@ Minako: why did you remove the review-link? --HKK 12:00, 7 March 2007 (EST)

I'd rather link to the review on our sites than a review off site. ~Mina

I didn't find any, thats why i put in one from somewhere else. I think we should just put up stuff from our own network - it's not fair towards the users of an encyclopedia, is it? --HKK 13:59, 9 March 2007 (EST)

Song list

I'll be organizing the song list by anime, manga or both. Then by who it was performed by and in order of appearance. I have to make a table for it, though. That way, it's easier to see what was done, when, by who and all that. - Ritsuka/Kristen (March 28, 2007)

Yea that'll be alright. I've been correcting some small things again that caught my eye (btw, it's IZUMI Rio. i looked it up and IZUMI is his last name). if youre enough into the manga, you maybe could add a sub-section to the Characters with those who only appear in the manga at all. --HKK 10:47, 29 March 2007 (EDT)

That's wrong. When he was alive, IZUMI was his family name. As a Shinigami, IZUMI is his first name. All the names of the Shinigami are changed. Meroko's was changed to Meroko Yui from Moe Rikyou. (Mixing the letters) And Izumi's name was made vice versa. Making IZUMI his first name and RIO his family name. So no, IZUMI is his first name as a Shinigami. Arina explains this transition in the manga side panels and it's noted on several OFF. FMwS sites. So, I changed it back. Arina's explination: "The Shinigami aren't supposed to associate their Shinigami life with their life when they were alive, so the Shinigami controllers change their names. Moe's name is re-lettered, and Izumi's name is made vice versa. Takuto's name isn't changed because he is not yet a complete Shinigami."

And eventually, I'm going to make a seperate article for the manga all together and move all the manga info I have from this article to that one. Making this article strictly about the anime. (The anime cut out a lot of explanitory detail.) - Ritsuka/Kristen (March 29, 2007)

Alright. If you start the individual character pages as well, you might divide each page into two sections, showing differences (if any) between manga and anime. Also, something else: if you're writing other articles in which characters with Japanese names occur, i'd like to ask you to use the constellation i introduced here (SURNAME first name(s)), just in order to make it clear (as there are unclarities when not capitalizing either name). --HKK 06:02, 30 March 2007 (EDT)


Family names always go first. For familiar characters, I've been using the first name only because saying "Then Kouyama became a singer~!" would confuse people. But characters like "Wakaouji Keiichi" are known only as their family save for rare occasions, so I use the family name. It's all a matter of what they're recognized as. Calling someone by a name that's not recognized is confusing and silly. Ritsuka Aoyagi (March 30, 2007)

i actually was referring to mentioning the whole name (like in a character listing) ^^ --HKK 01:26, 31 March 2007 (EDT)

Now I'm just confused. ;_;' Please restate what you're addressing. Ritsuka Aoyagi (April 2, 2007)

you said family names always go first and that you use the more popular names. i meant that the "always goes first" is not clear to all people, especially not to those new to anime/manga/japanese culture; thats why i meant you should capitalize family names generally (especially in an encyclopedia like this). the other thing was that i was referring to lists where you meantion the whole name, not only the more popular one.
is it clearer now? ^^ --HKK 11:22, 2 April 2007 (EDT)
