Yeah, the old subtitles are probably much less accurate, the dubs too. I remembered how off some of them were when watching that anime style trailer recently. As bad as English subtitles can be for anime, I dunno what translators were thinking for some Japanese subtitles. It’s like sometimes they get bored and decide to just rewrite lines for the heck of it, assuming they understood the original dialogue in the first place.

For posterity, I think that the theatrical subtitles should be preserved and always kept as an option, but if you want to also make the newer ones available, those would probably be appreciated as well.
