Talk:Rakuin no Monshou:Volume1 Chapter3

Although he smacked his shoulder with an ear-to-ear smile, it honestly had a weird taste to it. When he heard with even Gowen having a bitter smile, it immediately turned to a serious look,

-I didn't quite understand the first part. Maybe "When he heard that even Gowen had a bitter smile". Also, I had been assuming the person speaking before this line was Tarkas (who also smacked Orba's shoulder with an ear-to-ear smile), so then the 'it immediately turned to a serious look' seems out of place since it would be referring to Tarkas's smile disappearing, but that doesn't feel like it fits the context.

Rather than something like luck, this is, as you explained so well – the destined golden mean of fate, that’s said to have decided all humans lives from the instant of the universe’s creation, right?

-not sure what "golden mean of fate" means

Before Orba could retort, there were signs of wriggling and touching. It came from none other than Orba himself.

-"signs of wriggling and touching" seems a little awkward. I can't quite picture it. Maybe that's just me though.

doubts on his bloodline could sully the imperial family’s dignity and at most pose a problem in the distant future, which in turn could question Fedom’s duties.

-I feel like "question Fedom's duties" doesn't fit, I interpreted it as meaning either something like "obstruct Fedom's duties" or "reflect poorly on Fedom".

The people attending the party are from the Garberran and of course the Mephius’ side and have not been informed about your true identity.

-A little restructuring, possibly something like "The people attending the party are from the Garberan side, and of course those from the Mephius side have not been informed of your true identity either." Though I'm not incredibly fond of my example, and I'm not sure that it matches the intending meaning.

Right now, Orba couldn’t do anything. This situation of Fedom using him here as the prince’s body double, happened so fast, but someday he’d eventually find a reason to.

-I wasn't sure if this was supposed to be 'find a reason to it.', referring to the reason Fedom is using him as the body double. Or if "find a reason to" is a phrase connected to Orba wanting an opportunity to take action (to get revenge on the nobility).

These are sentences in chapter 3 that I didn't understand all of their meaning. Thanks, --Cthaeh (talk) 22:31, 27 April 2013 (CDT)
