What? :D So if Kishimoto lets Sasuke say "My left eye is the Rinnegan" and for some reason, VIZ translates it as "My right eye is the Sharingan", the translation is magically correct, even though Sasuke never said that?

I want the wiki to be as true to the Japanese original as possible. That's why I learned Japanese and that's why I'm a sysop here. Most of those, if not all, discussing here have no experience as translators. And yet you want to change something that isn't broken. I'm sorry, but this is getting out of hand. If you don't even understand why a VIZ translation isn't necessarily correct just because it's by VIZ, I can't help you. How did you get a green translator highlight? Sorry, I know that this is way off topic but I'm just curious to know because I am currently learning Japanese so I just thought that I could put my knowledge into use.
