Talk:Casshan

message: the original title is "Shinzo Ningen Casshern". Casshan and Kyashan are western translation/adaptment.
don't take imdb.com references like gold, coz there's many mistakes especially about japanese anime series.

message: - Translating キャシャーン by "Casshan" is a mistake, the person who did it was not good at Japanese. "キャシャン" would had been "Casshan" but "キャシャーン" is "Casshern" there is no doubt about it. "リターン" ritān is correctly romanized by "Return", and "ターン", tān, by "Turn". The same way for "キャシャーン" it is "Casshern" which is the official romanization used in Japan. This article should change it's name for "Casshern" (even if "Casshan" was used outside Japan by lame translators). A-ending katakana w/the "ー" suffix are mostly used for "-or"/"er" ending English words. Correct romanization for "デストロイヤー", desutoroiyā is "Destroyer".

message: the article states that Megaman Zero seems to be influenced by Casshern (of the reboot series), but isn't it the other way around? Megaman Zero came out in early 2000 (no later than 2003, I believe), while the reboot series came out in 2008. Wouldn't it be that it's the other way around, with Casshern taking artistic influences from Megaman Zero? It certainly looks like it. I mean, they even draw the eyes very similarly.71.190.188.238 (talk) 09:23, 5 June 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: Megaman Zero influences

message: The article could in fact use a revamp. The 1973 series, IMHO, was rather mature and well-developed for the time, and strong both in terms of references (Frankenstein, World War II, the fight against nazi-fasicsm, death camps, etc.) and visuals (Black King/Briking rather resembling a mix of Boris Karloff and Mussolini, Dr. Azuma's castle lab, architecture and design elements, the choreography of Casshern's fights).
 
I'll think about it, most definitely.

message: "The Casshern anime and manga of decades past may be a distant second to Kazuaki Kiruya’s flashy live-action Casshern film at the moment, but studio Madhouse and director Shigeyasu Yamauchi plan to return Casshern to anime form later this year"
The above was extracted from the cited article: http://www.wizarduniverse.com/040108casshern.html
There appears to be confusion among editors regarding the medium that Casshan will be returning in, but, (the article's suspicious date notwithstnding--there is at least one other source to verify it) evidence states that it's anime, so until this can be clarified with a source can people resist the urge to change it to "comic book series"? Or at least if it is a comic book series can someone please update the citation so as not to mislead? Thanks.  Casshernfan (talk) 14:46, 13 July 2008 (UTC)

message: Can we get some info as to the source? The article is not clear as whether it was a manga or a game, implying both. CFLeon (talk) 07:39, 24 September 2010 (UTC)

message: Quick question: What is the correct translation for Casshan's robotic dog? I always thought it was "Friender" BUT the recently released complete series from Sentai Filmworks translates it as "FLENDER" ?!!?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.51.212.189 (talk) 20:59, 17 March 2014 (UTC)
