About Japanese subtitle translation

Japanese subtitle translation involves converting between fundamentally different sentence structures (English is SVO, Japanese is SOV). The AI handles keigo (politeness levels) based on character relationships and scene context. Foreign names and terms are correctly rendered in katakana.
