Part of the reason that Han, Luke and Leia work so well as the main trio is that they're all mistakenly under the impression that they're the sane one in a 'two idiots and the voice of reason' trio trope. Like "Somebody has to save our skins!" and someone has to stop Han and Leia from murdering eachother mid lovers spat, and someone has to keep the twins out of trouble involving force nonsense. And they're all equally as much trouble as eachother, but they all think they're the only sane person. And it's wonderful.

luke skywalker is so lucky he’s such an affable / likable person w pretty privilege bc damn the urge to hate him would have been so strong. this farm boy from a backwater crime planet made entirely of sand who has only practiced flying on simulators / planet side rolls up to the rebellion and casually destroys the death star. he undergoes two weeks of training w a senile senior frog in a swamp and is an all star jedi. babe is doing a triple kick back flip with his eyes closed and yawning. like

Something i think that the subtitles really don’t do justice to is how frequently Wilhelm is referred to as the prince. Specifically by teachers and his bodyguards. The subtitles often have people refer to Wilhelm as sir quite a bit, but they never actually use that in the show...

For example

In swedish Mr Englund says "prinsen missada ju tyvärr det här provet. Men det kan han ju ta igen vid tillfälle" which means "the prince sadly missed this test. But he can take it again on occasion", notably both referring to Wilhelm as a prince and in the third person.

Anette does the same thing here. In swedish the line is, " Vi har ordnat ett lite större rum till kronprinsen" which is "we have arranged a slightly bigger room for the crown prince". Referring to him with his title and in third person.

Here are just some more examples. August actually says "Swear, crown prince, to, in accordance to the interest of the Society, (...)" and Malin's line is “i just want to let the crown prince know, that breakfast is ending in five minutes”

Wilhelm is constantly spoken to in the third person by the teachers and staff (and August when they were being formal for the initiation into the Society). It is a very deliberate choice, and it boggles my mind that they changed it in the subtitles. I can't figure out what the point is.

The dub says it correctly, and thus the captions for the dub does as well, which only makes it stranger that they decided to change it in the subtitles. Saying "sir" is not at all equivalent to saying "prince" or "crown prince", it is a whole different title.

The fact that they keep calling him prince/crown prince is important. His role/title is constantly being reinforced by everyone around him, despite how much Wilhelm hates it. Furthermore, the teachers seem like they are not allowed to refer to him any other way.

Here, Anette first refers to him as Wilhelm, as she would any other student, then literally apologises and uses his title instead. She does care about him and wants to provide comfort, but she is bound by the rules of formality.

Another note: Translating "kronprinsen" to "your royal highness" here works fine. even if it isn't the literal translation, it is still is his proper title as opposed to "sir" which is just wrong. Though saying "your royal highness" instead of "crown prince" does miss the point that Wilhelm's title has changed; from prince to crown prince. As well as how wrong that probably feels for Wilhelm. Crown prince was Erik's title, yet everyone now refers to him that way.

What I don't understand is why they would change the subtitles to "sir". It doesn't make sense, nothing is gained from the change other than a loss of context.
