Talk:Kekkaishi

message: Kekkaishi (結界師) is a manga series by Yellow Tanabe. It is published in Japan by Shogakukan and in North America in English by VIZ Media. An anime series has been recently announced through Sunrise and made its debut in October, 2006.
This phrasing seems ackward. It seems like it would be better to say something along the lines of "Kekkaishi (結界師) is a manga series by Yellow Tanabe with an anime TV series adaptation by Sunrise". It is both a manga and an anime. Why say the anime was "recently announced" when it has already begun airing? --Nitwit005 01:55, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

message: Ok just a quick question from a newb: Where are you getting the information that Kekkaishi is 15 volumes long in Japan? Last I checked there were only 12. --68.210.43.168 20:29, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

If you wish to place another episode just copy a previous episode, paste it under the last episode and be sure to change the information. You can check several other tabel formats at the various episode lists of other anime's. For example: List_of_Shij%C5%8D_Saiky%C5%8D_no_Deshi_Kenichi_episodes, List_of_Bleach_episodes and although not an anime (if you handle the Japanese standards) List_of_Avatar:_The_Last_Airbender_episodes. What about this list: List_of_Friends_episodes? I guess I'll be happy to change the whole format, maybe it's best to await other opinions. Ge4ce 10:26, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

message: It's pretty big now. I would suggest creating a characters page for all the entries, but keeping the three primary characters on the front page. The fact that they're so spread out isn't good either.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by N-Denizen (talk • contribs) 20:05, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, it's a page based purely on characters, so it would be best to include them. Ideally, you wouldn't have any primary characters on the main page at all, and would link straight to the character list. But I find that just makes it harder to learn about the show, so that's how it is now. N-Denizen (talk) 02:08, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Reviews for reception 

message: Regarding the publishers I haven't yet referenced:
* I cannot identify a website for the listed Malay publisher, PCM Comics. However, given the malay.wiki article lists it as the licensor, I see no reason to doubt the accuracy of the statement. So consider it as likely true but unverified for now.
* At the moment, the Editorial Ivrea website seems to be down; I'll try again later if someone else doesn't get to it.
* The Random House Korea website has massive holes in its catalog, especially when it comes to comics -- it is very easy to find Bookbox editions that exist on multiple seller websites that aren't listed on the publisher site. And that includes all 18 volumes of 결계사. Very irritating. For now, I used the Google Books listing for the first volume, which per guidelines is better than a commercial site, until we can get a good reference. 
* There's also a Thai edition (see the thai.wiki article), but the publisher website is blocked by my corporate overlord's firewall; I'll try again from a free terminal this weekend if someone else doesn't get to it.
And that's just the publishers we know of -- who knows what we're missing. —Quasirandom (talk) 20:07, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Ivrea was back up, so took care of that. —Quasirandom (talk) 00:51, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

text: Also, that wasn't a Thai publisher's website -- if I'd been able to see it, I would have known that it was, instead, a Thai host for scanlations. Feh. —Quasirandom (talk) 00:57, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  References for publishers 

message: Pulling out the comments from the recent assessment above:
* Missing some development/production info. At the very least there should be release information. Also Famitsu scores for the video game. The anime and game are missing plot (differences) as well. Also the terms list as such are trivial info. If a term is central to the understanding of the work as a whole, it should be combined in prose. Lead is also too short.
* The subsection for moves is inappropriate. Also it's missing any info on development/creation/release
* Too many short paragraphs
This makes a good starting point of what to work on next. Cheers. (Not sure what's missing about the release info -- the basics are there in the sections, more completely in the Lists.) —Quasirandom (talk) 21:32, 12 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  The TBDs 

message: It would be great to have some information about how the Anime compares to the Manga, e.g. which chapters does the anime cover, is the end of the anime accurate or did they create an end cause the manga has not ended yet, etc. SilentGuy (talk) 00:34, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, it happens they animated the first 13 volumes fairly closely, ending with a climax almost exactly as it is in the manga. But until we find a reliable source review that mentions this, we can't include that in the article as making a comparison is original research, as Wikipedia defines it. —Quasirandom (talk) 03:18, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Thought it's fine to include that they covered the first 13 volumes of the manga in the anime as that's a basic fact that anyone can check out. ···日本穣? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WikiProject Japan! 02:55, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
