You had to do that anyway with the ones that did get official translations since they were edited so heavily. You'd be lucky if the plot stayed intact enough to follow the original storyline. I thought they were just extra surreal until I watched the originals with subtitles years later.

Back in the 80s we were just guessing most of the time. At least until Akira was released in the United States in 1988 and only then white people started realizing there was a market.
