Thanks for translating.

I have this feeling we're going to find Sakurako as part of the demon kings army having failed to have grasped that this isn't a dream.

Wait, why avant-garde didn't make sense?
And how it can be related to "unique"?

From what I can find, avant-garde means innovative/experimental. Calling samurai experimental didn’t seem right.
I also got vanguard which has a similar meaning.

Ok, in Italian, both for avant-garde and vanguard we use the same exact word (avanguardia), that's why I didn't understand the problem at first.
Could it be the same in Japanese? Samurai can actually be a vanguard warrior.

Yeah I agree with RedEco. I think shes saying she’s a front-line offensive class (i.e. that you would put into the front row in a Final Fantasy-style JRPG as opposed to a mage or archer that you’d put in the back row).

The use of ”avant-garde” to mean ”artistically innovative“ is a metaphor, comparing the artist to a soldier who goes out ahead of everyone else into dangerous territory.

Thanks for translating these by the way! I’m glad someone picked this up.
