ok, so i just bought the ultra analysis book but i dont speak japanese so i was flipping thru translations for monomas page and i was wondering if you had any thoughts abt (trans from oriigami) " He sees Class A as opposition, and holds a strong disdain for them. But sometimes, ever since Class A’s festival, he’s come away with a bad taste in his mouth… It’s strange."? i cant tell if the festival is referring to jirous performance or...?
oh!!! uhhh i think that might be a mistranslation actually ;; looking at the page here:
The text reads:
A組に対し、強い対抗心を持っている。時々、A組の寮にまで入って来ては嫌味をぶちまけて帰って行く…。奇行である。
While the first part of the translation is accurate (”He sees Class A as opposition, and holds a strong disdain for them.”), I think that there was a little mistake when reading the kanji for “dorms” 寮, as it looks somewhat like the kanji for “festival” 祭. It was a small and easy-to-make mistake, but it changes the meaning of the sentence quite a bit.
The line is actually talking about how he goes to the Class A dorms just to badmouth them sometimes haha.
