Unfortunately with translations you'll always lose information, that's unavoidable. Unless you have something like 'Ore-sama loves his nakama very much'.

it bugs me so much when people keep nakama untranslated

AYRT

True, but if that nuance is crucial to the plot -- as it would be in any romance-based manga -- then losing it means losing a big aspect of the progression of the relationship.

I'm not talking about weeaboo usage, I'm talking about a step a couple take when they choose to stop using honorifics and what it means about their relationship. If there's a concise way to address that decision in English without the need for an extra six pages of talking about their feelings then I've yet to see it.

Really? There's lots of ways to do it. They might involve going as far as changing the literal meaning of whole sentences of dialog, which could annoy some purists, but if the point is to show the way the characters' relationship has changed, then there's nothing wrong with it. I've seen it done before. For example, a character switching from calling the guy she was dating "Last Name-kun" to "First Name" was changed to her casually referring to him as her "boyfriend" for the first time. If it's not a name thing, you can have a character use a more informal word that they wouldn't have used around the character they're talking to, and the other character pointing it out. Etc.
