Isn't it a bit premature to render out the character's name as 'Luxu', or has there been an actual official English printing of the name as such? I ask, because 'luxuria' is normally rendered as ルクスリア, and ルシュ doesn't quite match. 82.36.144.164 17:45, 19 July 2016 (UTC)
- Which translation would you propose? We're going with this one because it fits the scheme, most of the fanbase uses it and there is a hint in the game files. The official translation is still 2-3 months away at this point. --ShardofTruth 08:27, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
