User talk:Urutapu

Are you the anon user from earlier today? Drake Clawfang 04:01, 10 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Ah. Well, welcome then! If I knew the coding I'd give ya the template for it. :p Drake Clawfang 04:04, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

Looking back, sorry about being a jerk earlier today. Drake Clawfang 05:50, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

Laugh Break
嘲り笑う 【あざけりわらう】 (v5u) to laugh to scorn

Fits with her personality, so I thought it was possible. Plus, stunning her would shut up that constant mocking she does, so..."Laugh Break". Not even Mr. Lister's Koromon  survived intact.  05:08, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

The way I was taught, "n" before a b- or p- kana is romanized and pronounced as "m". So, you get "Kumbira" and stuff like that. I assume we're using Wāpuro rōmaji as the standard, right? If there's something I'm missing, please explain. Thanks! Glorious  CHAOS!  22:51, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
 * See, I thought we were using wapuro because of how we do long and combination vowels: here and here. On a personal note, I greatly dislike using Hepburn pretty much for that reason. To me, one of the best things about the Japanese language is how regular it is, and Hepburn manages to stuff English's randomness and seemingly arbitrary rules into that.
 * Never mind. Looking at the wapuro rules again, "n" is always romanized as "n" anyway, so the m thing is just in traditional Hepburn, I guess. The only problem here, then, is whether it's worth mentioning (maybe as a notation in the article), that the romaji are pronounced as "m" instead of "n". What do you think?

We could use "Threshold" or "Interstice", which sound relatively more bad-ass than "In-between". Or we could even use "The Guide to the Interstice", as he is trying to lead the worlds into nothingness kind of. Glorious  CHAOS!  23:34, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

Template:InfoWeapon358
I created a new template for the weapons. Also, please check the last revision before this one and see if you like it better.00:26, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Nihongo
If you use the romaji as the name, you don't have to use it again in the romaji part. Just do || and go straight from the kanji to the lit. Glorious  CHAOS!  00:06, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

358/2 days weapon abilities
The template you've created is awesome. But wouldn't it be more accurate if, instead of ability, it was Ability Unit 1, Ability Unit 2, Ability Unit 3 ? This way it's easier to understand that the weapons don't have the abilities themselves but you need to equip an ability unit. What do you think?

Warlock
Yes, it does usually translate it as warlock, but Saix has the Berserker job - he's a man possessed by a demon, not a man who employs demonic arts. "Demoniac" or some form of demon-man is a lot closer to the intended meaning, I think. Glorious  CHAOS!  02:42, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Binting
Do you have any idea what "Binting Dog" could be? Glorious  CHAOS!  23:26, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Final Mix Synthesis
For the new Final Mix Synthesis items, I'm using the translations given in KH2, for several reasons;
 * 1) KH1's synthesis was hastily translated, as seen with Power Crystal and the Goo (which was "droplets", as in bigger shards), and the Mystery materials
 * 2) KH2 is more recent and uses many of the same Japanese item names, indicating that the translations have been "corrected".
 * 3) The images for stuff like Goo in KH2 depict something that is not slime.

Especially since most of the FM1 translations's were badly fitting translations trying to use the KH1 naming system (see again, Power Goo and Energy Stone), I think this will work best and keep the materials as organized as possible. However, your opinion would be much appreciated. Glorious  CHAOS!  21:53, 24 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Thanks a lot for your help, by the way. Glorious  CHAOS!  07:34, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
 * "Serenity" is a synonym for "Satisfaction", so that's a suitable translation and does not need a "lit". Glorious  CHAOS!  06:25, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
