>idk if you're trolling but ruby text isn't used to say the exact same thing twice.
Holy shit EOP-kun, why didn't you just spend two seconds to google this?

>Ruby characters or rubi characters (Japanese: ルビ; rōmaji: rubi; Korean: 루비; romaja: rubi) are small, annotative glosses that are usually placed above or to the right of logographic characters of languages in the East Asian cultural sphere, such as Chinese hanzi, Japanese kanji, and Korean hanja, to show the logographs' pronunciation

Apparently your interpretation of this scene stems entirely from a misunderstanding of what ruby text is. Yes, some chuuni writes sometimes use it to have double meanings but the normal usage is indeed "to say the exact same thing twice". Again, the ruby text is to indication pronunciation. There's nothing "haha funny" here. It seems the TL left it in English because he personally thought it was funny and didn't understand the usage or did but didn't care.

I can't be disappointed if I already have zero expectations.
