 * -“This world is filled with lies…” -“In this world, there are people that lie as if they were just breathing.” -“In this world, there are people who use a meaningless lie as a way to deceive their companion and use that person’s name’s value to make money.” -“It’s about you!”
 * -“Daimyojin fishpaste…” -“I don’t believe in pros. But… neither do I think it should be amateurs.” *Note: Daimyojin were the equivalent of nobles, worshiped as gods until around the time of the Roman Empire and Christianity; the shogun generals were above them. *Note: Our translator says he believes that when this belief started becoming taboo, that the daimyojin were “punished brutally” and then put on trial.
 * *Note: Our translator believes fishpaste was popular at the time, making it a noble cuisine of sorts for its context. *Note: The last quote is best interpreted as, “[While,] I don’t believe in pros [to get it done]. But… neither do I think it should be left to amateurs [to do it],” according to our translator. *Interpretation: The last quote is basically saying that the speaker doesn’t believe there is such a thing as “professionals” to do things but that neither should such tasks be left to “amateurs”, trying to make a distinction that the speaker is neither. I believe it is a “I have to take matters into my own hands,” situation. I could be wrong.
