To the people crying the localized DGS names are problematic, C/apcom Japan localization department is in Osaka, which is where Janet Hsu works. Their localization team works with the JP branch.

This isn't specifically just for AA or C/apcom, but many companies these days communicate between each other when it comes to localization. People claiming the localize DGS names are problematic forget they still need to go through/work with the JP branch during+

the localizing process. Now you don't have to like their name choices. I have a few I don't like either, but calling them r*cist against JP or problematic makes zero sense when it's a team effort between EN and JP branches.

So yes, you have a problem with something in the localization, then you got to look at not just EN, but JP side of things who also ok it. There is usually never any ill-intent in localization decisions, only ignorance or lack of knowledge.

A note, not all companies localize the same. Janet Hsu covers this in an article about Localization Ace Attorney, citing Persona as an example. What they all do share though, is communicating with the other team during the localizing process. https://www.capcom-unity.com/zeroobjections/blog/2014/11/21/%0Blocalization-and-ace-attorney

Some key remarks about Localization vs. Translation, and how JPN is learning how having a good localization can really help uplift a game in another language when an English game is translated to JP.

She is not the only person who express this same sentiment about localizing. FFXIV Localization team feel this too, even from the director himself. https://twitter.com/katrinaltrnsl8r/status/1374745167022845952

Tl;dr:
-Localization decision is game by game basis with Janet Hsu
-Localization team works with JP branch.
-Localization =/= Direct Translation

Randomly, I do recommend reading her blogs, cause they have a wealth of information on translating and localization process for AA.
