[ja epsode 27] proofreading

I read the Japanese translation and have doubts on some wordings. Of course I'm not Japanese native, but some must be founded.

  • P04, 「試してるつもり?」
    I'm confused: taken in the usual natural way, it means "are you trying to test me?"
    I expected 「試すつもり」 at the very least, but 「試してみない?」 or 「試してみる?」 sounds best to me.

  • P04 「これまで嘘なんかついたことないのに」
    Does 「一生 嘘なんかついたことないのに」 work too? If it does, maybe it would make the comedy aspect more present.
    Note for non Japanese speakers: respectively "I have never lied until now/to this day(?)" and "I have never lied in my whole life"

  • P05, 「このバグを修正しなきゃ」
    that approximately translates to "gotta fix this bug", and there's nothing about permanently.
    how about 「そのバグを修正してやる!」? to get closer to "I'll fix your bug!" (angry tone with やる)

  • I have noticed that overall, the translation keeps a minimum politeness (non-conflict) level.
    How about some more informal stuff in places?
    Especially for Pepper. I have a hard time imagining chaos witches being very tactful all the time. For example: P04: 「ええ いらないかも」 → 「まあ いらないんだ」 (maybe not a good example, but it's the idea)

  • Conversely, I'm not sure I find the tailor polite enough when he should be. 「動きまわるのをやめていだだけますかな」 → how about removing the な?
    He must remain formal when speaking to her Majesty, even if irritated!

  • P06, 「アンサツ ヲ ケイカク シテ シマスカ」
    Shouldn't this be 「アンサツ ヲ ケイカク シテ イマスカ」? (typo イ/シ)
    Katakana for the robot is so cool, by the way. It reminds me of famicom!
