Talk:Ikki Tousen

message: I think this should be renamed under Battle Vixens, which is the English title. Currently, the list of manga has Battle Vixens, which has no page, while the list of anime has Ikki Tousen. They need to be standardized. Fadeblue 22:44, 30 May 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: The manga came first. The anime is based on it. The manga has been released in the US as "Battle Vixens" and the anime as "Ikki Tousen." The article should be about the manga first, and talk about the anime as an adaptation of it. Marshall Stax (talk) 19:15, 15 February 2009 (UTC)

text: Yes, Ikki Tousen is the romaji title of the series. However, the manga (the primary work) has been licensed in English by two different licensors (Madman doesn't distribute the series in North America, mind you) as Battle Vixens. Therefore, the title of the article is Battle Vixens per WP:MOS-AM and WP:USEENGLISH. 「ダイノガイ千？！」(Dinoguy1000) 04:05, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Sad, searching the internet for "ikkitousen" is way more useful than "battle vixens".  I almost didn't recognize the material when I read the title. --98.223.105.100 (talk) 21:19, 28 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: This should be renamed.  The anime is licensed as "Ikkitousen".  This means that "Ikkitousen" now qualifies as an English title (English titles are allowed to include foreign words and still be considered English titles).  Moreover, "Ikkitousen" is clearly the most common name.  WP:USEENGLISH is not an excuse to use a less common name instead of a more common name just because it's "English".

replies: text: Agreed; Ikkitousen should be the name, for the reasons Ken specified.  See also the "Japanese Name" discussion, further down on this Talk page.  Memetics (talk) 12:17, 1 September 2015 (UTC)

message: The series was criticised by the Chinese government for being an innacurate portrayal of the Three Kingdoms history.  Some poses have also been copied or traced over from Tengo Tenghe.
I've heard of the Tenjho Tenghe part, but not the Chinese gov't rumor. Source? 64.121.36.5 08:55, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

message: This article needs to be given some cleanup and reassessment to fit Wiki standards, but sadly the series(as a whole) itself is very tricky to summarize, mostly due to the fact that the first season was done in a half hearted manner filled with pointless fanservice being the main plot in every other episode and the second season being a having a more serious approach with change in character behavior(when compared to the first season). In short, the change in directors for the respective seasons sent the difference in the two seasons into overkill mode...and not to forget the manga itself, on which the anime is not based on plot to plot. The least anyone can do is wait until the third season comes out and reconsider editing this article and doing the respective changes based on how the new season sheds a new light on this series.

thread_title:  discontinuity ruins the series 

message: Considering the picture and manga titles, I'd say this manga/anime is either hentai, etchi, or harem. Does someone who know more about this series agree with me? モーモー?talk to moo 20:05, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: It's not any of the three, it does have various moments of ecchiness (is that how you say it?? xD) but the series on the whole is a lot more serious, more focused on the storyline and the action than anything else. And on a side note, completely ignore the manga titles, as TokyoPop seems to like to make everything into some sex game or other.122.107.118.32 (talk) 12:40, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Manga titles? 

message: Sorry! I made a goof-up... I believe this article is about the anime, not the manga. Could somebody move this back to "Ikki Tousen"? モーモー?talk to moo 20:14, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Is this still something that you want done or is this an out of date request?  If it is something that you still want done, an admin will need to do it - you can ask at WP:RM or leave a message on my talk page - just don't do a copy/paste move. --B (talk) 22:27, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

message: Ok. This is possibly the BIGGEST flaw of the article. Well, first of all, I have never seen ANY of the series content, but yet I've nearly finished the Moss Roberts translation of said title. So with that: what battles from the book were really adapted? And what exactly happened at the Battle of Red Cliffs? Was it the same old "Zhuge-Liang-summons-southeast-wind-Huang-Gai-sets-fire-to-Cao-Cao's-ships-with-fake-surrender" concept, or what? Seriously, all of THIS is the big flaw, here! Is the series REALLY based off of ANYTHING from Romance of the Three Kingdoms? I think NOT, as of now!68.28.67.229 (talk) 22:08, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Do you really think they would completely base the series off the whole Romance of the Three Kingdoms? If people wanted to read that, they'd read the book, not a anime/manga adaptation of it, as anything short of like 20 seasons or like 50 volumes would be seriously cutting out parts of the story in the first place. This series is only based loosely on the 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms'. 122.107.118.32 (talk) 12:43, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

message: Why is this not titled "Ikki-tousen"?  "Battle Vixens" is used *only* for the manga and for the UK video release.  The Japanese title is far more widely used.  Google gives me 3.7 million hits for "ikkitousen" and 63800 for "battle vixens", so it should be named "Ikki Tousen" just because it's the most commonly used title in English.
