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

8,248Confirmed findings
2,377Borderline calls withheld
150Counterexamples recorded

All 18,514 previously published findings have been re-reviewed. 7,771 findings were withdrawn, and 154 await further source context.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.

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.

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.

Shinji's status performance, restraint, and displaced aggression

Open dossierClose dossier
Permanent link to this dossier #

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.

Taiga's performed comedy, household authority, and protective care

Open dossierClose dossier
Permanent link to this dossier #

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

Open dossierClose dossier
Permanent link to this dossier #

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 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.

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.

Shirou's justice ideal, inherited rules, and concrete conduct

Open dossierClose dossier
Permanent link to this dossier #

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.

Shirou's fire memories, bodily survival, and survivor responsibility

Open dossierClose dossier
Permanent link to this dossier #

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.

Saber’s knightly pride, independent agency, and negotiated obedience

Open dossierClose dossier
Permanent link to this dossier #

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

Open dossierClose dossier

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

Open dossierClose dossier
Permanent link to this dossier #

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

Open dossierClose dossier
Permanent link to this dossier #

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

Open dossierClose dossier
Permanent link to this dossier #

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.

Caster's technical supremacy, predatory control, and cultivated cruelty

Open dossierClose dossier
Permanent link to this dossier #

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.

Kuzuki's teacherly composure, ethics, assassin body, and detachment

Open dossierClose dossier
Permanent link to this dossier #

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.

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.

Gilgamesh's royal contempt, ownership, and tactical calculation

Open dossierClose dossier
Permanent link to this dossier #

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.

Lancer's pride, loyalty, battle joy, and breezy care

Open dossierClose dossier
Permanent link to this dossier #

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

Open dossierClose dossier
Permanent link to this dossier #

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

Open dossierClose dossier
Permanent link to this dossier #

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.

Summoner, Servant, and the negotiation of authority

Open dossierClose dossier
Permanent link to this dossier #

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

Open dossierClose dossier
Permanent link to this dossier #

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

Open dossierClose dossier
Permanent link to this dossier #

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.

Magecraft as bodily danger, altered perception, and self-erasure

Open dossierClose dossier
Permanent link to this dossier #

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

Open dossierClose dossier

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.

The English narrows concealment to dematerialization and incorrectly makes that capability part of the general test.Open in script context →

Saber’s Noble Phantasm, Sakura’s strongest card

「自然、我々も霊体に戻る。 そうなったサーヴァントは守護霊のようなものだ。レイラインで繋がっているマスター以外には観測されない。 もっとも、会話程度は出来るから偵察ならば支障はないが」

“Naturally, we would return to spirit form. A Servant in that state is like a guardian spirit. We cannot be observed by anyone except the Master we are connected to by the leyline. We can still talk though, so it’s no problem if we’re going scouting.”

「ふうん……で、アンタはどうなの? 他のサーヴァントの位置、判る?」 「マスター、私のクラスは何か忘れたのか。遠く離れた敵の位置を探るなど、騎士あがりにできるものか」 ……ま、そうだろう。 アーチャーの魔力はそう強力じゃない。 遠く離れた敵を探る、なんて魔力持ちはキャスターのサーヴァントぐらいなものだと思う。

“Hmm… So, what about you? Can you tell where the other Servants are?” “Master, have you forgotten my class? Sensing distant enemies isn’t a job for a knight.” …Well, I guess not. Archer’s magical energy isn’t that strong. I expect only the Servant Caster would have enough magical energy to locate enemies from a distance.

もとからある土地・建物に手を加え、外敵から自らを守るのが結界。 それはあくまで“すでにあるもの”に手を加えるだけの変化にすぎない。

A boundary field is something applied to an existing area or building to protect oneself from outside enemies. But it is merely a transformation applied to what already exists.

「……令呪は令呪に反応する。マスターであるのなら、誰がマスターであるかは出会えば感じられる、という事か。だが、それなら凛にも相手が識別できるのではないか?」

“…The Command Spell reacts to other Command Spells. So that must mean that if you are a Master, you should be able to recognize other Masters when you see them. Then wouldn’t that mean you should be able to identify the other Master too?”

「そうなの? それじゃあここから遠坂邸が見える、アーチャー?」 「いや、流石に隣町までは見えない。せいぜい橋あたりまでだな。そこまでならタイルの数ぐらいは見てとれる」

“Is that so? So can you see my house from here, Archer?” “No, I can’t see the neighboring town from here. At most, I can see as far as the bridge. At that range, I can count the number of tiles.”
