one BAD example was "Chrno Crusade" with missing "o" from Japanese title but added later when ADV released manga and DVD years later.... |
And yet some fans STILL think that's the actual name. 
But a translation would be fine, I just hope they keep it as original as possible... I trust Geneon to leave the uncensored versions uncensored... Half of the greatness of the series is how violent it is.

Apparently they left it as Chrno in several other countries, such as SG and Aussy Land, so to them that's how it's spelled :O

I'm so confused how come there two red dashes? Is it an error with server?

Well people who have never heard of the series in question probably. If you didn't already know then how would you understand the two red spaces? But I think that a majority knew after #2, probably a plurality after the first clue.

The red "Na" in "Naku" is part of the official spelling.

Hear that sound? I believe it's the joke flying over your head.

That was the idea, Clue #7 was supposed to give it away. Unfortunately Clue #2 was too easy.
Did anyone get Clue #8 ? :-p |
I never saw clue number 8. Was the clue the fact that there wasn't a clue or something? I guess it was demoned away.

It should have been _ _ _ _ - _ _ _ _ - _ _ _ (4-4-3)
So sorry about that, my fault.

"Mistake", right.... Admit it, you did it on purpose to see our reactions.

Er, what was wrong with Clue #7? That was perfectly fine and there was no spacing involved. As for the current clue, I've seen both Koro Ni and Koroni (I'm partial to the former, but I believe the other is also useable).

Since we're all talking higurashi anyway, speaking of the red Na, anyone have the character for that in japanese in a nice avatar form? I could use something like that for this site... Been meaning to make a username for a while now.

I hope they make a second season, OVA, or movie. I need closure, and some more damn explanations. Why do the Japanese love their damn ambiguous endings.
