taking too many liberties, just stick to the translation!“, and now it’s “oh no, the translators have betrayed us too!” — when I write my goal is to honor the spirit of the scene, and make the dialogue pop. I am a storyteller, not a robot.
