Marzgurl has been collecting examples in a thread: bsky.app/profile/marz...
Let's make a thread out of these. It's time to start speaking up about platforms using AI in closed captions for anime, just like AI in dubs.
On Crunchyroll, these auto-transcribed captions were spotted on The Ancient Magus's Bride.

I caught these examples from Ancient Magus Bride S2.

I don't know which of my kouhais need to hear this, but because I'm seeing this in a ton of commercial J>E game locs: you really shouldn't retain quotation marks in the same places as the Japanese source text 9 times of 10, especially outside dialogue. Punctuation parity in general is often sloppy.
