The percentage of the number of equivalence translation is 66 data or 86.85 % from 76 data. And the non-equivalence of translation consists of 9 data of Character and characterization, and 1 data of setting of place. The percentage of the number of non equivalence translation is 10 data or 13.15 % from 76 data. So, the translations are dominated as equivalence translation.
