Talk:Mushishi

message: According to the Animesuki license database is appears Funimation has plans to license the series. It's possible this may change later, but I put this in after watching the Anisuki list for several days to make sure. Katsuhagi 22:29, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Supposed Licensing for anime 

message: Despite the fact that Mushishi is very episodic, I would argue that a summary of every episode isn't very encyclopedic. What are some other people's thoughts on this matter? Are episode summaries good and legitimate information for Wikipedia? --Zaorish 06:17, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: If not summaries, what would you suggest as an alternative to make this a more complete and informative article?  I'm not intending to be argumentative; I'm just curious. --Feiminn 06:57, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm guessing more information about the manga, production notes and information? See FLCL. --HiS oWn 23:18, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Encyclopedia value of episode summaries 

message: The episode summaries are starting to be a bit long. I suggest splitting them off to a new page soon. --SeizureDog 23:07, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  List of Mushishi episodes 

message: I added the correlation for episodes 8-14 and added the episode title for 14 (Haru to Usobuku). Hope you don't mind - I was just floating along and saw it incomplete and felt the urge to write it in. Please feel free to reinterpret the title in English if you'd like. I got the correlation from my own copies of the manga - I have volumes 1 to 6. If you'd like anything else from there I'm quite happy to help. You'll see me barking around on the net. -wao (202.156.6.54 09:37, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Relation between manga and anime 

message: Is there any hard info in the anime or manga on when the stories are set? Anime episode 2 shows a hypodermic syringe, which would mean a date after 1853, and Ginko's clothes look European. Besides, there's his hair and eye colour.
Other than that, it seems to be before any modernisation of rural Japan.

thread_title:  Date/Time 

message: ANN just reported that FUNimation is sending C&D's to a number of shows; some, like xxxHOLiC, are known FUNi properties, but Mushishi was also on that list. I think this is strong credence for indicating it has been licensed. --68.189.82.81 07:05, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Let's not speculate until we have something official, OK? No hurry to report it - C&D indicators have failed before. --Gwern  (contribs) 16:19, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: FUNimation has Mushishi?

message: I'm not familiar with this series but I wanted to pass along these links for the editors of this article to use as needed:
* http://www.icv2.com/articles/home/9704.html -- The announcement that Bugmaster will be screened at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival.
* http://www.midnighteye.com/interviews/katsuhiro_otomo.shtml -- An interview with Katsuhiro Otomo where he talks about working on Bugmaster.
Hope those are useful! -- 9muses 22:45, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Movie-related Links

message: I've always had a problem with how the word "mushi" was simply translated as "bug" or "insect", because it seems like it means more than that.  I found the following page that confirmed this for me and expanded on the meaning of mushi: http://www.iwanihana.info/2007/02/the_meaning_of_.html
I suggest we include some of that on this page, or even make Mushi as a separate topic. -- Nickistre 17:01, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I just noticed that Mushi already exists as an 80s hardcore punk album... -- Nickistre 17:04, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't think that it should be a standalone page, because it would be a dictionary definition, an example of what Wikipedia is not. However, you're right that translating the "3 mushi" kanji as just "bug or "insect" is misleading. If there's a way to incorporate reliable information about it into the article, it should be done.

I tried accessing the archive.org copy, but a 2006 version and a 2008 version have different content. I cannot read it, so am not sure which is preferable (possibly both?). Thoughts (and further research) welcome. –Quiddity (talk) 18:16, 13 July 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified (February 2018) 

message: I was going to make a link to the Mushishi anime's Wikipedia page saying "for the anime adaptation, see...", but then i noticed that there is no Mushishi anime Wikipedia page. There is just a list of every episode along side a summary of it. This seems to be quite a hole in the series' Wikipedia entries. 
Shouldn't a Mushishi (anime) Wikipedia page be made? Derpyhoi (talk) 18:55, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Unless we have enough sources covering the anime adaptation alone (sources for production, reception, and such), I'm not sure if a split is warranted. Also, the anime follows faithfully the manga's plot, so I don't know what other information we could contribute by creating another article. Xexerss (talk) 19:51, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
