Source-only editorial audit
mirror moon translation audit
Every published finding was checked against the original Japanese and its surrounding context. The dossiers collect recurring problems while preserving the limits of each claim.
Completed corpus review
What the audit records
26,107 of 26,107 aligned units reviewed
All 18,514 previously published findings have been re-reviewed. 7,771 findings were withdrawn, and 154 await further source context. The borderline total includes 2,341 claims requiring revision and 36 previously withheld calls. Only retained confirmed findings contribute to the error count and reader highlights.
The audit evaluates the mirror moon English independently against the original Japanese witness. The Japanese critical edition supports interpretation; it does not replace the source. Conditional 2004 text and unresolved edition variants are withheld from the error count.

Rin's pride, agency, guarded concern, and cutting voice
Across the reviewed corpus, Rin authors her own choices, guards concern behind hostility or comedy, and uses exact barbs, status language, and tactical judgments; mirror moon repeatedly weakens those mechanisms or substitutes plainer affect.
- Japanese pattern
- Rin's explicit decisions, concealed concern, competitive and belittling language, shifts between public composure and private reaction, and the distinction between tactical threat and emotional displacement.
- mirror moon effect
- Her actions remain broadly intelligible, but self-authored choices become passive or generic, guarded concern reads as simple anger, and precise contempt, comedy, and tactical calibration flatten into neutral speech.
- Limits
- The dossier covers the reviewed corpus and does not treat every hostile line as concealed affection or every tactical act as emotional displacement.

Shinji's status performance, restraint, and displaced aggression
The early encounters change Shinji's archery status, cutting hostility, treatment of novices, capacity for restraint, and the reported direction of his aggression after Rin rejects him.
- Japanese pattern
- Claimed club status, social insults, deliberate public humiliation, Shirou's qualified defense, Ayako's hearsay, and the explicit contrast between the novice victim and Rin herself.
- mirror moon effect
- The broad antagonism survives, but Shinji's social methods and escalation become less exact: public spectacle becomes personal laughter, lack of restraint becomes temper, and the threatened target can disappear.
- Limits
- The dossier distinguishes reports, Shirou's defenses, and observed acts; it does not certify Ayako's hearsay or establish Shinji's complete later characterization.

Taiga's performed comedy, household authority, and protective care
Across school, Tiger Dojo, and the Emiya home, Taiga performs authority through bravado, jokes, and abrupt role changes while also acting from concrete care; mirror moon repeatedly flattens the register shifts, physical punchlines, competence, and protective detail that hold those sides together.
- Japanese pattern
- Mock authority, collapses from bravado into pleading, teacher and guardian language, household intervention, physical comedy, and exact acts of practical care.
- mirror moon effect
- Her broad comic warmth remains, but staged authority becomes generic speech, practical competence and care lose concrete detail, and punchlines or reversals become harder to read.
- Limits
- The dossier does not treat every mistake as incompetence or every comic boast as literal authority; it records recurring patterns across the reviewed corpus.

Issei and Shirou: exact work, temple diction, and guarded trust
Their student-council and lunch scenes depend on Issei's stiff comic diction, religious and family position, Shirou's exact practical language, reciprocal concern, and Issei's unusual ease with Kuzuki; mirror moon repeatedly substitutes unrelated jokes, generic religious language, objects, speech acts, and relations.
- Japanese pattern
- Paired idioms, named tools, formal friendship language, 典座 and 托鉢 food jokes, and 話し込む as evidence that guarded Issei becomes absorbed in conversation with Kuzuki.
- mirror moon effect
- The friendship remains functional, but Issei's temple-specific humor and concern become generic, and one observation of sustained trust is reduced to merely addressing a teacher.
- Limits
- The dossier records Shirou's early observations and does not infer the nature of Issei and Kuzuki's later relationship beyond the reviewed evidence.

The Emiya table measures care through competence and comedy
The household meals establish Sakura's learned competence and the uncertain history of her continued help: breakfast names exact dishes and states that she has surpassed Shirou, dinner explains the technique he praises, and Shirou frames Taiga's newspaper act and his own memory with explicit uncertainty; mirror moon generalizes the food, lowers Sakura's competence, changes the cooking method, and hardens both uncertain accounts.
- Japanese pattern
- Named ingredients and preparations, an explicit completed comparison between pupil and teacher, surface browning before simmering, speculative のか framing tied to Taiga's performance, and Shirou's evasive 気がする recollection.
- mirror moon effect
- The household rhythm survives, but Sakura's practical accomplishment becomes less exact, the praised method changes, and two bounded inferences become more certain than Shirou's narration.
- Limits
- The dossier records the reviewed household meal scenes, preserves their differences in culinary scope, and does not infer Taiga's actual prior-night activity or settle why Sakura kept visiting.

Shirou's justice ideal, inherited rules, and concrete conduct
Across childhood recollection and present practice, Shirou's 正義の味方 ideal is tied to Kiritsugu's ranked rules, an uncompromising formulation about killing, conscious resolve, selective rescue, and small acts of help; mirror moon repeatedly recasts that ethical vocabulary as superhero genre language, procedural advice, or a simpler personal failure.
- Japanese pattern
- Exact repetition of 正義の味方, explicit rule hierarchy, the conditional statement about killing, 覚悟, childhood resistance to limited rescue, and the robber-and-hostage definition of whom an ally of justice saves.
- mirror moon effect
- The aspiration remains broadly heroic, but its relation to justice and Kiritsugu's severe ethical instruction becomes lighter, more generic, and less internally connected; Shirou's confrontational refusal and dry self-correction also weaken.
- Limits
- The dossier records the reviewed childhood and training passages without deciding whether the ideal is coherent, attainable, or morally adequate later in the work.

Rin and Archer build trust through service, names, and resistance
Across the first morning, the relationship develops through domestic competence, chosen address, mutual correction, and Rin's refusal to admit how much Archer's recognition affects her; several English choices weaken those small acts.
- Japanese pattern
- Tea and household action contrasted with abrasive speech, the deliberate full-name-to-given-name transition, and Rin's sole authorship of tactical choices.
- mirror moon effect
- The bond remains visible, but key changes read as generic approval, joint action, or flattened affect rather than negotiated intimacy.
- Limits
- This dossier covers the two prologue scripts and must be tested against later conflict and route-specific intimacy.

Shirou's fire memories, bodily survival, and survivor responsibility
The opening and day-two fire recollections build survival through a body at its limit, fragmentary sensory memory, failed rescue, and anger at outcomes in which effort still sacrifices someone; mirror moon changes bodily links, adds an explanation for the memory gaps, and promotes bounded results or responsibility into stronger claims.
- Japanese pattern
- Precise event state, compulsive bodily continuation, heat and failed respiration, fragmentary recollection, distinct rescue examples, and questions about why peaceful survival could not be achieved.
- mirror moon effect
- The trauma remains, but its bodily and epistemic architecture becomes more generic and more settled, while some failures become explicit death and one impersonal outcome becomes Shirou's own failure.
- Limits
- The dossier follows Shirou's reviewed recollections and does not certify the fire's cause, identify unnamed people or objects, or replace later route revelations.

Saber’s knightly pride, independent agency, and negotiated obedience
mirror moon repeatedly shifts the tension between Saber’s knightly self-command and her duty to Shirou: role-based priorities become personal tastes, deliberate disobedience becomes simpler compliance or indifference, and tactical or courteous judgments acquire different emotional force.
- Japanese pattern
- Saber understands service as active judgment. She can obey, refuse, act independently, or reinterpret an order through knightly duty; her pride and willingness to accept wounds coexist with care for her Master and formal respect for opponents.
- mirror moon effect
- Local changes flatten this negotiation into obedience, personality defect, appetite for battle, or emotional coldness, weakening a central character conflict rather than producing one uniform alternate portrait.
- Limits
- The dossier does not claim every formal or martial rendering is wrong. It collects only confirmed passages where agency, duty, pride, injury, or courteous conduct changes materially.

Assassin’s cultivated warrior voice and impossible swordcraft
Assassin combines formal, cultivated speech with pleasure in an unattainable duel, while his swordcraft is explained through exact geometry, restraint, and a feat beyond ordinary human technique; recurring English errors flatten both the voice and the mechanics.
- Japanese pattern
- Measured praise and archaic courtesy coexist with lethal enthusiasm, while the duel repeatedly distinguishes weapon length, curved paths, simultaneous blades, arrival time, and tactical limits.
- mirror moon effect
- The English often substitutes generic combat language, malformed spatial prose, or absolute claims, and it drops motives and images that make Assassin more than a system explainer.

Illya’s childlike trust, casual cruelty, and distance from ordinary life
mirror moon repeatedly disturbs the unstable coexistence that defines Illya’s early presentation: childlike gestures and bids for intimacy sit beside delegated violence, casual talk of killing, inherited magical expectations, and an outsider’s uncertainty about ordinary children and family life.
- Japanese pattern
- Illya speaks and moves with conspicuous childishness, yet treats rival Masters as pests and commands Berserker without adult moral framing. Her questions about friendly conversation, paternal inheritance, food, and permission mark concrete gaps in ordinary experience rather than a single simple innocence.
- mirror moon effect
- Malformed lines, added intent, flattened gestures, and altered evidential limits make her alternately more generically cute, more personally murderous, or more mentally unstable, weakening the deliberate tension among trust, threat, isolation, and learned rules.
- Limits
- This dossier tracks confirmed distortions in the reviewed early encounters. It does not declare Illya innocent, diagnose her, or resolve later revelations about her age, upbringing, motives, or family.

Rider’s predatory elegance, tactical restraint, and contested obedience
Rider’s early violence combines overwhelming spatial control and cultivated grace with deliberate restraint, blood predation, and a willingness to question whether Shinji truly wants a victim saved; mirror moon repeatedly flattens that balance into generic menace, crude gore, or imprecise action.
- Japanese pattern
- Her malign black presence, ceiling ambush, crescent trajectory, daffodil-like grace, rippleless fingers, reduced-force strike, question about rescue, bounded-field predation, chain, and kiss-like bite coexist within the same encounter.
- mirror moon effect
- Tactical subjects and anatomy shift, aesthetic diction becomes generic, deleted gore returns in some configurations, and concrete weapon or Magecraft distinctions disappear, weakening both her frightening precision and her constrained agency under Shinji.
- Limits
- This dossier describes the reviewed early Fate-route encounters and death branch. It does not yet generalize her motives, identity, loyalty, or conduct across later routes.

Kotomine's clerical irony, provocation, and control of information
Kotomine speaks through ceremonious priestly diction, amused needling, strategic half-disclosure, and self-justifications whose truth remains bounded by viewpoint; mirror moon repeatedly flattens that voice, promotes implications into fact, or weakens his control of a scene's knowledge.
- Japanese pattern
- Recurring clerical role language, polite or amused gestures, barbed idioms, qualified claims, deliberate prompts, and staged revelations in conversations with Shirou, Rin, and Saber.
- mirror moon effect
- He remains recognizably antagonistic, but becomes blunter and less controlled: irony turns generic, rhetorical traps lose their mechanism, and disclosures arrive with altered certainty or reveal order.
- Limits
- This dossier records translation effects in reviewed passages. It does not treat every statement Kotomine makes as true or resolve later revelations in advance.

Caster's technical supremacy, predatory control, and cultivated cruelty
Across the reviewed confrontations, Caster explains overwhelming magecraft through exact mechanisms while wrapping domination, resource extraction, and bodily threat in cultivated mock-politeness; mirror moon repeatedly blurs the mechanisms and flattens or literalizes her predatory voice.
- Japanese pattern
- Coy modality, patronizing benefactives, small-fry and prey imagery, dimensional claims of superiority, calibrated exploitation, and technical contrasts among magical energy, completed magecraft, bodily control, and Magic Circuits.
- mirror moon effect
- Her broad menace survives, but elegant cruelty becomes generic anger or direct killing, contemptuous social language disappears, and the technical basis of her superiority becomes less coherent.
- Limits
- The dossier covers reviewed Caster material and distinguishes her claims from independently verified system facts; it does not assume every boast is objectively complete or truthful.

Kuzuki's teacherly composure, ethics, assassin body, and detachment
Across his confrontation and explanation, Kuzuki's ordinary classroom manner coexists with an anatomically exact killing art and a detached ethic that treats all outsiders as unrelated; mirror moon repeatedly changes the mechanics, moral predicates, and limits of that detachment.
- Japanese pattern
- Lectern voice and posture, severe cleanliness, ignorance rather than enthusiasm for the Grail War, killing whatever obstructs him, and circular-line-point changes through the elbow and upper arm.
- mirror moon effect
- His cultivated body becomes harder to visualize, his cold relational logic is recast as generic apathy or self-defense, and the teacher-assassin continuity loses its most unsettling repetitions.
- Limits
- The dossier distinguishes Kuzuki’s stated ignorance and detachment from literal magical control, and does not treat every use of “puppet” as proof that Caster directs his mind.

Gilgamesh's royal contempt, ownership, and tactical calculation
Across his appearances, Gilgamesh speaks and fights through a royal logic of ownership: people and treasures are his to classify, use, or discard, while his contempt often masks exact tactical calculation. mirror moon repeatedly weakens the ownership predicates, courtly insults, deliberate choices, and limits that distinguish his arrogance from generic villainy.
- Japanese pattern
- Royal first-person emphasis, status-marking address, possession claims, pleasure in controlled violence, deliberate withholding or deployment of treasures, and the owner-versus-wielder limitation exposed by Shirou.
- mirror moon effect
- His speech becomes generically rude or modern, his possession ethic becomes administrative or vague, and calculated domination is recast as sudden action, simple power, or undifferentiated arrogance.
- Limits
- The dossier does not treat every occurrence of “mongrel” as erroneous and does not use Shirou’s matchup advantage to make a universal claim about Gilgamesh’s power.

Lancer's pride, loyalty, battle joy, and breezy care
Lancer’s blunt speech joins heroic pride and delight in combat to a strict personal loyalty, while his teasing distance often conceals practical care. mirror moon repeatedly blurs the distinctions between cooperation and contract, chosen allegiance and temperament, lethal challenge and generic aggression, and sympathy and casual friendliness.
- Japanese pattern
- Dry physical jokes, windlike movement, reciprocal disarming, appetite for a worthy fight, refusal to be docile, exact terms of temporary aid, and admiration constrained by his inability to betray his own Master.
- mirror moon effect
- His breezy precision becomes generic roughness, his battle ethic loses its mutual stakes, and his loyalty or reluctant care is rewritten as niceness, stupidity, simple support, or direct praise.

Zouken’s parasitic survival, decay, and failed humanity
Zouken’s horror depends on exact distinctions among borrowed flesh, insect-supplied bodily functions, the soul vessel, the soul as bodily template, and the decay of the self that he tried to preserve as human.
- Japanese pattern
- Victims provide flesh; insects replace consumed internal functions; genes normally record bodily form; Zouken instead preserves a soul whose deteriorating template repeatedly recreates his decay. His wish for true deathlessness grows from pain and fear without excusing predation.
- mirror moon effect
- The English often preserves the broad immortality explanation while collapsing its mechanism: flesh becomes a whole body, functions become organs, the soul vessel becomes a living soul, humanity becomes humility, and his desired undying body becomes mere persistence.
- Limits
- The dossier follows claims explicitly made in the reviewed script and preserves narrator qualifications. It does not identify the soul vessel’s location here, certify the fantasy account as biology, or excuse Zouken’s victims.

Sakura’s suppressed pain, agency, resentment, and contested selfhood
Sakura’s characterization depends on the tension between practiced endurance, reciprocal care, displaced resentment, chosen action, bodily invasion, and a selfhood that other characters repeatedly interpret or deny; mirror moon often changes the degree, agency, or evidentiary status of those elements.
- Japanese pattern
- Recurring changes to Sakura’s explicit speech, action, bodily condition, family and Master relations, others’ interpretations of her, and references that determine whether she acts, suffers, chooses, protects, or is instrumentalized. The mechanical sweep also admits proposition-level findings whose source or adjudication explicitly names Sakura even when the reusable error-class label does not.
- mirror moon effect
- Her pain and restraint become less exact, retaliatory intent becomes generic power, bodily and magical mechanisms blur, and provisional judgments about whether she remains herself are promoted into settled narration.
- Limits
- This dossier records recurring translation effects across reviewed routes and permits overlap with relationship or system dossiers when the local error materially changes Sakura. It does not excuse her choices, diagnose a separate personality, or treat another character’s interpretation as objective fact.

The first Master-Servant confrontation depends on distinctions among contractual status, worthiness, commands, opinions, and voluntary cooperation; several English lines blur those distinctions or obstruct the exchange.
- Japanese pattern
- Rin's demand for contractual acknowledgment, the Servant's separate test of worth, and his stated condition for control of combat decisions.
- mirror moon effect
- The argument becomes harder to parse and the final condition broadens from noncompliance with demands into categorical dismissal of Rin's views.

Archer's wounded pride, cynical service, and concealed self
Across summoning, domestic service, and conflict with Shirou, Archer combines wounded pride, barbed obedience, technical knowledge, and guarded self-disclosure; mirror moon repeatedly flattens the distinctions that make those traits coexist.
- Japanese pattern
- Archer shifts between cultivated mockery, reluctant service, exact claims about Heroic Spirits and Guardians, and moments where questions of purpose unsettle him.
- mirror moon effect
- His hostility becomes generic cynicism, his obedience and system explanations lose their precise limits, and revealing disturbances in his self-presentation are weakened.
- Limits
- The dossier records repeated effects on Archer’s presented character and claims without treating every statement he makes as objective lore or inferring his concealed identity ahead of the script.

Shirou and Sakura: reciprocal care, family boundaries, and the high-jump memory
Their early exchanges establish habitual care, playful competition, Shirou's limited standing inside Sakura's family life, her carefully bounded solitude, and a formative memory of his impossible high-jump practice; several English choices damage agency, relationship direction, social obligation, and her mixed response to his persistence.
- Japanese pattern
- Household rebuttals, cooking rivalry, Shinji's summons and face, Shirou's cover story, named domestic spaces, Sakura's viewpoint on the high-jump attempt, the crossbar, her fear, and the unresolved phrase about seeing the same thing.
- mirror moon effect
- The warmth survives, but Sakura's actions and obligations shift, Shirou's knowledge boundary weakens, her relationship to him is refocalized, and the high-jump memory loses both physical accuracy and the fear inside her admiration.
- Limits
- The dossier records only reviewed early-route exchanges; it does not infer Sakura's private knowledge, identify the hand mark before the text does, or resolve the referent of 'the same thing.'

The prologue and Shirou's training scenes repeatedly lose distinctions among magical categories, practitioners, circuits, conversion, structural diagnosis, and Strengthening.

- The explicit contrasts among 魔法使い, 魔法, 魔術, and 魔術使い; circuit count and conversion; inherited theory; and the successive stages and limits of Strengthening.

Magecraft as bodily danger, altered perception, and self-erasure
Across Rin's ritual conversion and Shirou's daily training, mirror moon repeatedly weakens or changes the bodily mechanism of magecraft: localized pain and organs become generic sensation, physical compression changes direction, and dangerous contact or misalignment becomes harder to perceive.
- Japanese pattern
- Componenthood, spirit-body and matter, localized sensations, self-oblivion, touchability, lung compression, internal organs, and bodily damage during circuit induction and Strengthening.
- mirror moon effect
- Exact accounts of depersonalization and bodily danger become a looser succession of magical sensations, sometimes reversing what happens to the body.
- Limits
- This dossier joins two reviewed practitioners only where the source describes magecraft through concrete bodily mechanism; it does not claim their training or physiology is identical.

Command Spell count, ruby, and expenditure state
The prologue repeatedly depends on distinguishing the three-part initial reserve, the single use already spent, the two remaining strokes, and the mark's change from omen to proof; several English lines obscure those states.
- Japanese pattern
- Explicit numerical updates, visual strokes, expenditure language, and ruby that marks the pre-summoning sign as a portent.
- mirror moon effect
- The reader can temporarily receive all three rights as expended, then a singular remaining spell, while losing the omen-to-proof transition encoded by ruby.
- Limits
- This dossier tracks the prologue's stated count and presentation; it does not infer later uses or universal mechanics beyond the reviewed text.

Fuyuki's geography, settlement history, and occult residue
The city tour, central crossroads, and Shirou's routes build Fuyuki from nested districts and historical change into the burned park's lingering affective residue; the English repeatedly changes administrative scale, spatial description, settlement tense, climate transition, and occult terms.
- Japanese pattern
- Fuyuki containing Miyama and Shinto, directly opposed residential areas with comparable character, roads and bridge links, former foreign settlement, seasonal transition, and the affective chain 怨念・妄執・無念.
- mirror moon effect
- The physical and occult map remains broadly recognizable but becomes internally inconsistent and less geographically, historically, or conceptually exact.
- Limits
- The fire's cause and deeper Grail history remain outside the current viewpoints and are not inferred here.

331 confirmed findings · 8 cited passages · 5 counterexamples
Servant detection, class, and capability boundaries
The tour distinguishes being detectable from detecting others, magical perception from eyesight, and class identity from a complete limit on skills; key English lines reverse or broaden those boundaries.
- Japanese pattern
- Strong magical energy as an easier target, class-specific limitations on remote detection, and Archer's correction through swordsmanship and magecraft.
- mirror moon effect
- Who senses whom is reversed once, and a specific cross-class skill claim becomes a general mastery of weaponry.
- Limits
- The dossier records local explanations and Rin's inferences rather than certifying a complete combat-system taxonomy.
