Favorite lines?
Hats off to xseed translation/localization. I'm always impressed by the quality of the English text in the Trails games. The dialogue sounds so natural, it's hard to find any lines that sound clunky and remind you it's a translation.

And some of it's golden: I was laughing to myself at the old man calling Emma a "scorching home room hottie." I don't know what it says in the original Japanese but I'm a translator/linguist and everyone can imagine other phrases with the same meaning someone less gifted could have used like "red-hot classmate."

Idk, does anyone else have any favorite lines?

"Optimal Bounce Vectors" is hands down the best line in the game.

I really liked vincent and sariffa trolling him all the time, the latest i remember is when margarita observing campus from roof and vincent comments as someone is sucking joy from him at this moment. I also liked whole blade event with Sara, pretty funny aswell, i have been immidiately reminded of Estelle and Josette.

You can tell he loved getting to say "in our hearts the flames of silent anger"

Second form: GALE!

More seriously, I liked the exchange between Rean and the Viscount Victor S. Arseid. The duel and the blademaster's words were important to Rean to accept himself and understand his master's teaching.

Ahah... I think you are finally starting to understand. Without knowing how to properly apply it, it has no real meaining. However, when you deny the power you already possess, you're only shortchanging yourself.[...] Stand up, dust yourself off, and step forward. Grapple with that fear each day, if that's what it takes.

Jealous Machias, after night meeting with cpt. Claire in Roer: So while we were enjoying a quiet evening, you were carousing with a beautiful woman, were you? You lucky son of a... I mean, for shame, Rean. We're here representing the academy on a field study!

I laughed when Sara said about Capt Claire "instead you have the exciting opportunity to help this lady and her goons with their evil schemes"
