Eternal City's translation isn't intelligible gibberish but a few parts seem Google translated. Some other bits are almost correct but seems like the translator didn't have context when he was working on it so he made some dumb mistakes.

Very obvious Google translated lines when the voice at the beginning talks about punishment for things you don't remember or don't know if they were real.
After the tutorial Ann says "I'm awake I'm awake" but she's actually saying "Oh he's awake", referring to the player character who just woke up. There are more instances of translated lines where she talks about herself like "what if I keep forgetting what has happened before?" but she's actually talking about the player not remembering how he got here and what would happen if he keeps forgetting things. These kind of errors seem frequent on Ann's lines, Antoneva's lines are fine. Most likely two different people worked on the translation and one of them doesn't actually know Chinese/Japanese.
The he/she thing was dumb since a simple rewrite would have looked better but not really a problem once you input your name since they start using that instead.
There are also some odd choices like leaving untranslated "kekkai" instead of just saying barrier.
Overall the translation is readable and shouldn't be the reason why you don't play the game. The errors are easily spotted and you can understand what was actually said by the context. The story is interesting enough to put up with them.

From what I've seen the first 10 rolls are rigged. The 1st will always give you a full Rank C character, 2nd random item, 3rd full Rank B character, 4th random item and 5th a fragment of a Rank A character. This fragment is the most important part of the reroll because on your 10th roll you're gonna get the second fragment of that character to unlock it, so you want to make sure you get a good character or someone you like there.
