Talk:Omnislash

Some of the stuff removed from Sneasel's version of the page would be valid for image captions, but pretty much none of it was appropriate for a mechanics section. 21:45, 24 January 2015 (UTC)

Help from two other wikis
Oh woot, some news of me already doing damage that needs to be reverted. Go me for having shit being bashed on TV Tropes, Koei Wiki and whatever wiki there is (I bet Sourenga is shaking his head so much right now).

Anyway aside from the incoming "kick Sneasel out for his bullshit deeds petition", I've been on FFWiki and SmashWiki's pages for Cloud's attacks along with this wiki back and forth.

So far, aside from me feeling good about your personal take on translating Kyougiri (from "Bane-slash" to "Wicked Cutter" to "Ominous Cutter" to "Misfortune Slash/Cutter"), we need to fix the bullshit with Choukyuu Bushin Hazan ("HA! More like YOU need to fix it Sneasel; your fault all the way ****er").

I get where you have the "war-god" and "command" translations (a la MM/Rockman X's Zero's translations for Tenkuuha, Rekkouha and Tenshouha on the MMDBWiki), but alas. I personally like to be a bit more precise in those cases. When you say "war-god", would you mean "Bushin, Senjin, or Gunshin?" (Martial God, War God or Army God?) I would personally prefer to use "Martial God" to literally translate Bushin in that case. As for "Command/Supreme", I get that it means "have command over something"), but using Supreme seems to be a shorter and more accurate adjective compared to "command". Plus, it might get mixed up with "meirei" or any of those two kanji that make it up.

This is one reason why I would translate "issen" as "single flash" or "brandish" instead of just "flash" (as well as "senkou" as glint). I personally wouldn't want to mix it up with just "sen" alone.

I've already personally settled my issues with "kyuu", since the confusion comes from the fact that that kanji alone literally means "study". I've drawn from the "kiwameru" part as my decision (to do to the extreme), and ultimate is normally "kyuukyoku" in Japanese.

Long story short in all of this bullshit, I'm waiting to see what proposals SmashWiki and FFWiki would propose before I have to go flip-flop back and forth between two wikis with inconsistent translations for this bullshit.

I'm sure you're going to laugh at my face for all of this and go "WROOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG" --SneaselSawashiro (talk) 02:53, 6 April 2016 (UTC)
 * I don't have much insight in this matter but in these cases we are normally using the FFwiki's translations for consistency (not sure why this isn't the case for Cross-slash though), so a translation issue like this should be solved over there. Since you've already opened a discussion there maybe Kryten can chime in. -- 09:27, 6 April 2016 (UTC)
