Talk:Kenichi: The Mightiest Disciple

message: I've only watched the anime, but I've noticed a plethora of references to Norse mythology.  Ragnarok is direct from Norse Mythology, and many of the members of Ragnarok are named after members of the norse pantheon (Thor, Loki, Odin, etc).  Ironically, however, I've also noticed that the members of the Kenichi's dojo bear closer representatives to those same norse dieties the ragnarok claim as their namesake.  The dojo's leader, Hayato, evokes the image of the norse "all-father", odin, for example.  In episode 44, where you see a lot of him, you can notice that one of his eyes is eclipsed in darkness.  Similarly, the norse odin traded his eye for wisdom, and thus only had one eye.  In all the flash-backs to miu's youth, you see her and her father traveling through snowy lands.  Similarly Kensei Ma evokes the image of Loki the trickster, and Sakaki that of Thor, those less vividly than the parallel between Hayato and Odin.
Is this worth mentioning?  I noticed a single reference to the norse pantheon in this wiki.  Such a single and consistent influence seems to merit greater attention, or at least hot-links to the respective norse name-sakes.

replies: text: It should be considered. Could also be placed as trivia quote? "Many names in the Shijō Saikyō no Deshi Kenichi anime are from the Norse myth. For example; A group within the anime is called Ragnarok, members are name Thor, Loki and Odin." Just my thoughts, no idea if this was the meaning of the creators of the anime.Ge4ce 15:12, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

message: # Kenichi joins the dojo after seeing Miu fight.
# Daimonji is not karate senpai, he is just a first year student at the karate club.
# He defeats Daimonji after learning a move from Miu, also this is after he joins the dojo.

thread_title:  Storyline errors 

message: Apparently, the regular editor of this page is referencing to the anime only. Though this results in no spoilers, but the lack of info for the manga version is obvious.
:Well, if your knowledgeable on the manga, then your free to add some info. Unfortunately, I don't buy this manga (I do, however, know some new info and characters in the manga, but only a little, so I can't add them till I find more info). So, I can only deal with what I can get my hands on, but I would have no problem if others added some info on what is currently going on in the manga (with references of course, i.e. chapter pages). And spoilers is not really an issue for these types of articles. DarkAngel007 18:32, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Emphasis on Anime Version?? 

message: Shouldn't at least the body of the article read Ken'ichi, with apostrophe? (I only see it with apostrophe in the literal translation of the Japanese name, in italics)
Also, should Ken'ichi be a redirect to this article, as Kenichi?

thread_title:  Kenichi? 

message: Do you think this article could use the Japanese text for some of the terms used in this anime? eg.dou, seikuken, etc. If so, I'd be happy to oblige, but I'm not sure what the normal conventions are on things like this... Konamaiki 08:13, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: That would be nice as there is already one term with the Japanese characters. () You just need to be sure that there is a source to go with it. Ge4ce 10:55, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
