Everyone is allowed their own opinion on the topic, but sometimes it just completely ruins the ability to even talk about a thing because "YEAH BUT THEY CHANGED KUSO TO 'DANGIT' SO ITS WOKE" is the only thing anyone talks about.
This is why I stopped having this discussion. People would unironically claim that there are no untranslatable nuances and everything is perfectly 1:1, as if the two languages are simple substitution ciphers for one another.
They don't know the tiniest bit about Japanese yet are experts in how translation ought to be. And if you confront them about this, they just get mad and accuse you of being woke, the same way leftists respond to any heterodoxy with "you're just a white supremacist transphobe".
