I honestly think it was a waste of resources, as funny as the initial novelty was (and by that, I mean it wore off within the first three seconds of content consumption, after which I proceeded to think, "I can't believe this is actually happening. Why would you do this?") I personally think it would've been better suited for an April Fools-style "preview" of that content and no further (because now someone needs to go back, figure out what's a joke and what isn't, and fix the joke parts; this was more work than it was worth, if you ask me).
I mean, there's using creative license, and then there's going too far. In my opinion, this is the latter.
Hell, that's one of the key reasons why I haven't finished fixing up Matoi's dialogue in the script yet like I was going to. She had to have that one conversation with a phrase that's difficult to convey in English (damn it, English, you had one job). I don't like what's there because it doesn't read too well, but I'm hard-pressed to find a decent fix. I'm actually tempted to turn to the anime fansubbing community or something just to get through that damn line because the last time I asked Kion about it, I came out of it exactly as confused as I was before I'd asked.
...Anyway, I think he intended to go back and fix it if someone recorded it (I think he said he at least wants some videos of it while it's still in joke form), but I'm not really behind uploading a video of... that on YouTube. Actually, I'm on the verge of outright vehemently refusing if anyone even asks. Don't get me wrong, though. I'll record it (eventually). Just don't be surprised when I say, "NO. ABSOLUTELY NOT," in response to uploading it.
@AIDA: I think "fix" would be the better term, because that's how it was originally uploaded. There's nothing to change it "back" to, per se.
