Keep in mind there might be people who use the translation who won't get the joke.
I'd recommend going for the actual translation.
It doesn't matter whether they get the reference or not. Pokemon used that line for the exact same purpose - using something where it's invalid.
The joke carries the same meaning as the literal translation....

Do it! Use the meme!

There is a time and a place for everything and it IS NOW!
Seems 1.35 added a couple more lines in certain places, so my translations from 1.03 have gradually gotten more and more offset. Translator++ doesn't have a feature for me to insert new rows, so it's too much work to realign the translations.
the big thing the newer ver added were new people to fight and be able to read the newspapers in the gallery which is great rather then having to lose to everyone just to read them.

The default import option should match the translation to the original text. Any lines that were modified won't import, but you should have a majority of your old translations.
I believe version 1.20 was a major content update. It added 8 new opponents.
Still working on translating, though the initial burst of motivation has waned. Something this big really ought to be done collaboratively, but translator++ doesn't have such a feature sadly.

I know it must be hard but I wanted to say thank you so much for your work. It is a godsend to see someone translating this game for all the fans to play.
Me, June 23: Why isn't Translator++ as convenient as spreadsheets? This is way more complicated than it needs to be.
Me, July 12: Wait, why don't I just paste it into spreadsheets and work on it there, then paste the finished product into Translator++?
What sounds sexier?
"She attacks the penis with her voluptuous ass."
or
"She attacks the penis with her thicc ass."
"She attacks the penis with her voluptuous ass."
or
"She attacks the penis with her thicc ass."
The former, "voluptuous". The latter may break tone and distract from the eroticism of a given scene. Is this for a generic hip attack or a defeat scene?
defeat scene. when you lose to Kaori for the first time and she proceeds to jerk you off in front of a crowd
Oh, in that case, wouldn't "She presses against the penis with her voulptuous ass" work better? That's how the CG looks.
And aren't defeat scenes in 1st person for the most part? I can't find an equivalent for that line in the MT version of the scene (unless the MT garbles it that much)
the translations keep switching between first person and third person, so it's been a struggle to decide which perspective to keep it at
Go with third person. It is almost always the default.
I remember you said you are MTLing. I would bet the first person pov is just dialogue (which should be first person) or the MTL mistaking the pov for some reason.

see that's a good point, but since most of the mistakes come from Japanese implying the subject rather than saying it, I feel like it can go either way. I also think first person pov feels more intimate. she's not stroking his cock. she's stroking my cock.
