I actually agree that fan translators need to be way less literal and they have a certain obligation to learn more about idioms/slang/other nuance of phrase, but I do have to say that the first example title you offered makes a hell of a lot more sense to me as a phrase than the second.

Idk people fetishize feet in plenty of different ways and for lots of different reasons. People enjoy footplay as non-fetishists too. Even I know that much as someone who has and does neither of those things

I don’t suppose you’ve run into CGRascal? “I’d rather have no translation than a CGRascal translation” is a popular refrain.

somewhat OT but loooooooooooove the Monty Python graphics.

Really? Because as far as I'm aware 'self saving' is not a phrase that exists in the english language. Google certainly doesn't seem to think so, because if you search for it the results are all about this terrible title. And scum villain? Seriously?

This secret reminds of that episode of King of the Hill where Peggy's making foot fetish videos and she wants her feet surrounded by flowers, but the camera guy tells her that's not what sells or something.

Same here, OP, but sometimes if I go a long time without watching something (like two years or more), I'll feel a similar rush when I rewatch it.

I saw ship tease between Anne and Diana in Anne of Green Gables back when I first read it and I didn't even know what shipping was at the time.

Don't get me wrong, it's certainly not good, but "Self-(Pre)Serving" is confusing. you don't pronounce "serving" the same way as you pronounce "preserving" ("s" versus "z" sound), so it legit took me a minute to figure out what it was trying to say. Self-saving isn't a phrase, no, but I get what it means without having to think about it. "Pre-serving" made me think it was something happening before being served, or something.

NAYRT

It's an isekai, right, so I assumed that "save" was supposed to reference the save function in video games, and 'preserving' doesn't do that

Read this secret to my husband out loud and we both laughed our asses off. So true.
