Tip for whenever you use the image translate feature again: Take a picture of the text, then choose the image scan option. Live scanning basically has the algorithm constantly arguing with itself and is hardly ever accurate.
Knowing some Japanese makes this video even funnier. Google's flailing attempts to translate the simplest of words are almost as funny as Ian thinking the mayo was water.
@@braedenmclean5304 That's a very fair point. I think this is less emblematic of poor software design and more of the inherent difficulties of trying to get a computer to process sensory input the way a human would.
The instant translate thing has worked really well for me as long as it's a Latin or Cyrillic alphabet. I feel like the Japanese is stylized to look cute so that's why it's bugging out.
The AI just needs better recognition of lines, otherwise Japanese is still pretty strict on how words should be formed. It shouldn't be that hard for a image-based translation no matter how stylized the Kanji/hiragana.
It's not the stylized kanji, it's because there's a basic difference between most latin languages and japanese. Japanese language is heavily context sensitive. Often, sentences don't have a subject, because it's obvious depending on the context it's said in. Meanwhile, latin languages need a subject. There's also other grammar "oddities" for us western folks. And since AIs are so far incapable of picking up on context, the translation is purely based on western concepts of grammar, and then words are added to the internal databank of the AI. Doesn't help that one kanji alone can say one word, but paired with another one, can mean something completely different.
My favorite Ian Editing Quirk is when he says something at one point in the video as a reaction and he uses the same exact clip reacting to a handful of other things as the video progresses (“that was a very helpful statement to make, Ian”). It never fails to make me laugh a bit every time
Hey! I'm a university student in Kyoto and this is exactly how Takoyaki is made in food markets! I've been to a few little cute food stalls that serve takoyaki and it's always a lot of fun to watch the (usually elderly) restaurant owner make the squid balls because after so many years of doing it they've perfected the art of pouring powders and mixing with tiny amounts of water. One guy near my house actually so good at what he does that he doesnt even NEED the little fluid vessel, he can eyeball the amount of water he needs and pour it in freehand. All in all this is a great showcase of a tasty Japanese snack and I appreciate you educating everyone on how it's made.
Ok so all trolling aside...Takoyaki is actually really really delicious. It's like a savory doughnut ball with a tiny piece of Octopus (NOT Squid) in the middle. It's covered in a tangy mayo and sometimes some katsu-like sauce (brown, tangy sauce that is quite good). Often they dump a bit of benito (dried fish flakes) on top, and that can sometimes be a bit much for Westerners. It's pretty easy to pick off if it isn't your thing. They use a neat little pan to cook them that does resemble the tray. It takes some skill to keep rotating the balls to get them to cook evenly. Sorry for geeking out about it, but it's actually a Japanese street food I really like and wish you could find in the US more easily.
I was in the Kyoto/Osaka-region with a group for a couple of months and we had a takoyaki party just before we left Japan. Seafood is kinda hit or miss for me and takoyaki has a bit of strange taste but it grew on me the more I ate it. Especially like the sauces and even the bonito flakes tasted pretty good. Okonomiyaki is even more my jam though, that stuff is really tasty.

Ian being unable to come up with the English word he's looking for is great, because the word doesn't exist in English. But it's more ironic, because the word he's looking for to describe a meaty and savory smell or taste is "umami", which is a Japanese word.
don't admit you're fluent in japanese unless you're ready for ian to absorb you into his phone so he can use you for the next video on niche japanese foods
@@englishatheartit’s ironic because he’s struggling through the task at hand because it’s all in Japanese, playing the character of an uncultured American throughout the video and he’s somewhat critical of the Japanese product he’s using. The fact that his editing is highly stylized in a somewhat Japanese way could be interpreted as funny in light of that. I don’t personally find that funny but I can see what they meant. Weird that you got your panties in a twist about it though
Just for reference: The name at the front of the package くるくるたこやき means 'round round' takoyaki The orange powder says 生地のもと which means dough power (kinda) The blue (orange...yes) powder says マヨネーズ which is literally mayonaise. The brown powder says ソースのもと which is sauce (basically takoyaki taste) powder The red (brown...ok) powder says タコのもと which is octopus powder - i'm assuming its taste related. Y'all should try em if you can get em As a child I honestly loved them... weird stuff

Hey Ian! I don’t usually comment on your videos ... if you need help translating, let me know! I’ve been living in Japan for three years! I love the poppin cookin videos
I have bought and made this and several other kinds of these kits, including the hamburger one, and thought they tasted okay. Is my palate about as refined as a dumpster? Absolutely, but I liked them all the same.
Usually, they're sweet and edible- like gummies. But these specifically try to taste like squid, so its weird and fishy and not in a good way. Neither sweet like candy, or savory like real takoyaki. Just gross
I'm not sure if it's the editing sound effects, you simply saying "nuh, nuh, nuh." to MJ and then her protesting with a poke, or because i'm sleep deprived, but im telling you i'm in tears
I love how you express your humor with the editing! I believe it's a lot of work. I will always appreciate the editing with your videos though. Really solid reviews too.
I know absolutely nobody gives a fuck, but I'm on my classic Brutalfoods binge, and found this comment from 2 years ago, and figured I'd give an update! I've since moved, bought my own place, gotten a better job, and gotten a black kitty of my own! His name is Mr Monet Midnight, and he's about a ×1000 more of a menace than MJ is in this video. I love him to pieces, and it sure makes me glad I've come such a long way from the last time I made a comment here.
I'm on another video binge, so time for another update, I guess? In addition to Mr Midnight, I have another cat now. He's chonky and silly and orange, and they're both menaces, and I love them both. I've also changed workplaces to a better paid job, transitioned, renovated my place, and gotten a good partner. I am also a very solid cook these days, so, with every rewatch, these reviews get more and more horrifying LMAO
It's wild going back to this video and seeing how phone translators has gotten SO much better now, that I'm actually going to be used it for my trip to Japan as a helpful guide.

The AI just needs better recognition of lines, otherwise Japanese is still pretty strict on how words should be formed. It shouldn't be that hard for a image-based translation no matter how stylized the Kanji/hiragana.
Even the cleanest Japanese or Chinese font is hard to translate with it
What’s up, Fred
That stylized first word could be a toss up for kurukuru or kurokuro. However since it a epizeuxis, spinning make much more sense than black black.
It's not the stylized kanji, it's because there's a basic difference between most latin languages and japanese. Japanese language is heavily context sensitive.

13:10 you’re looking for the word “umami”, Ian
You were being sarcastic but I think MJ helped a great deal with your cooking process.
I love how you express your humor with the editing! I believe it's a lot of work. I will always appreciate the editing with your videos though. Really solid reviews too.
"i sure hope this is a SWEET one and not a SAVORY one this time" hooo boy.
"Can be attacked from multiple angles"... God I love you. You have the kind of humor I see nowhere else. I applaud you. Godspeed.
And that splash as MJ was falling. All those other effects too and all the editing. Just beautiful.
Aww I love his neon moon light in the back. I want one ^^
+looks for something sweet. Picks the one with the octopus on it+ lmao
The patience he has for MJ is precious
I hope the plop soundbite never goes away.
Hello from Japan! I was in tears at the wild translations that app was coming up with! LOL
Not to exaggerate, but I would destroy galaxies for MJ. Since I cannot get a kitty in my new place, seeing one here made my day.
I know absolutely nobody gives a fuck, but I'm on my classic Brutalfoods binge, and found this comment from 2 years ago, and figured I'd give an update! I've since moved, bought my own place, gotten a better job, and gotten a black kitty of my own! His name is Mr Monet Midnight, and he's about a ×1000 more of a menace than MJ is in this video. I love him to pieces, and it sure makes me glad I've come such a long way from the last time I made a comment here.
@@Arlekienen proud of you!!! So stoked for you!!!! I have three mischievous black kitties so I feel that lolol enjoy your life!!💚🥰
I'm on another video binge, so time for another update, I guess? In addition to Mr Midnight, I have another cat now. He's chonky and silly and orange, and they're both menaces, and I love them both. I've also changed workplaces to a better paid job, transitioned, renovated my place, and gotten a good partner. I am also a very solid cook these days, so, with every rewatch, these reviews get more and more horrifying LMAO
There is a lot of amazing things on this channel. MJ is now the best one
William Boutelle Facts
for anyone curious it works better if you take a picture with it and highlight the text you want to read (it doesnt save the pictures to your phone)
Or if you try to actually align the text along the "Align the text" rectangle that shows up before it recognizes text
"That was a helpful statement to make, Ian!" brutalmoose 2019
Man, I love waiting for your uploads. XD It's always worth it!
HauntedDreamz1 what time stamp is it?
It's wild going back to this video and seeing how phone translators has gotten SO much better now, that I'm actually going to be used it for my trip to Japan as a helpful guide.
The machine noises at 7:52 and beyond had me dead. Love it.
The new member of the Brutalcast gets a 10/10
The Sonic Adventure poster/record made my day and so did the collection behind him
Been sent home from work ill, I’m kinda happy now as I can watch this while trying to get better, thanks Ian
The cat and the translation. Hilarious!
Oh man, I have not laughed at a video that hard in a long time. Great delivery….
MJ is so cute!!! Combine her and your editing skills and you got TH-cam gold right there!
Brutalmoose is back with another food review!
you should try and make some treats for MJ! 😊
Man the editing in all of your videos just adds so much entertainment value.
That translator is the equivalent of translation from google 20 times.
Its is literally a single translation from google
Takoyaki will taste 10x better than this sugary substitute. If you ever go Osaka try their Takoyaki. It's exsquidite ;)
I sea what you did there, very funny.
You're not wrong lmao. If I could find it again, there's one in Amerika-Mura that's fucking amazing.
14:32 I caught that Plop, don't think you can pull a fast one on me
sLOP
I love that Pajama Sam on your shelf. I recently played the food one, it’s so nostalgic.
There's a Humble Bundle going on right now with the Humongous games.
found you today on the first food review you made with the "penguin" tv food and been bingewatching every one youve made now. very nice!
MJ Leaping into frame and startling Ian from time to time make this video even more hilarious XD
