[turnabout-trial]

Kind of cool

Translation notes, localization transcript, and sources under the cut.

There are several valid translations for the way Polly says he’s feeling in that fourth frame. “ハラ” is literally “harassment,” but this line could be interpreted in any number of ways—that he’s feeling anxious, stressed, even excited or thrilled. Obviously, from a Klapollo perspective, I would have loved to translate it as “excited,” but the real thing to get across here is that Klav being cool is rubbing Polly the wrong way, so I went with a vague colloquialism to try and capture his irritation.

<Apollo> （今日は、あのキザな牙琉検事が ひきいるバンド‥‥） (Who would have imagined me here...)

（《ガリューウエーブ》の コンサートに来ている） (...at a Gavinners concert, watching Prosecutor Gavin "rock".)

（正直なトコロ‥‥） (To be honest...)

（ちょっとカッコよくて、それが また、ハラが立つんだよな‥‥） (...he was kind of cool. And I'm kind of envious.)

（みぬきちゃんには 言えないけどさ‥‥） (Not that I'd ever admit that to Trucy.)
