Nonetheless, it's possible that someone who speaks very little English might gain a slightly better understanding of a text - or at least get a better idea of what the text or website is about - by using one of these translators.

(Note: I can’t decipher what he’s really saying – here’s what it translates to on Babel Fish: When the suspicion they were finishing, was shown and a scroll to them.).
Oboro : This can’t be true! Iga and Kouga are no longer at peace? (Babel Fish translates this segment to “in one dispute”) This did not have to happen! I’m certain that Gennosuke-sama will think the same.

Nenki : Rousai, what’s causing the delay in there? Tenzen is waiting for the scroll… What’s this! This is making me unhappy! (Babel fish translation: “Rendered unhappy!” – maybe Tenzen’s unhappy?).
Nenki : How much time have you spent with this Kouga woman? Huh? What is this? (Babel translation: “It has how much time, hein, Kouga woman? I felt its lack.
