First, you complain that it's too literal, then you complain that it is changing things around. I fail to see how the context has been changed.
In any case, what name would you give?

He's the leader of a gang of people who he put to shame by pulling down their pants, leaving them standing there in their underwear. In the context of the game, this makes sense. This is the "spirit" of the line, and the jab that Lisa is trying to convey... She is saying that he is only respected because of something stupid, so he deserves a stupid name.
This has nothing to do with "trivia" or "verbs". It's a name. It's a stupid name, yes... But changing it would spoil the meaning.

The hama spell was kinda better back then it could be used on bosses in p3 and p4 it only works on normal enemies( instant kill)

番長does not mean captain, it means leader of a group of juvenile delinquents. also, パンツdoes not mean pants, it means underwear. I don't have a problem with it, it just seems a little unnatural in English, and Captain Underpants (as given by the Oracle of Maiya), might be less accurate, but feels more natural. Though whatever, the translation's already done, and it's great regardless. Good job!

What a sucky video, you show teh cutscenes despite spamming through the text, and you take AAAAAGES during battle even though you just use a onehitkill item. You sir...: SUCK

Too bad you didn't even notice that I was using cheats and the battle was very fast. Not to mention that this was just a test to show how the translation was working before beta testing. Idiot, go away.

Cool, but... "Underpants Gang Leader"? Seriously now. Too literal.

Literal would be Captain Pants. This obviously isn't literal.

To get "Captain Pants", you would have to switch the word order and de-idiomize "pants". So yes, yours was completely literal.
