2013/03/20 - [NEW PAGE] - A long-awaited answer The original "Digouters"? Or the US-localized "Diggers"?
It's probably been debated for a while in mixed communities; I have gotten quite a bit of feedback from several forums regarding my use of the Japanese terminology, especially since each side has their own preferences from what they first came across (English-speaking communities prefer the US dub, Japanese for the original terms, etc).
I grew up where I had easy access to both as imports, so I can't quite have a xenocentric preference for either, other than the combined experience I gained from playing both (though I still acknowledge the JP release by default, considering it was released during a time of poor translations).
So instead of just sticking to one of the two glossaries for this adaptation, I've decided to adopt them both to make the adaptation more expansive.
