"Oh, I read this book, the translation is fine, why do people keep saying the translation is shit?"

Because things that cost money are held to a higher standard than things that don't cost money. Because what's fine for a fan translation is a shitty professional translation. This is how things that cost money work. I don't know how many times I need to say this for you to understand. Nobody's calling the official translation shitty here, we're calling it mediocre or fine, and saying that that's not good enough for an $80 product.
