Negative three hundred and seventy four degrees Celsius?

This discussion was moved from the chapter "Melancholy Of Asahina" talk page.
-375.15 degrees Celsius is Absolute Zero, the lowest temperature. It is a fact of physics that nothing can be colder than this. That Nagato's stare is so close to this is an indication of how extremely cold her look is.
The temperature of an object is the average vibration of its molecules, therefore the lowest temperature is where the molecules have zero (or near-zero) vibration - this lowest temperature is known as Absolute Zero. It equals -375.15° Celsius, –459.67° Fahrenheit, or 0° Kelvin.
But the highest possible temperature of liquid water is +374.15 degrees Celsius at a pressure of 221.29 bar (22.129 MPa or 3209 psi). It might be a reference to this. /victor a faithful reader 81.236.16.141 15:58, 26 November 2006 (PST)
The absolute zero is at -273.15 degrees Celsius. Nothing else! But yes, the absolute zero is at -459.67°F. To convert use °F = (°C × 1. + 32 or °C = (°F - 32) ÷ 1.8. It can't be colder then 0 K (-273.15°C or -459.67°F). /victor a faithful reader and also a Swedish chemist (we invented the Celsius scale) 81.236.16.141 16:19, 27 November 2006 (PST)
I think this translation is was botched. Perhaps the translater was using the chinese version? It's known to contain some errors... The text in the Japanese version reads "長門のマナス4°Cくらいに..." (pronounced: 'Nagato no manasu 4°C kuraini") which translates to "Nagato's approximately minus 4°C ..." - Nowhere do I see words about minus-three-hundred anything.
