The original title in Japanese is Rasetsu no Tsuki (“Rasetsu's Flower”) …


I'm no expert, so correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't "Rasetsu no Tsuki" mean "Rasetsu's Moon"?

You are correct, though Casey is half right. The original title is actually Rasetsu no Hana, which DOES mean "Rasetsu's Flower." Not sure where she got "Tsuki" from.

Kind of disappointed if it's that weak, because Yurara was a series with wasted potential, and I was hoping Rasetsu would pick up the slack. j

Maybe she got it mixed up with the full title of Yurara, ie "Yurara no Tsuki" ? I don't know...

"Yurara's Moon" and "Rasetsu's Flower" are certainly better titles than just "Yurara" or "Rasetsu" (both unfamilar words that mean nothing to me), and express a connection between them better as they're both in [name]'s [object] form. Why the meddling, Viz?
