Fact Checker (update: Ep.51)

Minute: 16
Context: Beerus sits on Goku’s chest and starts punching him.
Beerus: “I’m so tired…tired tired tired tired tired tried tired tired tired tired I can’t stand it!”
Significance: Don’t ask me.

I took it as Beerus was punching him out of frustration, because the Saiyan God he saw in his dream turn out to be weak.
He wake up for that challenge and was starting to think it wasn't worthy.

Tired of fighting weaklings. Not physically tired.

Some fansubs used "sleepy" which also works here. Sleepy/Bored. The context is the same.

[EmmaWinters]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure 眠くて refers to actually being sleepy.

[MCDaveG]

But what’s Piccolo’s excuse?

He's this chillout guy, who doesn't bring his driver's license, so he can drink the hell out and others drive him around.
He's so cool, it's part of his style. He did it the first time in Yo! Son Goku etc. standing on the top of the hovercraft.

''Piccolo doesn't fly - others fly Piccolo.''

[LuckyCat]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure 眠くて refers to actually being sleepy.

I was thinking this too, as Japanese uses the word 疲れる for tired. Though the effect of the language might be the same. Suppose we imagine Beerus being still sleepy from going aeons with no challenging fights. If we follow that reasoning, the only way he could be truly "awake" is with a good challenge.

This is just my theory.

[MCDaveG]

Also, every wondered about Piccolo's outfit with those wing like shoulder pads?
It's actually what flies him, as Piccolo doesn't fly himself. Muhaha, you never knew that did you?

[irreality]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure 眠くて refers to actually being sleepy.

Yeah, it means sleepy not bored. I took it to mean that he cut his sleep short (only 39 years) because he was foretold a great fight. And he isn't getting one and he is sleepy and cranky because of it. But that is just my theory.

[Herms]

I admit, I was lumping "tired" and "sleepy" together in my mind...even though they're really not exactly the same...and I totally overlooked that in English "tired" has the double meaning of being mentally tired/bored of something rather than just physically tired.

Rats.

Went and changed it to "sleepy". Sorry for any confusion.

So...do you think he means Gokuu is so boring that he wants to go back to sleep?

[Cipher]

I think it's pretty clear Beerus is saying he's bored with the fight during that scene (as in, "You're putting me to sleep"). I'm not really sure how people could interpret that any other way.

Also, Herms, nice little jabs at some of the plot laziness in the episode 11 annotations.

[ArchedThunder]

I think it's pretty clear Beerus is saying he's bored with the fight during that scene (as in, "You're putting me to sleep"). I'm not really sure how people could interpret that any other way.

I took it as him being tired because he didn't get much sleep and now he feels like he might have wasted his time waking up for the Super Saiyan God. So less that he's bored with the fight and more angry that he wasted his time waking up early.

[Herms]

I think it's pretty clear Beerus is saying he's bored with the fight during that scene (as in, "You're putting me to sleep"). I'm not really sure how people could interpret that any other way.

Yeah, I think it ultimately boils down to that, one way or another. In Japanese nemui isn't used to say "I'm sick of this" the same way we can say "I'm tired of this" in English, but I still think that's what he's getting at. After all, if you have time in a fight to complain about being sleepy, it can't be too challenging a fight. And nemui is merely "sleepy" rather than "exhausted" or anything drastic like that, so again if Beerus is complaining of being "sleepy" he can't be having too hard of a fight. But it's just not quite as direct as saying "I'm tired of this fight".

Japanese Wikipedia spells it as ウォートリン, and since ウォー is used in kana spellings to approximate the English "wa" sound, going by this spelling the planet's name would be romanized as "Watorin" or "Watrin". However, some people (such as Julian) heard it as more like オートリン, romanized as "Ōtorin" or "Ōtrin", and the former is what Kanzenshuu has gone with so far. We'll probably just have to wait for a spelling from an official source, and until then it's probably best to hold off speculating about name puns.

For what it's worth, the Japanese closed captions have:

惑星ウォートリンの\N焼きじゃけと→
第６５星雲のチキン南蛮ばっかりで。

Ah, thanks. I had totally forgotten about that whole issue.

[Draconic]

Regarding the before-last quote, judging from your literal translation and the way you actually put it in the quote, I would go with something like this: "Don't you think of human lives?"
Sounds more like Goku rather than "value", without going much into the heroics of it all.

It's just a suggestion based on what you wrote there and zero japanese knowledge, so apologies in advance if something is off about it.

[valfranx]

herms this is a misstranslation?

Spoiler:

Since it says that the energy ball is "heavy." ?!!

[FortuneSSJ]

^ That was the translation that I saw. I took it as Beerus was mocking Goku saying if that attack was heavy/too much for him.

[Ajay]

It's not a mistranslation, but it's trying to say "It's a bit of the heavy side for you to deflect it", essentially.

Reading that bit, I was thinking maybe "What do you take human lives for?" ...I suppose using that phrasing would have a bit of an issue where it could easily be misinterpreted as Goku meaning "why are you taking human lives?" rather than "what sort of value do you place on human lives?", though.

[Herms]

Updated with episode 12 stuff. All the universe-destroying you could ask for!

[Bullza]

So then they really can destroy the Universe after all I suppose.

[garfield15]

I guarantee somewhere in Universe 6, something like this is going to happen again and then "oh snap, all the universes are gonna die"

[Beerus-sama]

Minute: 26
Context: Goku narrates the Next Episode Preview.
Goku: "Hey, what's that technique? Has Beerus-sama been hiding his power again? But I'm a bit different than before too. I ain't gonna lose! Let's keep on fightin'!
Significance: An early summary of ep.13 talked about Beerus "transforming", so this is probably a reference to the same thing, whatever that is.[/spoiler]

If this is what I think it is, then I'll probably be quitting Super after the next episode.
