Philemon {Phil} 🪷🍋 Caleb's little sister

CN ➕ EN: Oneiric Protocol (Side-by-side Comparison + Translation Thread) // contains spoilers below Part 3/?: The first time Xia Yizhou mentions having a sister 📌 In the second image, it should be noted that the original CN phrase of “… androids simply do not have relatives” was completely re-written into “… androids aren’t capable of developing romantic feelings.” The familial context was removed. Some extra lore about the Metropolis having revised laws every month also got cut, which is such a shame because it’s a really interesting piece of worldbuilding information :(

[Side-by-side Comparison + Re-Translation Thread] CN ➕ EN: Oneiric Protocol // contains spoilers below Part 1/? 📌 In the second image, Xia Yizhou specifically uses the word “关联” when picking a name, and this word translates to “connection/link” which the EN text omitted. The original CN sentence shows that Xia Yizhou didn’t really like the name MC gave him because it sounds too impersonal, and has a lack of a connection to MC. Therefore, he chose the name “big brother,” for himself, and the unspoken sentiment behind this decision is: “brother” creates a familial tie & relation to us—it sounds like we have a close relationship, which is why he prefers this name > Xia Yizhou. 🥰
