Japanese text in Chapter 1? I thought this was a translation, so why is there Japanese here? Moreover, in the text, there are brackets that are used as a way of summarizing portions of the book rather than translate the story as it was writ (i.e. [Some Poem] ) It may seem to be a bother, but it flows more with the story if all of it was translated, just as it was in previous volumes.

Examples: 

              Flipping the page, Nagato answered with her head down.

                "源俊頼(! ). 百人秀歌."

~*~*~ 

      Started a reciting contest.

          [Ogura Hyakunin Isshu no.66 - two lines]

          [Ogura Hyakunin Isshu no.67 - two lines]

          [Ogura Hyakunin Isshu no.7 - two lines]

          [Ogura Hyakunin Isshu no.94 - two lines]

~*~*~ 

       Tsuruya-san's hard question had a very weird answer. I think this is the first time I've ever heard that.

            "......[Nagato finishes the poem]"

       Flipping the page, Nagato answered with her head down.
  
            "源俊頼(! ). 百人秀歌."

~~*~*~~

See? It interrupts the flow of the reading, not to mention that it leaves gaps in the story for those of us who cannot read Japanese.

Possible Reference to Book[edit]

Could the line, "The title reads "Philosophers, Artists, Musicians, and their Interrelationship", and it is as thick as a brick," be a reference to Gödel, Escher, Bach given that Gödel was a philosopher, Escher was an artist, and Bach was a musician?
