I think having the original Japanese text would improve the accuracy of the checking. As you guys may well be aware, there are similar words with totally different meanings. Also, not everyone writes the same way in romanji.

I don't think they need immediate attention. For the moment, I would like to concentrate on fixing the technical data, so the height chart can come later. I really don't want to impose on you since I can imagine how tricky those can be. Perhaps when I'm completely done with a certain page, then I'll make a request to have the images on that particular page to be done. But due to my short attention span, I tend to jump from page to page so it might take a while before I complete a page.

Ryuki, sorry, but some of the old images bothered me so I had to re-upload them with a more cleaner version, which removed the height comparison. The black background really bothered me since I thought that doesn't suit a page with white background. Anyway, I'm re-uploaded the images for the hyper zoanoid team 5 ( http://www.japan-legend.com/wiki/index.php?title=Hyper_Zoanoid_Team_5 ) along with Zx-tole. I hope you don't mind. Also uploaded an image of Aptom in the lost numbers section (Aptom Trinity Blast and Evil Aptom).

Ah, no problem. first is overall height (excluding spikes) second is overall width (excluding spikes) third is weight (before fusion)

Well, if you insist, then I guess I will have to impose on you. I'm currently working on the technical data for the zoalords, and I noticed that some of the pictures of the Zoalords are either outdated or unclear. Additionally, black isn't really a background I would choose seeing that the wiki page is white. As seen in this page: http://www.japan-legend.com/wiki/index.php?title=Zoalord I've re-used the images that were previously provided. Some zoalords doesn't even have their own image. Also, please feel free to change the term "Alternative" for the other zoalords as I'm currently at a loss at how to label them accordinly. And lastly, do you think I should re-write the descriptions for the technical page of each zoalords to contain what is written on the Data files instead? These descriptions were only copied from the Japanese wiki.

Ooh! I didn't know that folder existed. Thanks. As for the other works, I don't think I remember doing them. I know there were a few that I did, but some volumes for translation didn't include the data files. Now if only I manage to squeeze in more time at home so I could photoshop these to fit the wiki. It's been a long time since I heated up for a project like this.

Moving forward, I know it's not my place to request this, but I thought I'd at least somehow try. But would it be possible to request for the data files that are featured after every guyver volume? I could use them to enhance the wiki. I'm actually looking for later volumes that the VDF did not cover.

Well, finished editing the Zx-tole page. I've created separate pages for Zx-tole and Neo Zx-tole like how we did it with the other zoanoids. Then using these pages as a template, attached them to the character page of Zx-tole under the Technical Data section. I have also done the same for the Lost Numbers page. Here's the details of what I did: Created Zx-tole technical page attached Zx-tole technical page to Zx-tole section of Hyper Zoanoid. Created Neo Zx-tole technical page attached Neo Zx-tole technical page to Neo Zx-tole section of Lost Number page. Attached technical page of Zx-tole and Neo Zx-tole to Zx-tole character page. Reformatted Lost Number page to adopt template similar to that of Zoanoid. Reformatted the Lost Number section of the Zoaform page to redirect to Lost Numbers Updated Aptom page to include technical data from each individual aptom forms, as used in the Lost Number page. Created Biofreezer page attached biofreezer page to the Lost Number page. I hope you approve of this. Although content-wise, they still need a lot of work. Still trying to figure out how i can fit the biofreezer page as a template into Hayami's page.

I think I know how we can satisfy both of our conditions. Since we have a technical page for Zx-tole and a Neo Zx-tole, perhaps we can use these pages as a template for the technical section of Zx-tole's character page. I'll go work on it now and see how it looks.

I don't know, since we are dealing with Zx-tole as a character instead of a zoanoid, I think it would be better to put them in together. If it were to be 2 similar zoanoids, say, Zerbebuth and Zerbebuth-R, I would agree to have them on 2 separate pages and linked together with a template, but we are telling a story of the Character Zx-tole and how he became Neo Zx-tole. That's a completely different circumstance. The same with Murakami and Imakarum. Let me try to edit the page first and see how it looks. If you don't think it's up to standard, the roll-back options is there to revert the changes. But after re-reading your post, I think I get your idea. We will still have the zoanoid data for Zx-tole and his 2 zoanoid forms, we will just have an in-depth page dedicated to Zx-tole. He's that cool to deserve his own page.

I have wiki materials for Neo Zx-tole, but I was wondering if we should combine Zx-tole with Neo Zx tole considering that they were one and the same person. the question is do we combine them in a single page, or create another page for Neo Zx-tole. I would suggest we combine them in the single page. I just want to clarify our stand since we have a similar situation with Murakami/Imakarum.

Looks like we need to do a lot of clean ups if we want to streamline all the pages. The main guyver page actually needs cleaning up. I've been doing some edits and still restraining myself as I'm not sure if what I envision of the guyver wiki would be the same as what you've envisioned. Like I mentioned previously, content is one of my weakest points, so I'm merely concentrating on formatting and copying from the Japanese wiki. I would even like to remove some redundant data, but I'm afraid that if I did that, it might prove offensive to the one who worked hard to create that page.

I would like to suggest that there be three major sections. First is the brief description of the character, second would be the history and third would be the explanation of the abilities.

Okay, reviving this. Browsing the list of pages for the guyver pages, I have found several redundant pages that were made. Some have similar content, but there are others that have different contents with both pages being relevant. An example would be the Gigantic armour page and the Guyver Gigantic. Both page have different content but are both relevant. I think we need to clean this up.

For me the three main techniques are as already mentioned (ninjutsu, taijutsu and genjutsu). Senjutsu is an elite technique that not everyone can perform. Just like the Kuchiyose no Jutsu (Summoning Technique). On the other hand, those three already mentioned are the three most basic techniques that any ordinary ninja should master. these were already mentioned at the start of the manga I think either during the academy days or during the chunin exams or somewhere in between. I remember this because they mentioned that Rock Lee, who lacks the other two techniques, makes up for this with his intensive taijutsu skills.

Speaking of Spawn, what's been happening to Al Simmons lately? The last story I've read so far involves the grand parents of Simmons.

Turns out, there are only 2 more episode of FMA: Brotherhood.

Haha. Of course you know I was only teasing you right? I for one have not been watching any anime as of late. Although I am following FMA: Brotherhood, I have not actually seen any of their latest episode. And that's probably the only anime I have seen this year so far. Oh wait, there's also Gundam Unicorn. but that's an OVA and not a TV series. Anyway, I do agree with your observations about the Toku scene. W isn't really something that got me hooked, and current sentai shows aren't really my cup of tea. Even the last decade movie was a let down. I'm not entirely sure about the quality of shows nowadays, but it's either they are badly made or I'm getting too old for this.

Could it be? Ryuki has finally stepped over the edge and became a... *gasp* Narutard?

Ouch, yeah, the Chimera, that was actually pretty sad, and yes, it's part of the story. But that is also the reason why the Elric Brothers have been pushing so hard with their quest. That is one incident that they could never forget. Although I think that they downplayed it in the new series. You might say that is also one of the "emotional value" of the series. Nevertheless, I'm quite happy with the ending of the manga. The ending of the first series really left me with a "WTF" moment. With the way things are, it might take you a while to finish Dragonball. Because there are still a lot more story arcs to cover, like the Red Ribbon Army arc and more tournament battles, which I think there are 3 if I'm not mistaken.

Ryuki, the first FMA series were not exactly consistent with the manga, and several elements were changed. True, the first series was somewhat depressing, especially the ending. Additionally, they changed the story halfway that really degraded the story like . But I can guarantee that the second series FMA: Brotherhood is a lot better. For one thing, the new series includes the character Lin and a lot of characters that make the ensemble good. Sticks very closely to the manga. And lastly, seeing that the manga recently concluded, I'm pretty certain that the animation might near its end as well, so you won't be left hanging. With regards to Dragonball, what compels me to watch it was the development of Goku. Another interesting aspect of dragonball is that the fights are utterly unexpected. I mean there was a point during a match that a certain individual won because of a ridiculously funny reason. Of course these all depends on ones tastes.

By the way, just to add to what I said, you might not find the "emotional involvement" that you found in Naruto because Dragonball is basically an action anime and doesn't quite have the drama that are prevalent in current anime. The story concentrates more on the struggles of Goku and his development into adulthood as a martial artist.

I have seen the original dragonball and I did enjoy it, the pacing and the fights are very well animated. Although it gets tiring eventually (this is probably because I kept watching reruns over reruns of a same arc in local TV). The story does pick up in the tournament. You get to see how powerful the old perverted Roshi actually is.

OMFG! The FMA manga just ended with Chapter 108. That means the animation will be heading to the same direction. And here I was worried that they would do a lot of those filler episodes just to keep the show from catching up with the manga.

For those of you who are familiar with Saint Seiya, here's a nice transformers parody of the opening credits: And here is the original saint seiya opening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Px2zX-M2alQ
