Forum:Numerous Name Differences and Discussions

Alright, so Crunchy and Kodansha have been releasing their chapters out and there are numerous changes we have yet to address. It is of no priority but I still find it best to address them since some options given to us by the English translators are occasionally better options than how they are translated.

In addition, I'm also going to open up discussions over subjects that have already opened up a while ago, and even one I have opened up myself in the past. However, I opened up said discussion despite only seeing this translation once and now I pretty much regret doing so.

Alright, so here they are~


 * 1) Revire > Levia
 * 2) Dragon Manipulation Magic > Dragon Supremacy Magic
 * 3) Walrod Cken > Warrod Sequen
 * 4) Doriate > Doriath
 * 5) Crawford Seam > Crawford Theme
 * 6) Tartarus > Tartaros (yes, again)

If anyone wants to change the 9DG members names as well, or any other changes you think we should make, just comment so. Thank you! 09:34, March 15, 2014 (UTC)

 * 1) As said in it's own discussion, I think it's derived from the creature Leviathan, and at the time, the name was not confirmed but thanks to the recent releases, I can feel comfortable in supporting this name change.
 * 2) When I hear Manipulation, I think of what Juvia can do to Water or what Rogue can do to Shadows. Supremacy makes sense.
 * 3) It seems everyone's confused with the "Cken" and the "Shirken", but thanks to Kodansha, they presented "Sequen" which sounds cooler and kind of makes sense as to why we have so many diverse translations.
 * 4) I don't really care much for this.
 * 5) I understand I opened this discussion before, but looking at it now, it seems Hiro is wanting to use Tartaros. This was a translation used way back since Del Rey was translating it, and since the clumsy translators came along, they changed it to Tartarus. I went ahead and opened the discussion because I thought it was the right spelling, but it seems that's not necessarily the case. Plus, we have another discussion on how we're going to be using the official chapter titles with how we spell names on our wiki so if we change this, there won't be that much of a discrepancy.
